Brazil Tours and Trips for Seniors

Thank you so much for a perfect honey moon trip. A unique place in the world, colourfull, warm and with nature in the center. The hotel is located in the middle of the jungle, very comfortable and with very kind people ready to solve our needs. All transfers in time, and, again, very kind people to guide us to enjoy every part of the visits. 100% reccomend!

The Iguazu falls are so big and spectacular!!!! Hot weather, so many different greens and a blue sky. The hotel fades with the nature. It is located into the nature reserve, and it is very relaxing, including massages services. Very much recomended!

This trip delivered in bucket loads. There was wildlife everywhere we looked. Copious capybara and caiman. Three fantastic sightings of jaguar (a mother and two cubs and two solitary jaguar) and three amazing sightings of giant otter groups. Birds everywhere including imperious jabiru storks, kingfishers, herons, hawks and jacana. And it was great to be in a remote location on the Paraguay River. Apart from the odd fisherman in small boats, there was only our boat and one other from the lodge on the water. Most of the time we had the river to ourselves. The second lodge is a little busier and not quite so remote, but we still saw lots of wildlife including tapir, collared peccary, crab-eating foxes and a stunning southern tamandua.

On a positive note we had a great wildlife experience seeing five jaguar, giant otters, tapirs, ocelot and hyacinth macaws amongst many others. Tony, our guide, was one of the very best guides I have had. He spotted just about everything going and has an encyclopaedic knowledge of the birds and animals of the Pantanal. The not so good was when booking, the connecting flight from San Paulo to Cuiaba was booked from a different San Paulo airport to the one I was due to arrive at from the UK. Speaking to the Exodus rep when booking I questioned why the arrival airport had a different code to the departure airport and was assured the two flights were from the same airport so booked. I was not comfortable and quick online search showed that this was not the case. Fortunately it was sorted out when I then raised the issue again but no apology for what was a basic error. Following the two reviews from 2023, the connecting flight is now a 7hrs wait. While baggage is checked through to Cuiaba you must collect your baggage in San Paula and go through immigration control and customs. You can then drop your bags off at the Latam desk 4hr before your flight to Cuiaba. This info is correct as of July 2024!

4th Tour, 4th Amazing Adventure! I've been to Egypt, South Africa, GBTOUR, and the latest was Brazil/Iguazu. Expat caters to the exact type of traveler that I am. I want to see as much of the world as I'm able to and experience the local culture at a reasonable price. I'm not looking for luxurious hotels. That's not where I want to spend my time. I just want hotels that are clean, comfortable, in convenient locations, and safe; and that's what they deliver. Their tour guides are also very knowledgeable and personable! They really help to make the tour enjoyable. This trip started in Rio de Janiero then went to Paraty and Sao Paulo. From there we flew to Foz do Iguacu. A lot of sightseeing and some great dinners were included, plus there were optional tours. I went on most of them. Some of them seemed a bit expensive at first glance, but I think they were worth every dollar that I spent. It's also nice to not have to worry about making the arrangements or to wonder if the company I just paid money to is reputable. I saw everything that I wanted to see on this trip plus a lot of other things that I didn't even know I would enjoy so much. I almost always travel solo and have met some of the nicest people, of all ages, on Expat Explore tours. The majority are experienced travelers whose idea of travel is similar to mine. I've even kept in touch with a few of the people from each trip. I love Expat Explore's tours and highly recommend them.

Truly amazing! It has been my dream to travel to South America and after many cancelled plans due to covid, it completely exceeded my expectations. Every day of the tour was packed full of once in a lifetime activities. I've travelled to a few countries now and this was definitely my best trip so far. Our tour leader Zema did an excellent job at showing us an authentic insight into Brazilian and Argentinian culture. He was not only a good tour guide but also became a good friend. The activities were great, the food was great and the drinks were great. I would also like to give a shout out to Antonio and his family. He was a great tour guide and the dinner at his family house was one of the highlights of my trip (and most of us said this was also the best food we had in Brazil too!). Making our own caipirinhas and dancing was the perfect way to end the Brazilian part of our journey. We had quite a diverse group with many different interests and needs, and Zema did a brilliant job of keeping everyone safe and happy. I have attached some videos I made to capture our trip. I would highly suggest booking the Argentinian Falls and the Carnival Experience optional trips.
