Rio de Janeiro
Brazil Uncovered
Treat yourself to a colourful holiday taking in the highlights of southern Brazil. Discover some secret gems along the way. Explore beautiful Rio de Janeiro and wander around the spectacular Iguaçu Falls at your own pace. See the Pantanal wetlands' incredible variety of wildlife on foot, horseback and boat. Carry on to an intimate hideaway tucked away on a forested coastline where you relax before coming home. We tailor this holiday so that it is perfect for you. How active?
This is an active though relaxing holiday. Although there are always activities on offer, it is up to you how much, or how little, you do. In Rio and Iguaçu you can expect relaxed exploratory walks. In the Pantanal activities are moderate and suitable for anyone with good basic fitness. Choose from a menu of daily activities including walks, horse rides and boat trips. On the beach, your hotel offers a range of outdoor activities from hiking in the rainforest to sailing on their private schooner. You can take time to explore the unspoilt coastline by foot, boat or sea kayak.
