Monkeys, Caimans & the Amazon

Starting in the beautiful city of Rio de Janeiro, we look down over Rio from the tops of Sugar Loaf Mountain and Corcovada. Our Brazil family tour then heads to Manaus and the Amazon, the worlds largest rainforest. Here we stay in an eco-lodge, and visit the Monkey Jungle, go piranha fishing, hike through the rainforest, and take a night canoe safari looking for caimans, as well as learning about the culture of the local people of the forest – the caboclos. The old colonial capital of Brazil is Salvador, one of the most vibrant cities in this huge country. Look out for the Baianas – local women in their traditional lace dresses, selling specialities of the delicious Bahian cuisine, and listen out for the sounds of the drums beating throughout the city. And finally we spend time at Praia do Forte, with its white sandy beaches lined with coconut palms, and natural marine pools. Here you can relax on the beach, or visit the Turtle Project, or enjoy other options such as whale watching, jeep safaris or the sea turtles by night. Please note that bookings may incur a supplement for the included domestic flights depending on flight availability at time of booking.
