This trip drifts seamlessly between Brazil’s metropolitan and natural worlds. From São Paulo, head to the UNESCO-protected Pantanal wetlands for up-close encounters with the local fauna via canoe excursions, nature walks, and nighttime safaris at the 131,000-acre (53,000-hectare) Caiman Ecological Refuge. Later in dynamic Rio de Janeiro, tour the massive Rio de Janeiro Botanical Garden – one of the world’s most incredible arboretums – and visit the residents of the Golden Lion Tamarin Project before ascending to the top of Sugar Loaf to take in its stunning views of the city and Copacabana Beach. Finally, witness the stunning sight (and sound) of Iguaçú Falls, the impossibly huge series of cataracts that dwarfs both the falls of both Niagara and Victoria, from a helicopter. Nature surrounds you in Brazil. Become one with it.
