A fascinating melting pot of cultures and races, Brazil is also a treasure trove of natural wonders, which includes the spectacular Iguassu Falls. In Brazil’s modern metropolises, skyscrapers surge towards the heavens, while only blocks away lie beaches of such astonishing beauty, they can only be called paradise. ‘Twohigs Brazilian Highlights Tour’ will certainly give you a taste of that paradise.

Our Thoughts

Brazilians enjoy life to the full, wherever you go you can expect a warm and friendly welcome. The Cariocas from all over Rio flock to the beach, it is their natural home, but beware of sea-bathing as there can be strong undercurrents. Brazil’s mood will captivate you but do remember to remain vigilant at all times, particularly in Rio. Do not overtly display your relative wealth, it can be a temptation to those less fortunate. Better still, leave your valuables at home. Brazil is a huge country and journeys between cities can be long but the domestic air services are reliable. Portuguese is the native tongue and do not expect English to be widely spoken outside of hotels.
