Brazil’s Big Cities, Nature and Beaches

Arrive at the airport. You will be driven to your hotel, accompanied by your guide.

Rio de Janeiro, brimming with colour, life and vitality, is one of Brazil’s most iconic cities. Explore the beauty and energy of this city and take in its major attractions such as Copacabana, Sugar Loaf, the fabulous beaches and of course the magnificent subtropical rainforests. From samba to Caipirinha cocktails, there is so much to experience in vibrant Rio.

Private Tour of Corcovado

Explore the Christ the Redeemer statue, one of the seven modern wonders of the world, on this half-day tour. This iconic Art Deco monument stands 98 ft tall with a 92 ft arm span, perched atop Corcovado Mountain at 2,300 ft above sea level. Completed in 1931, it’s a symbol of both Rio and Brazil.

Your guide will collect you from your hotel. Go on a scenic drive along the Rodrigo de Freitas Lagoon. At the mountain’s base, board a small cogwheel train and enjoy the views as you ascend. At the summit, take in the statue up close and soak in the panorama of Rio and Guanabara Bay. Afterwards, return by train and drive back along the coast to your hotel.

Private Tour of Sugar Loaf Mountain

Visit the iconic Pão de Açúcar, or Sugar Loaf Mountain, on this half day tour. The mountain is a cherished symbol of the city and is visited by over a million tourists every year. It rises from a small peninsula at the entrance of Guanabara Bay and it is named for its resemblance to the shape of a loaf of refined sugar.

Your guide will pick you up from your hotel and drive you to the first of two cable cars that will take you to the top. Ride up Urca Hill to a height of 705 ft above sea level. Stop to take in the stunning views of the bay and the islands. Then continue upwards to the peak of Sugar Loaf in the second cable car. From a height of 1296 ft, enjoy panoramic views of Rio, including the Botafogo and Copacabana beaches. Finally, descend down the mountain and return to your hotel.

From Rio de Janeiro fly to Foz do Iguacu. Once you reach, you will be transferred from the airport to your hotel. Your guide will accompany you.

Foz do Iguacu on the Brazilian side and Puerto Iguazú on the Argentinean side are gateways to the awe inspiring waterfall. They also happen to be the nearest cities to the intersection of the borders of three countries– Argentina, Paraguay and Brazil. The main attraction of this region is the National Park, with its magnificent 270 waterfalls and variety of beautiful sub-tropical flora and fauna.

Visit to Brazilian Falls with Adventure Safari

Go on an exciting adventure in the Iguazu National Park. Begin with a walk in the canyon to a viewpoint, offering spectacular sights of the UNESCO-listed Iguazu Falls. Take a glass lift up to a platform for panoramic views of the hundreds of cascading falls.

After, explore the vibrant food and craft stalls at an artisans’ fair. Then, head to the safari entrance to board wagons, pulled by open jeeps, for a scenic ride on a nearly two-mile trail. You can also hike the ancient rock stairway to the picturesque Macuco Falls.

Next, continue to the river dock for a boat tour. Use the waterproof containers provided for your camera and electronics. Cruise upriver through the canyon, passing striking rock formations and dense forest. Finally, approach the awe-inspiring Devil’s Throat section of the falls—prepare to get soaked as your pilot steers the boat into the cascading water.

Visit to the Argentine side of Iguazu Waterfalls

Experience the awe-inspiring Iguazu Falls, recently named one of the seven natural wonders of the world. Three trails offer different views of the falls and the surrounding jungle as you explore the national park.

The lower circuit brings you close to the base of the falls, immersing you in their power and scale. The upper circuit offers a contrasting perspective from above. No visit is complete without seeing Devil’s Throat, where you stand just feet from the thunderous cascade plunging into the depths below.

Accompanied by a guide, travel to Foz do Iguacu airport. Take a flight to Sao Paulo. Once you reach, a Portuguese-speaking driver will drive you to your hotel.

As Brazil’s largest city, Sao Paulo is known for its economic importance, ethnic diversity and fast-paced lifestyle. With cultural attractions, great shopping, a vibrant nightlife and outstanding cuisine, there is something for everyone in this metropolitan city.
