Lençóis Maranhenses National Park
Visit some of the following lakes: Lagoa Esperança, Lagoa Bonita and Lagoa Azul where you will have the opportunity to swim in the turquoise waters and relax on the white sands.
Iguaçu Falls Walking Tour
The finest overall view of the falls is from the Brazilian side, as it is said that 'Argentina puts on the show and Brazil enjoys the view'.
Rio by Night
There is no other place in Rio that embodies the 'alegria' or happiness of the Brazilian people more than the nightlife scene in the neighbourhood of Lapa.
Amazon Clipper Premium Cruise
The Amazon Clipper Premium offers spacious cabins with lower beds and inviting public spaces, but is small enough to dock at remote spots and cruise to hidden locations due to the shallow draft of only three feet.
Cycling Tour of Rio's Beaches
The beaches are an excellent place to watch cariocas jogging, strutting and walking their poodles in the sunshine. You set the pace and if there is time you will also be able to circle the Lagoa before returning to your hotel.
North Coast by Buggy
Pass the beaches of Redinha and Genipabu, one of the most sought-after beaches in Brazil. Here you take a tour of its spectacular sand dunes, you may also come across some secluded lagoons, perfect for a cooling dip!
Ouro Preto Walking Tour
Take a walking tour up and down the steep and cobbled streets of Ouro Preto, a masterpiece of colonial architecture.
Sugarloaf Mountain Climb
Stroll along a beautiful shoreline pedestrian path, popular with walkers and joggers. This is followed by a weaving hike up a trail with wonderful views of Rio's bay followed by a short (approximately 25 m) but challenging section of rock climbing.
Salvador City Tour
Fishermen fish from dugout canoes, locals collect shellfish at low tide, schooners lie at anchor, all protected by the famous Bonfim church, one of the most important churches of pilgrimage in Brazil and deeply syncretised with the Candomblé.
Cachoeira da Fumaça Trek
Cachoeira da Fumaça is one of the most impressive waterfalls in Brazil, with a magnificent drop of 400 metres. In the driest part of the year the water doesn't actually reach the bottom, evaporating into 'fumaça' (smoke) on the way down.
Macuco Safari
Travel through the dense rainforest to Iguaçu Falls, where you get to experience the waterfalls close up.
Maracanã Football Match
The Maracanã football stadium was built in 1950 for the World Cup and is the biggest stadium of its kind, holding at one point, before terraces were converted to seating, more than 200,000 fans.
Brasília City Tour
The city tour will visit the most interesting points of Brasília including some of the residential neighbourhoods, initially built for government workers then sold off privately.
