The idea
Two weeks is the sweet spot for a first visit: enough to see Brazil's range without a forced march through airports. Start in Rio, fly to Iguaçu, then choose your ending — the raw nature of the Amazon or the drums and beaches of Salvador and the Northeast.
We build in rest days and buffers around every flight, because the best afternoons in Brazil are the unplanned ones.
Best for: Travellers with two weeks who want range — city, waterfalls, and either wildlife or culture.
