Welcome to the largest country in Latin America, and undoubtedly one of the most rhythmic!

Our Classic Brazil escorted small group tour will take you to one of South America's most iconic and intoxicating cities: the buzzing Rio de Janeiro. You'll visit the incredible sites of Sugarloaf Mountain and Christ the Redeemer, not to mention two of the world’s most famous beaches, as you explore and fall in love with this exhilarating city, the capital of samba.

The tour finishes with two relaxing days in one of Brazil’s colonial gems – charming Paraty, with its most spectacular of settings: an exquisitely preserved colonial centre caressed by a blue ocean and adorned by mountains with lush vegetation.
