Honest insights from past guests on our Explorer Brazil tours
Sarah | Traveled in November
Such a great trip, from major cities to nature at its awesome best. Loved the tango and steaks in Buenos Aires; the incredible Iguazu Falls, fantastic to see, and feel, from both sides; pretty Paraty’s cobbled streets; relaxing Isla Grande; and the vibes and sights of Rio…..well worth adding on an extra couple of nights at the end. Felt perfectly safe everywhere, taking sensible precautions…..top tip, use Uber, cheap and readily available
Patricia | Traveled in November
A super holiday covering cities, history and beaches. Marcelo our guide was excellent, he worked so hard making sure things ran smoothly and everyone was looked after and happy. The Iguazu Falls are just amazing and the boat trip was brilliant fun. We had a lovely group and the weather was perfect. A great trip!
Kimberly | Traveled in November
Really great trip! Marcello was wonderful & really went above and beyond. Iguazu Falls were amazing. Both sides of the falls should be seen if you go. Christ the Redeemer, sunsets, Recoleta Cemetery. all fabulous. Wish more activities were included. Seemed like a lot of "extras".
Debbie | Traveled in November
Great trip with Iguazu Falls and boat trip a major highlight. Loved The Tango show in BA and trip out to Estancia. Marcelo was a great guide. Rio is amazing and we were so lucky with the weather. Fab views from Sugar Loaf and Christ the Redeemer and sunset at Ipenema Beach with all the people was fantastic. I think they should do an extra day in Rio. . A good group and we all had fun. Thanks Explore

The tour was a huge success in all ways and a wonderful experience. I was with a great group of people. The itinerary was good and everything was well planned. The gaps in the itinerary left free time to do individual things or join in with others. The Guide, Diego was a huge part of the success of the trip. He showed commitment to the group at all times and was always concerned for wellbeing, safety and keeping us informed. This was my first trip with Explore and I'll be travelling with them again.

Nicely paced trip with Ilha Grande a break from the cities and Paraty interesting for its history. No words to describe Iguassu Falls, just spectacular. An extra day or 2 in Rio advisable. Two nights at the rainforest lodge, Argentinian side of the Falls , would have been preferable to 2 nights at Taroba Express. Our guide Diego was very knowledgeable both about Argentina and Brazil, and struck the right balance between being professional and efficient and friendly and sociable. I would recommend adding this trip on to North West Argentina which I did before as the dates fitted. The contrasts in landscape were stunning and worth the effort of spending a month travelling.
