Experiences

What kind of trip is this?

Most people know how they want a trip to feel before they know where it goes. These are the six shapes ours usually take. They combine, too. Almost nobody picks just one.

Wildlife & wilderness

Jaguars on the rivers of the northern Pantanal. Giant otters and hyacinth macaws. The Amazon by boat and on foot. These trips bend the itinerary around what the animals are doing.

Pantanal · Amazon · Bonito · Chapada dos Veadeiros
Beaches & islands

Car-free islands off the Costa Verde. The reef pools of the Northeast. Fernando de Noronha, and the 42 beaches of Florianópolis. Somewhere in Brazil has warm water in every month of the year.

Ilha Grande · Noronha · Bahia · Florianópolis
Culture & cities

Salvador and Afro-Brazilian Bahia. The baroque gold towns of Minas. São Paulo for food and art, Rio for all of it at once. We use guides who belong to the culture, not visitors to it.

Salvador · Rio · São Paulo · Minas Gerais
Walking & expeditions

The multi-day crossing of the Lençóis dunes. The Vale do Pati in Chapada Diamantina. The Rota das Emoções by 4x4 and boat. Longer, harder, and the trips people talk about afterward.

Lençóis Maranhenses · Chapada Diamantina · Rota das Emoções
Food & drink

The cacao coast of southern Bahia. Oyster farms in Santa Catarina. The wine valleys of Rio Grande do Sul, Amazonian cooking in Belém, and eating your way through Minas.

Bahia · Minas Gerais · Serra Gaúcha · Belém
Slow & quiet

Fewer stops, longer stays, and places most itineraries skip. For people who would rather know one corner of Brazil well than rush through six of them.

Costa Verde · Alter do Chão · Praia do Rosa · Atins

Five of these are already written up in full, day by day, below. The rest live on the regional map for now, and the planning page gets you a straight answer about any of them.
