itinerary

A vast, beautiful, sprawling country, Brazil covers nearly as much land area as the United States, and has regions as geographically different from each other as Arizona is from Vermont, and as culturally diverse as Boston and Salt Lake City. Getting even a taste of such an ocean of experiences requires time and air travel. Most of the itineraries below cover just over 2 weeks. If you have more time, by all means add destinations from other routes, or better yet, slow down and take things easy. It is a vacation, after all.

Obviously, the possibilities are endless. Our itineraries try to combine what is best in Brazil -- its people, culture, and music, its history, and its natural wonders, be they beaches, islands, or vast tropical forest.

What to take• Next is the list of things that you have to take for travel to Brazil, or something that you have to do before your trip. • Make sure you have a safe and subtle money belt for keeping your money. These must be the type that you wear under

your clothing as the pushes worn outside are a telling sign that you are a foreigner probably carrying dollars. An even better suggestion is to sew a cloth pouch into your trousers as thieves today are often wise to conventional money belt

• Make copies of all important documents

• Due to the electricy in Brazil, is recommendable have a universal electric plug adaptor.

• Long-sleeved shirt, long pants, and a hat to wear whenever possible while outside, to prevent illnesses carried by insects (e.g., malaria, Dengue, filariasis, leishmaniasis, and onchocerciasis).

• Insect repellent containing DEET.

• Brazil is a tropical place. Bring with you sunblock, sunglasses, and a hat for protection from harmful effects of UV sun rays.

How much will it cost

• If you go by airplane and get a decent hotel for one week it's around $4,000 including food
