Brazil

“Brazil is a huge country, full of diversity with something for everyone. There are the historical & colonial areas, abundant wildlife, the Amazon, the tropical Iguassu Falls, stunning scenery, beautiful beaches & not forgetting the cities – including the not to be missed visit to Rio de Janeiro”

Exotic Landscape

Some think of Brazil as the country of Carnivals, Football and Beaches. While this is true, it is also home to much more. Scenes sure to amaze the most demanding tourists.

The “marvelous city,” of Rio is a must, but tourists should also consider other exotic locations such as Manaus, Salvador, Brasilia, Ouro Preto,Trancoso. It’s also hard to define Brazil’s cultural heritage purely because it’s a mixture of races, sounds, flavours, colours, unique folklore and festivities.

Brazil offers something for everyone – mountains, fields, rivers, waterfalls, dunes, wetlands, caves, wild forests, tropical jungle, spectacular beaches and eco resorts. If your interest is in fauna and flora, Brazil has a very generous helping of colourful and diversified natural areas which can be explored on walks, on horseback, boat trips or diving.

Unique Wildlife

Brazil is arguably the most biologically rich country in the world. It boasts a variety of natural wonders and ecological zones providing home to an awe-inspiring assortment of wildlife, including around 1,800 bird species.

To put it into context, Brazil is considered home to the greatest number of mammal species in the world. The number of fish species found in the Amazon (the largest tropical forest and most pristine wild place on the planet) exceeds that of the entire Atlantic Ocean. A single lake in Brazil can sustain a greater variety of fish than all of Europe’s rivers combined. The Pantanal is the world’s largest freshwater wetland.

Brazil’s landscape provides habitat and shelter for nature’s most divers wildlife such as: Jaguars, Caimans, Anacondas, Red-faced White Uakari monkeys, New World and Muriqui monkeys, Pirarucus, Giant Otters, and Giant Anteaters.
