This is Carnival in Rio, our bus will have mineral water. So sit back and relax in case we get stuck in the traffic as there is a Carnival Street Band blocking the road. Our drivers and Tour Managers will do their best as to find the best solution. Maybe a good idea can be step outof the bus and celebrate with the block. Our goals will be met anyway.
