Discovering Brazilian culture and its splendour enriched by migratory currents from the sixteenth century to the present day: this is the goal of our trip, which naturally begins with the Rio de Janeiro Carnaval, the most beautiful festival in the world.
After visiting the « Cidade Maravilhosa » which was the capital of Brazil (1763-1960) and the peninsula of Búzios with its wonderful beaches, we will dive into the Foz do Iguaçu Falls, the most impressive on our planet, stretching for 7 km on the borders of Brazil, Paraguay and Argentina.
Then we will head 3,000 km further north to Belém, capital of the state of Pará, gateway to the Amazon rainforest, marked by its rivers, its large market and its local cuisine, which is preparing to host the COP 30 (UN climate conference) in November 2025.
We will return to the south of the country to end our trip with a visit to the unmissable São Paulo, a megalopolis in full growth since 1870, which is the largest agglomeration in the southern hemisphere.
