Win a trip to Rio

Here's another chance to win a holiday in Brazil. Journey Latin America, Transbrasil Airlines and The Independent have teamed up to offer the prize of a week's two-centre holiday in Brazil for two people.

The winners will fly from Gatwick on a Friday evening on Transbrasil, arriving in Salvador early next morning. You'll be met at the airport and transferred to the Hotel Tropical da Bahia. A short taxi ride away is the colonial Pelourinho district, where the pastel blues and yellows of the tenements are home to the world-famous Olodum band.

A couple of days later you'll fly on to Rio and the South American Copacabana hotel, a couple of blocks from the beach.

Rio - where the tropical waters of the Atlantic lap the world-famous beaches of Ipanema and Copacabana, and rain-forest and colossal granite mountains are the backdrop to luxury apartments and colonial elegance. Rio - a cidade maravilhosa.

Don't miss the great sights: the statue of Christ the Redeemer overlooking the city, the forest of Tijuca, and Guanabara Bay. Or just laze on the beach.

Travel restrictions apply; the return flight arrives at Gatwick at lunch time the following Friday.
