Christmas and New Year's Eve is such an amazing time of year and it is the most anticipated time of year for me. New Year's Eve for me in the past few years has been a time for relaxing and enjoying the night in my favourite bar in my home town with family or friends. However, last New Year's Eve my friend Lucy and I went to South America for Christmas and New Year's Eve. If you are thinking of going to South America for New Year's Eve then I will be able to tell you all about it in this travel review. If you're undecided about which country to go to, don't be, because Brazil and Rio De Janeiro are where it is at for New Year's Eve in South America. A New Year's Eve in Rio De Janeiro is truly one of the best ways to experience New Year's Eve.

Ok, we all know that Rio de Janeiro is renowned for its crazy celebrations all year round, including the Carnival in Rio De Janeiro that is on around February or March each year. But New Year's Eve is also absolutely massive and the best place in the city to be is right on Copacabana Beach. Here people gather and celebrate by drinking, samba dancing, watching the fireworks at midnight, and much more. The firework display on Copacabana Beach for New Year's Eve is something else, as they use expensive and very colorful fireworks, and these really last a long time up in the night sky and the beach and surf is lit up as well.

There are hotels to stay at the beach, and one of which is the Copacabana Palace Hotel. Although the hotel is very luxurious, it is still worth a stay. The place gives you an overlooking view around the area. It also has New Year's Eve parties, but the Hotel party entrance fee is around $1100 USD. If you are looking for an affordable hotel to stay at the beach, you may want to try the Mama Ruisa Hotel, an older, but also beautiful, and affordable place to stay.

If you want warm weather for your New Year's Eve then South America is the place to be. I don't know about you but I find it so annoying that during the holiday time of year back home in the USA, the weather in there is cold. We live in Minnesota, so most of the places close to me are just covered in snow. That's why I wanted so much to spend a New Year's Eve in warm tropical location. I certainly picked a beauty in Rio de Janeiro. The weather was so fantastic whilst we were there, and I loved that we could swim at the beach all day and night. Rio de Janeiro is possibly the best warm weather location to stay during New Year's Eve.

If you love mountain hiking, Rio de Janeiro has some awesome trips. When you have had an enough of swimming and the beach, you may want to do some mountain hiking at the Corcovado and Sugar Loaf Mountains. Aside from hiking you may also try out some different things, like catching the train up Corcovado mountain where the statue of Christ the Redeemer is located. Up there you will get a great view of the whole city.

Hey guys, take my word for it, I can highly recommend you check out Rio De Janeiro for your next New Year's Eve vacation.
