What people love about Brazil Tours
- Best of Brazil
very nice tour with perfect guide
- Best of Brazil
Well planned and overall very smooth. Enjoyed company of the other tour members and tour guide. One recommendation would be for tour guides to do a little more introduction (~30 min) of each city when we first reach one.
- Best of Brazil
A fantastic tour; well organised, informative and thoroughly enjoyable. The group was very well balanced in every respect and everyone got on extremely well. A really relaxed and pleasurable experience. Our guide Sergio was brilliant. he was always at hand if needed and was full of information about the places we visited and of Brazilian culture in general. He looked after us all and kept the group together although, with such a friendly crowd that got on so well together, his his was made a little easier. But that allowed him to be part of the experience. All together a brilliant tour and a smashing holiday. Well done!

The rocky paths lead to wide-open views that stretch across the serra's undulating landscape. Local guides Thallis and Guilherme bring the trails to life with their deep knowledge of native plants, wildlife and also trail conditions. After tackling the steeper sections, hikers can cool off in the natural pools of Véu de Noiva waterfalls - exactly what you need after a good climb. The best hiking window runs from April through October when you'll get clear visibility and pleasant temperatures, though you'll want to start early to catch those first rays of sun hitting the mountaintops.

Looking at both companies, Intrepid Travel tends to deliver solid experiences - their tour leaders know their stuff and the logistics usually run smoothly. But it's worth noting that around New Year's, quite a few travelers have mentioned unexpected schedule shifts. They handle the changes professionally, though it can throw off people's plans. TourRadar's situation is a bit more complicated. Some customers have run into communication hiccups, and there's been confusion about group versus private tours. We've heard from travelers who booked thinking they'd be part of a group, only to find themselves on a private tour instead. It's not necessarily bad, but it's definitely not what everyone wants or expects. The key with both companies seems to be asking lots of questions upfront. With Intrepid, you'll want to confirm holiday season schedules and backup plans. For TourRadar bookings, it's smart to get written confirmation about the exact tour type, group size and what happens if numbers change. Their customer service usually responds well to direct questions, which can help avoid surprises later. The actual tours from both companies are generally good quality - it's just the organization and communication that sometimes need extra attention. Most issues seem to come from assumptions rather than actual service problems, which is why clear communication matters so much.

"I really enjoyed my guide. She was pleasant and sweet. She knew recommendations for us to eat and tours to attend. Accommodating. When I arrived at the first hotel I was told the water was complementary. But when I checked out I had to pay for the one water bottle I drank. Second hotel.. was ok. Third hotel was the worst. If I had any physical limitations I would not have gotten up the hill. I think the accommodations of the third hotel put restrictions with people with disabilities. In conclusion, they only gave me one towel (No toiletries or face towels). I would not recommend this trip for individuals that are not moderately fit or have some disabilities. Overall I had a Great Guide that earn 5 stars

"My friend and I had a great time during our tour. From the time we were picked up from the airport in Buenos Aires and back to the airport in Rio, the prearranged tours were packed with the must-see spots in both cities but the best is the iguazu falls. We saw both sides (Argentina/Brazil) and it was awesome. The tour also has a relaxed schedule that we don’t feel drained at the end of the day. It was great too that there were free days so we had a choice to chill or just roam around the city. The tour company is very responsive to questions prior and during the tour. Thanks team for making our vacation memorable😘

Best places to start your Brazil tour
Rio serves as the main jumping-off point for most Brazil trips, with 49 tours starting there. Manaus is your gateway to 15 different Amazon adventures, while Buenos Aires, Campo Grande and also Salvador handle the rest of our departures. We've found booking about 56 days ahead works well for most dates, but you'll want to move faster during Carnival and New Year's when schedules can shift around. April through June and September through November tend to be sweet spots - good weather and smaller crowds, though the Amazon sees some rain no matter when you visit. Our regular travelers often mix things up by combining a few days in Salvador, with its colonial streets and rich Afro-Brazilian culture, with time exploring either the Amazon or watching wildlife in the Pantanal.
Discover Brazil tours for every budget
If you're keeping an eye on costs, we've got some really practical Amazon and Rio combinations that work well. Our popular 3-day Amazon package puts you right in jungle lodges where you'll fish for piranhas and head out on night walks to spot wildlife. Our customers keep telling us how much they love the bilingual guides and the genuine local cooking. The 7-day Iguazu tours cover both sides of the falls, plus you get time at the Bird Park with its 1,400 native species and also traditional dancing at Rafain Churrascaria. These tours are budget-friendly because they're efficient - you still see Christ the Redeemer, take the Sugarloaf cable car and explore those colorful Selarón Steps, just without extra add-ons.
The luxury Amazon trips really shine, especially when you're cruising the Rio Negro in complete comfort. You'll have private transfers throughout, stay in top jungle lodges and learn from expert naturalists. There's this particularly good option that takes you from Manaus's Opera House to the Meeting of the Waters, where you can watch different-colored rivers running side by side. For Iguazu Falls, our luxury programs include special viewing spots at Devil's Throat, private guides for both sides and excellent 5-star hotels overlooking the falls. Our luxury travelers tell us they really appreciate being able to adjust their daily plans and also getting that personal connection with local communities.

We'll set you up with personal naturalist guides for Amazon walks, arrange private boats for piranha fishing and get you exclusive visits to Caboclo villages. Having your own guide in Rio means you can get to Christ the Redeemer early, before the crowds show up, and time your Sugarloaf visit for the perfect sunset. Our travelers really like being able to spend extra time getting those perfect waterfall photos at Iguazu or lingering in the Amazon when interesting wildlife appears.

Our week-long tours link Rio's city buzz with the raw power of Iguazu Falls. Starting in Rio, you'll explore Christ the Redeemer and Sugarloaf Mountain before flying to Iguazu to experience both the Brazilian and Argentine sides of the falls. The Bird Park is a huge hit with our customers - home to 1,400 birds across 150 species, and they also really enjoy the evening entertainment at Rafain Churrascaria. If nature's more your thing, spend the week Amazon-focused instead - you'll see the Meeting of Waters, take guided jungle walks and visit native villages. The riverside eco-lodges make great bases for watching pink dolphins in the Negro River while learning about jungle life from expert naturalist guides.

Ten days gives you the perfect pace to really get to know Buenos Aires, Iguazu Falls and also Rio de Janeiro. You'll start in Argentina's capital exploring French-influenced neighborhoods and tango culture before moving to Iguazu where both countries' trail networks await. The final Rio stretch mixes guided visits to major sites with free time for Copacabana and Ipanema beaches. Our travelers tell us they love having multiple days in each spot - it means joining optional activities like the Ginga show in Rio or taking extra time to photograph the falls from different angles.

Two weeks in Brazil lets you properly dive into multiple ecosystems. The Amazon boat journey from Belém shows river life up close - sleeping in hammocks on deck, meeting indigenous communities and exploring Ver-o-Peso market's exotic ingredients. Another option combines Salvador's colonial African heritage with time in both the Amazon and Pantanal wetlands. Our customers particularly enjoy watching jaguars from riverboats in the Pantanal and seeing pink dolphins play alongside their Amazon cruise. These longer routes wrap up at either Iguazu Falls or Rio, giving proper time to appreciate Brazil's natural wonders and city culture.

Solo travelers click really well with our Amazon and Rio combinations. The 3-day Amazon programs put you together with other travelers while you learn jungle skills - there's piranha fishing, nighttime caiman spotting and comfortable shared lodges to stay in. Our local guides make group dinners social events where everyone connects. Rio tours work great for solo guests since you've got structure when you need it - Christ the Redeemer visits by day, group samba nights when evening comes. During Carnival, solo travelers tell us they love joining the blocos with their small groups and picking up basic samba moves together.
Couples pick our luxury packages that link Rio, Iguazu and the coast. You'll get private transfers throughout and really nice hotels with views over Guanabara Bay and the falls. Paraty is perfect for two - you can walk cobbled streets that fill with water at high tide and take private boats to beaches where you'll have space to yourselves. Ilha Grande works beautifully for couples with its car-free paths leading to quiet coves. The upscale Amazon stays fit well too - private jungle guides show you around and you'll stay in comfortable lodges right on the river.
Active travelers in their 20s and 30s love our multi-stop routes. They kick off in Rio joining street parties and climbing Morro Dois Irmaos for city views, then hit Ilha Grande to hop between beaches and snorkel in the Blue Lagoon. The Pantanal piece gets great feedback - you'll fish for piranhas, track jaguars on safari drives and paddle canoes through flooded plains. Our younger guests tell us they really click with this mix of actual outdoor activity and social time, from sampling caipirinhas in Rio to sharing stories by the lodge fire in the Amazon.
Senior travelers appreciate our well-paced luxury tours that blend comfort and culture nicely. These routes come with door-to-door service, quality guides and enough time to really take in each spot. Most combine Rio's key sights with both sides of Iguazu Falls, using good paths and viewing areas all the way. Many add time in Salvador to dig into colonial buildings and Afro-Brazilian culture. The Amazon luxury cruises fit perfectly here - you get comfortable cabins, expert naturalists and easy ways to experience the jungle.
Families choose the Rio and Iguazu Falls routes again and again for good reason. Kids get a kick out of spotting toucans and macaws at the Bird Park sanctuary while walking both sides of the falls. Our family groups tell us their little ones can't get enough of getting splashed at Devil's Throat viewpoint, and they love watching performers at the Rafain dance shows each evening. The cable car rides up to Cristo and Sugarloaf are always a hit - they're fun ways up and the viewing platforms give everyone space to move around. Many families appreciate the quiet afternoons at Lagoa do Japonês, where clear blue waters offer a perfect break between activities.

Spring brings ideal weather for exploring outdoors. The Iguazu Falls tours are especially popular now - from the Brazilian side you'll get those wide sweeping views, while the Argentine walkways take you right into the spray and mist. Our customers often tell us how much they enjoyed watching toucans and macaws zooming around the Bird Park's 16-hectare grounds. You won't find the summer crowds at Rio's main sites, making it easy to mix city visits with trips to Petropolis, Sugar Loaf Mountain and other spots. The calm spring waters around Paraty are perfect for boat trips, which our guests particularly enjoy.

Summer is when Brazil's coast and nature areas really shine. Many travelers split their time between Rio's lively beaches and the car-free island of Ilha Grande - you can hike to hidden coves or take boats to quiet swimming spots. The Pantanal's summer rains bring out caimans, capybaras and countless birds, making it a wildlife spotter's paradise. Our combination tours linking the wetlands with both sides of Iguazu Falls are especially popular with nature enthusiasts. The Amazon region is also at its best, where our customers love taking night safaris to find nocturnal animals and learning about traditional plant medicine from local guides.

Autumn hits that sweet spot between cultural experiences and outdoor activities. Most of our autumn routes start in Rio, where the mild temperatures are perfect for exploring the hills and vibrant neighborhoods. Many people add time in Paraty, where autumn brings great conditions for boat trips to secluded beaches with crystal-clear snorkeling waters. The Blue Lagoon day trips are always a highlight - our customers love swimming in the pristine waters between the islands. Some tours head inland to mix Iguazu Falls with colonial town visits, and the autumn festivals and shows at places like Rafain Churrascaria are always a hit with our guests.

- Winter 2025 / 2026
Winter offers perfect conditions to really see Brazil's diverse landscapes at their best. Lots of our customers combine Rio's cultural spots with Iguazu Falls - you get clear shots at Christ the Redeemer before summer's haze rolls in. Even in winter the carnival spirit stays strong, and you can join local samba clubs or try your hand at Brazilian cooking. The Pantanal wetlands are particularly good for spotting wildlife this time of year since animals cluster around the remaining water pools. Our travelers love starting cool mornings hiking Tijuca Forest's paths and then warming up with rich feijoada stews in neighborhood restaurants.
