See the Brazilian country by venturing into its tropical belly. The Amazon River runs through much of the country, so if you feel like seeing one of nature’s most impressive sights then investigate the closest expedition to your Brazil hotel. The river isn’t the only spectacle in the rural Brazil. In fact you will find plenty of outdoor sights to visit.
Iguazu Falls are just on the border of Argentina. These gorgeous water features look like a prehistoric world, with palm trees hanging over the steamy lakes that the water is pouring into. The falls are enormously popular with photographers, and for good reason. If you feel like taking a visit then be sure to pack your camera and a waterproof.
For a real taste of Brazilian culture there is nowhere quite like Rio de Janeiro. The city is full of places to stay, ranging from hostels for the student traveller to lavish city hotels if you’re looking to treat yourself.
During the world-famous carnival the city attracts two million people per day on to the streets, and almost half a million of those will be foreign travellers like you. The festival lasts four days and inhabits every corner of the gorgeous city.
Looking over Rio is, of course, the famed statue of Christ the Redeemer. Visit the statue and view one of the world’s most iconic sights. Once again this makes for some fantastic snaps to take home to your loved ones.
