Brazil Tours for Solo Travelers
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.

What people love about touring Brazil solo
My wife and I just recently completed a 10 day tour of South America, specifically Buenos Aires, Iguzu Falls and Rio De Janeiro through Tourradar. The tours were perfect and the guides provided were very knowlegable and highly professional. The trip was amazing and Tourradar provided tour guides that were extremely helpful and kept us informed and provided excellent communication throughout the trip. The entire process from planning to traveling was very exciting. This was our second trip with Tourradar and we are taking our thirst this summer. I love using Tourradar because of the combination of tours and our own time to see and do as we wish.
Brazil and Argentina with Iguazu Falls 4 Star
- Brazil Carnival Full Experience 6D/5N (Rio de Janeiro)
Airport transfers were as arranged. Accommodation and tours all were as good as possible due the very wet weather. The guide did his best under the circumstances. Only thing was that I was picked up for my tour 3/4 hour early .,. Luckily I was at the hotel as had thought of going for a walk!
- 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!
