A Basic 8 Day Brazil Sampler Vacation Package and Tours.
With this package you will visit some of Brazil’s top 3 most sought after destinations –Rio de Janeiro; Iguassu Falls and the Pantanal.
Rio de Janeiro is a fantastic city of amazing natural beauty and where lively Cariocas live in a combination of work and relaxation, meeting at the end of the day on the city’s stunning beaches to watch some live music, exercise or jung hag around. Rio´s granite mountains surrounded by green forests and deep blue waters make it one of the most beautiful cities in the world.
What amazes us about the Iguazu Falls is their sheer size, over 3km (1.9 miles) wide and 80m (263 ft) high, their beauty is unsurpassed.
The mysterious Pantanal gives you another perspective of life. Everything lives in the forest and the river. When you see the Pantanal, you understand that we are just a tiny grain in the world and that the planet knows how to survive. It is an amazing feeling to take a small canoe into the river and see some of this incredible wildlife. We have chosen Jungle Lodges that offer walking trails, bird watching tours, boat tours, jungle night treks and survival tours.
This package offers privately guided city tours as well as nature tours to some of the most amazing sites in Brazil, whilst staying at very comfortable and relaxing accommodation in lodges, hotels and pousadas.
