At a glance

Brazil offers the perfect escape for honeymooners looking for that ideal blend of relaxation and adventure. Outstanding natural beauty combined with the exhilarating city of Rio de Janeiro makes for an unforgettable trip, and luxury accommodation throughout ensures that it will be incredibly memorable.

Your adventure starts in the bustling and vibrant metropolis of Rio de Janeiro, one of the world’s most exciting cities. There’s so much to do here and countless activities and tours that can be tailored to your interests – so enjoy soaking up its culture, go dancing until the small hours, or simply set up camp at one of the city’s rooftop bars and watch the skyline twinkle, with a caipirinha in hand.

Enjoy a cycling tour along the beaches of Copacabana, Ipanema and Leblon, before taking to the skies with an incredible helicopter ride over Sugar Loaf Mountain.

You’ll then visit the magnificent Iguassu Falls, where 275 falls cascade over almost three kilometres of the Parana River. Here, you’ll have free time on the Brazilian side of the falls before meeting your guide for a private tour on the Argentinean side of this magnificent natural wonder.

Next, you’ll head to the serene rainforest retreat of Ponta dos Ganchos, a simply magnificent five-star beach resort in Florianópolis. Spend your days unwinding on the tropical beaches, dipping in and out of the sparkling sea and revelling in all the comforts that come as part and parcel of a stay at this luxury resort.

Private tour to Iguassu Falls' Argentinean side Private tour to Iguassu Falls' Argentinean side

A stunning tour of Iguassu, where you get a chance to really get up close to the falls. Your guide will pick you up from your hotel and bring you by private vehicle to the entrance of the park on the Argentinian side. You'll then be taking the rest of the tour mainly on foot, exploring the various wooden walkways that lead through the national park to the many chutes of the falls.

One of the most spectacular sights of the falls is the 'Devil's Throat', which sees the largest flow of water. In order to visit the Devil’s Throat, you'll need to board the train at the Main Station or at the Cataratas Station, close to the Upper Circuit. For those who love trekking, there's the 1km (0.6 mile) long Sendero Verde (Green Trail) that connects the Visitors Centre to the Cataratas Station and to the Upper Circuit. Once you're at the Devil’s Throat Station, you'll have to walk on a flat walkway built over the Upper Iguassu River. This walkway crosses several islands and once you get to the end of the walkway, you'll be surprised by a strategic lookout point resting on the side of the gorgeous Devil’s Throat.
