From the end of December through March, almost no city worldwide is as much top of mind as Rio de Janeiro. It’s one of the it spots for New Year’s Eve, and the roiling heat of peak summer does nothing to deter thousands of tourists from descending between that raucous holiday weekend and the Carnival celebrations. To help those planning to visit in the coming weeks, this week's newsletter is my destination guide for Rio.

As a reminder, this weekly newsletter is free except for the destination guides. The Menorca one remains free if you’d like a taste. Hyperlinked are the locked ones for Paris, Newport, Montreal, and Antwerp. (A workaround is that you could always just sign up for the monthly for $7 to access the ones you want and then cancel.)
