Brazil

Brasil - Emotion Awaits

By far the largest country in South America, Brazil coves nearly half the continent.  It’s fair to say that nowhere in the world do people enjoy themselves more – most famously in the annual carnivals, but also in the lively year-round nightlife that you’ll find in most towns. With its unique cuisine, rich culture, some of the most beautiful beaches in the world, breath-taking waterfalls, and adventure for everyone’s liking, you’ll be amazed by the wonders of Brazil.

Top Highlights

The Rio Negro

Brazil is home to the Meeting of Waters phenomenon, where the Rio Negro and Solimões River flow side by side for over 4 miles without mixing due to differences in temperature, speed, and water density. This creates a stunning visual contrast, resembling a "line" of two distinct colors, showcasing the mesmerizing forces of nature in the heart of the Amazon Rainforest.

World´s longest Beach

Brazil boasts the world's longest beach, Praia do Cassino, stretching approximately 150 miles along the Atlantic coast. Its vast expanse of golden sands offers ample space for relaxation, beach sports, and stunning sunsets. Visitors can also explore nearby attractions such as sand dunes, lagoons, and charming coastal towns, making it a haven for beach lovers seeking unforgettable experiences.
