About Brazil

Brazil is the largest country in South America and in the Southern Hemisphere, covering roughly half the continent's land area and sharing a border with every South American country except Chile and Ecuador. It's a federal republic of 26 states plus a federal district, and its capital is the purpose-built city of Brasília, not Rio de Janeiro — a common misconception, since Rio was the capital until 1960. Portuguese, not Spanish, is the official language, a distinction that sets it apart from every neighboring country.

Voyzo's Brazil coverage reflects the country's scale rather than trying to compress it: Rio de Janeiro's mountains-meet-ocean skyline and Copacabana's curve of sand, the Amazon rainforest, the colonial gold-rush towns of Minas Gerais, and the Afro-Brazilian heritage of Bahia. No single trip covers all of it, which is why itineraries range from a compact six-day Rio introduction to a 22-day journey across multiple regions.

Several routes genuinely continue into neighboring Argentina — Iguazu Falls sits directly on the border, and a handful of itineraries begin in Buenos Aires before crossing over. That routing is disclosed honestly on every affected tour page, night by night, so there are no surprises once you're on the road.

Know Before You Go — Brazil

Best Time to Visit

May through September (Southern Hemisphere winter/dry season) is best for the Amazon and Pantanal, when trails are drier and wildlife easier to spot. Rio and the beaches are enjoyable nearly year-round but hottest and most crowded around Carnival (February-March) and New Year's Eve.

Getting There

Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo are Brazil's main international gateways, with direct long-haul flights from North America and Europe; the Amazon and Pantanal are usually reached by a domestic connecting flight from one of these hubs.

Getting Around

Brazil is the largest country in South America, and its highlights — Rio, the Amazon, the Pantanal, Bahia, Minas Gerais — are often a flight apart, so multi-region trips combine domestic flights with private ground transport in each area.

Money & Tipping

Brazil uses the real (BRL). A 10% service charge is often already included in restaurant bills; if not, tipping around 10% is standard. Cards are widely accepted in cities, though cash is useful in the Amazon and Pantanal.

Language

Portuguese is Brazil's official language, not Spanish — worth knowing, since English is less consistently spoken outside major tourist areas than in some neighboring Spanish-speaking countries.

Safety Basics

Brazil's major tourist areas are generally safe for visitors who take standard precautions, though petty theft is a real concern in crowded areas of large cities like Rio — sticking to well-trafficked areas and avoiding displaying valuables is standard local advice.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions About Brazil

No — Brasília, a purpose-built city in the country's interior, has been the capital since 1960. Rio was the capital before that and remains Brazil's best-known city for visitors.
A week covers Rio de Janeiro well, with a day or two extra for Iguazu Falls or Paraty. Two to three weeks allows a fuller trip taking in the Amazon or Pantanal, Bahia's coast, and Minas Gerais' colonial towns.
Rio de Janeiro's Christ the Redeemer and Copacabana Beach, the Amazon rainforest, Iguazu Falls on the Argentine border, Carnival, and a cultural mix shaped heavily by Afro-Brazilian heritage, especially in Bahia.
The Pantanal generally offers easier, denser wildlife sightings — capybara, caiman, and with luck jaguar — because its open wetland terrain makes animals more visible than the Amazon's dense forest canopy.
Brazil's major tourist areas are generally safe for visitors who take standard precautions, though petty theft is a real concern in crowded areas of large cities like Rio.
Given Brazil's scale, a private itinerary coordinates domestic flights between regions with private drivers and hotels at each stop, rather than requiring you to book each internal flight and local transfer yourself.
