Itinerary
Experience the magic of South Brazil on this unforgettable journey through its most breathtaking landscapes and vibrant cities. Begin at Iguaçu National Park, where thundering waterfalls cascade through lush rainforest. Continue to Florianópolis on Santa Catarina Island, celebrated for its golden beaches and lively surf culture.
Step back in time in the colonial towns of Mariana and Ouro Preto, where baroque architecture and historic charm fill every street. Feel the pulse of Rio de Janeiro, from the heights of Sugarloaf Mountain to the sands of Copacabana, before relaxing along the Costa Verde coast. Discover the crystal-clear waters of Cabo Frio, Arraial do Cabo, and Búzios, and conclude your journey in the tropical paradise of Ilha Grande.
day 1Gigantic waterfalls splitting two countries
Your tour begins in the city of Foz do Iguaçu, home to the spectacular Iguazu Falls, which literally mark the border between Brazil and Argentina. The falls are shared by Iguazu National Park in Argentina and Iguaçu National Park in Brazil, both designated UNESCO World Heritage Sites in 1984 and 1987, respectively. Iguazu is the largest waterfall system in the world, a breathtaking natural wonder that captivates all who visit.
While the falls are the main attraction, the city of Foz do Iguaçu has plenty to offer on its own. Downtown comes alive at night with energetic bands, refreshing drinks, and locals whose passion for dance is nothing short of extraordinary.

Customer Reviews
My favorite part of the trip was getting on a helicopter to ride over the Iguazu Falls.
I was excited to get away for a few weeks, but I had no time to plan anything. I looked into group tours and had found CharlieTheTraveler tours seemed to have everything I was looking for in a trip—cultural and adventurous activities, great food, and a knowledgeable tour guide. The trip to South Brazil was no exception. Every moment of the trip had something planned, which meant I was never stuck waiting for the next activity to begin or trying to figure out how to fill in time. My favorite part of the trip was getting on a helicopter to ride over the Iguazu Falls. The views were breathtaking and unforgettable!
I was able to see a variety of sights in different parts of the country, which was very adventurous for me!
I love adventure, so I was drawn to the itinerary of CharlieTheTraveler’s South Brazil for multiple reasons. This trip not only included adventurous activities such as horseback riding, but it also included many guided tours of different parts of South Brazil. I was able to see a variety of sights in different parts of the country, which was very adventurous for me!
I was able to experience the most beautiful natural sites.
I found the South Brazil trip planned by this company included a good balance of nature and culture. I found myself immersed in a culture I knew little about beforehand and I was able to experience the most beautiful natural sites. I really enjoyed exploring through Pantanal. I had never seen wildlife quite like this, as I grew up in a city. It was an excellent treat to observe animals in their natural habitats!
I will never forget going to Hito Tres Fronteras.
South American culture has always interested me. I have been to South America a few times on a few group tours, but nothing has compared to my trip with CharlieTheTraveler. I booked the South Brazil trip, as it promised cultural excursions that interested me. The company did an excellent job organizing the trip. Although I booked the trip for the cultural aspects, what really amazed me were the natural wonders we were brought to. I will never forget going to Hito Tres Fronteras. It was an amazing view of the three countries. I was overall very impressed with everything this trip offered me.
I don’t think any vacation I ever plan will compare to the experience I had
For my vacation this year, I wanted to go to a placed that I had never been to or heard much about, as I wanted to experience something new. I had no idea South Brazil had so much to offer for a vacation until I was reading CharlieTheTraveler’s itinerary for the trip. I don’t think any vacation I ever plan will compare to the experience I had with this company. They planned everything out for me, and even when things were left up for me to do (plan meals, explore on my own), the tour guide was quick with suggestions. The place I loved getting time to explore was Santa Catarina as it had everything I wanted, beaches and nightlife especially!
