I'm Dan Blumenthal and welcome to Salvador! With almost twenty Carnivals under my belt, I can truly say that I know Carnival in Bahia from just about every angle (from down in the pipoca, from up on top of the trio elétricos, in with the afoxés, and alongside the blocos afros...you'll find information on all this in the Carnival section of Bahia-Online).

Let me know what you need (call me or email me), what you're looking for, and I'll do my best (as I have with so many others!) to ensure that you have both a great Carnival (check out the exploding drumheads toward the end of Hexstatic's clip to the right!) and a great place to stay!

I'm also a part of the official Bahia-Online gang, so if you feel like getting into that nonpareil Carnival-in-Brazil mood while you're checking out apartments, why not check into Bahia-Online's Hottest Rhythms, Coolest Tunes! and see (hear) what Brazilian music is all about!
