Brazil itineraries
Brazil is such a huge country that it’s impossible to see everything in a 2-week holiday. To give you an idea of which routes work best, we have put together a selection of three sample itineraries, kicking off with our popular Highlights of Southern Brazil. This starts and ends with two of Brazil’s main highlights – Rio and Iguazu Falls – for that WOW factor. In between, you will enjoy the colonial town of Paraty, the wildlife of the Pantanal and eco-adventure in Bonito.
Our Rio, Amazon & Salvador trip offers plenty of city culture, jungle flora and fauna and gorgeous beaches. Note that this trip involves some long internal flights and usually requires anti-malarials so is more suited for older children.
Brazil and Argentina for Families follows our Highlights trip, crossing into Argentina at Iguazu Falls and ending in the vibrant city of Buenos Aires. From samba to tango in under 3-weeks!

There are, of course, endless variations. You may want to spend longer in Rio (you can easily spend a week here) or have more beach time at the nearby resort of Buzios. For those looking to avoid too many internal flights, we suggest travelling along the Emerald Coast from Rio to the gorgeous Ilha Grande for some island R&R.
If your emphasis is on jaguars, we might recommend the northern Pantanal, where the chance of spotting one is slightly higher. The order of each location can also be changed around according to flight schedules and availability (the Pantanal, in particular, gets very booked up in advance).
All the family will enjoying exploring the Pantanal by boat – look for caiman, capybara, capuchin monkeys and brightly coloured macaws.
As ever, these example itineraries are just a guide to the kind of holiday that we can arrange for you. We will tailor itineraries to your own family, the ages of your children and any specific interests – from football to carnival! Please do give us a call as soon as you are ready to start planning or if you’d like to talk with someone with firsthand knowledge.
