The journey

About this journey

This two-week route is intentionally ambitious, but each stop earns its place by showing a clearly different side of Brazil. Rio opens with the country’s most recognisable urban landscape, Iguaçu provides the natural spectacle, Salvador shifts the journey toward Afro-Brazilian culture and history, and Praia do Forte gives the final days a slower coastal rhythm instead of ending the trip in another major city.
