This Brazil 2 week itinerary will give you just enough time to tick off some highlights of this enormous country.
Our classic itinerary includes an iconic Rio city break where you can take an open-top jeep tour to the Statue of Christ and Sugar Loaf Mountain. Then, you’ll fly over to Iguacu for two days exploring the mighty cascades of Iguazu Falls on the border with Argentina. Next, you’ll fly up to Manaus, the gateway to the Amazon, for lodge stay where you can spot monkeys, tapirs, macaws and jaguars in their jungle habitat.
Finally, no trip to Brazil would be complete without the beach – so you’ll fly over to the golden sands and crystal-clear waters of the area around Fortaleza for a beach break on the northeast coast. From cities to nature, to wildlife - this trip packs in all the highlights into one trip!
This Brazil itinerary can be tailored to suit your requirements; please contact one of our consultants to start planning your dream trip.

Today we’ve included a day for you to Rio at your own pace. We suggest relaxing on either Copacabana or Ipanema beaches or if you feel you want to see more of what the city has to offer, why not visit the historic Santa Teresa neighbourhood? Quite bohemian in feel, Santa Teresa area is one of Rio’s oldest districts and is full of history and lovely bars and restaurants, perfect for sipping a Caipirinha and watching the world go by.
