Discover Guided Tours of Brazil


Most people don抰 think of South America went they think of going on vacation. Even so, there are guided tours of many



places on this continent that will provide you with an adventure of a lifetime and will allow you to see things few venture



forth to see. Adventure guided tours of Brazil may be just the South American location for you.





Most guided tours of Brazil begin in Rio de Janeiro, the largest city in Brazil. After getting you settled, your tour guide



may begin by taking you on a spectacular two-stage cable car tour of the Sugar Loaf Mountain. At the top of the mountain,



you抣l need to have your camera ready to take mountaintop pictures of Rio de Janeiro, Copacabana Beach and the lovely



Guanabara Bay.





While still in Rio de Janeiro, many guided tours will take you to see the sights of the city, including a visit to the H.



Stern Gem Factory梩he largest jewelry factory and store in the world. You may also visit the Corcovado Mountain, ascending



the mountain by means of a cog railway. At the top, you抣l have a panoramic view of Rio de Janeiro from the site of the



statue of Christ the Redeemer, sitting 2,300 feet above the city.





While in Rio de Janeiro, many guided tours will introduce you to traditional Brazilian cuisine, shopping areas, music



venues and areas for further shopping and sightseeing on your own.





Another common site for guided tours of Brazil is Foz do Igua琥, the fourth largest city in Brazil, located in Southern



Brazil. There you will see the stunning Iguassu Falls, a waterfall with a flow capacity equal to three times that of



Niagara Falls. The falls marks the demarcation between Brazil and Argentina. Perhaps you抣l stay in a hotel overlooking



the waterfalls.





Many guided tours offer you the opportunity to spend a couple of days at the waterfalls, including walking tours of the



Brazilian side of the falls and a motor coach tour of the Argentine side of this spectacular place. You can walk through



the Foz do Igua琥 National Park with views that take you to spots directly over the falls梚ncluding one called the 揇evil抯



Throat?





Take an early morning flight out of the falls area, where many guided tours of Brazil will take you to Manaus, in the heart



of the Amazon River valley. You may stay at a hotel on the Rio Negro just before it meets with the more expansive Amazon



River.





Guided tours of this area of Brazil would be remiss if they failed to take visitors on an actual Amazon River tour. So hop



on an Amazonian riverboat for a day-long tour down the Amazon River. Many such tours will let you stop off for an amazing



hike through the jungle and a picnic lunch in this pristine area of Brazil.





Guided tours of the city of Manaus are also available, where you can see the Indian Museum, the municipal market and a



famous Italian opera house. Then it抯 off to fly to Brasilia, Brazil抯 planned, national capital. You抣l go on a lovely



tour of the city, including the President抯 residence, the Military Ministries, the Itamaraty Palace and many other sites



of interest.





Other guided tours will fly you into Salvador da Bahia, where you抣l take a historic tour of this site of colonial



architecture. You抣l visit the Solar do Unhao, a restored colonial mansion where you can dine in the slaves quarters.



There are many sites and attractions to see on guided tours of Brazil. Allow yourself at least two weeks to see and



discover all that Brazil has to offer.
