Because I receive emails about New Year's in Rio on an hourly basis, I got together with the agents from Brazil's Flex Voyage last week, and we put together some special packages for those of you who are planning to visit the city.
We selected four hotels at different price points, making sure that all of them are used to catering to a gay clientele. I highly encourage you book your trip with the agents from Flex Voyage as I have received excellent feedback from all the people who have worked with them recently (and because I think it is better to deal with a Brazilian agent if you are coming here). I guarantee you they can cater to every need or request you may have while in the country.
In the next few weeks I will be featuring guides to all the parties, as well as information on restaurants and bars to check out while in Rio. Tickets to all the events can be purchased in advance through Flex Voyage.
The four packages for New Year's in Rio are listed after the jump with additional information as to how to book your trip.

All packages listed are subject to availability at the hotels, so I highly recommend you book your trip asap. Additional nights and services can be added to any of the packages above.
To contact Flex Voyage about our packages for New Year's in Rio, email Andréa Ulian at [email protected], and include "Made In Brazil" on the subject to guarantee the prices above.
All readers who purchase the packages listed on Made In Brazil through Flex Voyage, and email me the confirmation, will also receive an additional gift from the blog (let's just say for now that it has something to do with my obsession for swimwear). If you purchase other packages through the agency for New Year's, email me as well to qualify for the promotion.
Feel free to hit me up me at [email protected] with any questions you may have. If the idea works well, we will start offering new packages for upcoming events such as Carnival and Gay Pride, and possibly also organize a few events to entertain you while you are in Brazil. The idea is to offer a more personal approach to your trip, and to make sure that all your needs are met.
