Where to go in Brazil

Drift along Amazon channels for rainforest wildlife and indigenous culture. Cross the Pantanal’s open wetlands to spot jaguars, capybaras, and rich birdlife. In Rio de Janeiro, ride cable cars, walk coastal paths, and enjoy vibrant neighborhoods. Each region offers a distinct rhythm, from quiet forest mornings to golden-hour views over the bay.

Rio de Janeiro

Rio de Janeiro

Experience the vigour of the most popular city in Brazil, Rio de Janeiro, where the iconic annual Carnival meets delicious cuisine and cultural landmarks.

Known globally as the 'Marvelous City,' Rio de Janeiro offers a sensory masterpiece where granite peaks plunge directly into the Atlantic Ocean. The city’s rhythm is defined by the golden sands of Ipanema and Copacabana, where the vibrant Carioca lifestyle of sun, surf, and samba takes center stage.

For a change of pace, the lush Tijuca National Park wraps around the urban core, offering the chance to spot monkeys and toucans in the world's largest urban rainforest. Whether enjoying a private sunset at the foot of Christ the Redeemer or retreating to an iconic beachfront palace, Rio delivers an intoxicating blend of natural drama and sophisticated culture.

The Amazon

The Amazon

Explore the Amazon Rainforest during your holiday in Brazil, seeking out nature's most well-kept secrets.

Encompassing the planet’s most vital ecosystem, the Brazilian Amazon offers a journey of profound scale and sensory immersion. Here, the adventure is defined by the rhythm of the river. Guests can navigate the dark waters of the Rio Negro in private skiffs to spot pink river dolphins and kaleidoscope birdlife in the flooded forests.

On land, guided treks reveal the medicinal secrets of the jungle and offer respectful encounters with indigenous communities. Whether aboard a boutique expedition vessel or relaxing in an architectural eco-lodge, the experience combines deep comfort with the raw power of nature, actively supporting the conservation of this global treasure.

The Pantanal

The Pantanal

Visit the Pantanal during your luxury holiday in Brazil, experiencing mother nature at its finest and spotting the best of Brazil wildlife.

While the Amazon is known for its mystery, the Pantanal is defined by its spectacular visibility. As the world's largest tropical wetland, this vast open landscape acts as a wildlife amphitheater, offering South America’s highest concentration of fauna. It is globally recognized as the best place on Earth to track the elusive jaguar, often spotted hunting caiman along the riverbanks.

The flat, flooded grasslands are best explored by boat or on horseback alongside local Pantaneiro cowboys, revealing giant otters, capybaras, and vibrant hyacinth macaws. Guests stay in intimate ecological lodges that prioritize conservation, ensuring a luxurious and immersive front-row seat to nature’s most vibrant daily drama.

"My wife and I agreed that our holiday in Cambodia was without doubt the best we have ever had. [...] It was the absolute brilliance of the staff of the company at every level [...] and when due to a travel delay, caused by extreme weather, rearranging and supporting us in a way that actually enhanced our holiday!"

"We have planned a leopard searching safari, we received the most accurate indications to find them. [...] We stayed in Kafunta and Three Rivers in South Luangwa National Park in Zambia, then moved to Umkumbe and Kambaku in South Africa. All this was seamless, made easy for a couple 60+."

"We just got back from a 2 week trip to Japan. From our arrival to our departure, everything was fantastic! [...] The itinerary was great and having guides for most of our excursions made everything so much more enriching. [...] If they could figure out a way to instantly cure jet lag, they’d get a sixth star."
