Foz do Iguaçu

Transfer Foz do Iguaçu Airport / Foz do Iguaçu Hotel

Upon arrival, you will be transferred to your hotel in Foz do Iguaçu.

Located at the meeting point of Brazil, Argentina, and Paraguay, Foz do Iguaçu is home to one of the most spectacular natural wonders on Earth: the Iguazú Falls. Surrounded by lush Atlantic rainforest and rich biodiversity, this vibrant destination offers a unique combination of breathtaking landscapes, wildlife, and outdoor adventures, making it one of Brazil’s most unforgettable gateways to nature.

Foz de Iguazu

Full-Day Iguazú Falls Argentine side

In the morning, we will pick you up from your hotel to spend the day exploring the Argentine side of Iguazú National Park, which covers 677 km².
The falls are surrounded by a subtropical forest with exuberant vegetation, home to many different species of wildlife such as toucans, parrots and coatis, just to name a few.

Different walkways distributed across three trails (Upper, Lower, and Devil’s Throat) will allow you to get close to the waterfalls from many different perspectives. You will be amazed by the force of millions of liters of water falling at different heights.
To reach the famous Devil’s Throat, the most imposing waterfall, we will take the ecological train, so you will save a bit of energy to continue exploring the park.

At the end of the excursion, you will be transferred back to your hotel.

 

Great Adventure: Semi-rigid boat navigation on the Iguazú River and 4×4 tour through the jungle

The Great Adventure complements the visit to the Argentine side of the Iguazú National Park with an adrenaline rush for being just meters away from the most important falls and a jungle tour in a 4×4 vehicle.

We will meet at a starting point that will be informed to you before the excursion. Once there, we will board a 4×4 truck that will take us deep into the Missionary jungle along the Yacaratiá and Puerto Macuco trails for 5 kilometers. We will continue with a 100-meter descent by stairs to board a semi-rigid boat that will take us on a 6-kilometer journey along the Iguazú River, getting close to the foot of the Devil’s Throat. Then, we will face the San Martín and Tres Mosqueteros falls, enjoying the famous “water baptism.”

At the end of the adventure, you will have the opportunity to change out of your wet clothes and there will be a rest period before we resume the return journey to the meeting point in the service area.

Foz de Iguazu

Half-Day Iguazú Falls Brazilian side

Today we will pick you up from your hotel to enjoy a trip to the Brazilian side of the Iguaçu National Park for the best panoramic view of the falls.
We will start the tour at the Visitor Center, which serves as a transfer hub, as accessing the trails requires boarding panoramic Autobuses that transport visitors within the park.

The walkway route extends for 1,200 meters, offering a spectacular panoramic view of the 275 waterfalls that make up the Iguazú Falls. The most important on the Brazilian side are four: Floriano, Deodoro, Benjamín Constant, and Salto Unión or Devil’s Throat. Once the tour is completed, we will arrive at the panoramic elevator, which will allow us to return to the bus that will take us back to the entrance gate.

Finally, we will take you back to your hotel.

Rio de Janeiro

Full-Day Corcovado and Sugar Loaf

Depart from the hotel after breakfast to visit the most famous landmarks of the city and see the natural beauty of Rio de Janeiro from up above. Over a million tourists each year visit the world famous ‘Pão de Açúcar’, (Sugar Loaf Mountain), which has become an iconic symbol of the city of Rio de Janeiro.

Rising up from a small peninsula at the entrance of Guanabara Bay, its name is said to refer to its resemblance to the traditional shape of a concentrated, refined sugar loaf. The journey to the top is made in glass cable-cars. The first cable-car takes passengers to the top of Urca Hill, which rises 215 meters above sea level and offers spectacular views of the entire bay and its surrounding islands. From Urca Hill, passengers continue in a second cable-car to the top of Sugar Loaf which rises 395 meters above sea level and offers a 360 degree view of the entire city including Botafogo and Copacabana Beaches, Corcovado Mountain and downtown Rio de Janeiro. Afterwards, descend the mountain and stop for a delicious lunch.

From there passengers will be taken to the bottom of the Corcovado Hill. Embark on a comfortable train that ascends the mountain, where the statue of Christ the Redeemer is located 2,300 ft above sea level. The Christ statue, known as the “wonder of Rio””, was elected one of the 7 “New Wonders of the World”. Upon arrival at the top, guests can use the panoramic elevators or escalators to arrive at the foot of the statute. There, passengers can enjoy a panoramic view of Rio de Janeiro and discover why it is called the “Marvelous City”.

Finally, we will take you back to your hotel.

Full-Day Angra dos Reis

Today, we will pick you up from your hotel to discover the beauties of Angra dos Reis and Ilha Grande on an unforgettable experience along Rio de Janeiro’s Costa Verde. After the pick-up from your hotel in the South Zone, you will begin the journey to Angra dos Reis, where you will board a traditional schooner to explore some of the most paradisiacal beaches and islands in the region.

During the navigation, you will make different stops to swim and relax in crystal-clear waters. The first stop will be at the famous Botinas Islands, one of Angra’s most iconic landscapes, known for their calm waters in different shades of blue. You will then continue to Ilha Grande to visit the spectacular Blue Lagoon, a true natural aquarium ideal for snorkeling and observing colorful fish, corals, and starfish.
