The largest country in South America, Brazil is famous for its football tradition and its annual Carnaval in Rio de Janeiro. It is a country of great diversity from its magnificent beaches, to the urban mosaic of Sao Paulo and to the vast rain forests of the Amazon. Brazil’s rich ecosystems make for some amazing journeys, too. You can go horseback-riding through the Pantanal near Campo Grande in search of monkeys and capybara, or whale-watching off the coast of Santa Catarina. There are unforgettable river trips up the Amazon from Manaus, descents into waterfall-cooled canyons, refreshing dips in forest streams and ascents up rocky clifftops to breathtaking views. The famous Christ the Redeemer on top of Corcovado Mountain is the symbol of Brazil, His arms stretched protecting the city.
