Rio de Janeiro - Paraty
Travel by van to Paraty. Opt to visit a cachaça distillery or take a boat to some of the nearby islands and beaches. Wander the cobblestoned streets, take a boat trip to the nearby islands in the bay, or visit one of the many white-sand beaches that make Brazil famous.
Paraty
Paraty
Enjoy the slow pace of the small town of Paraty, a colonial town with fantastic architecture, lush tropical forest, and nearby beaches. Opt to take a caipirinha boat trip, a boat tour, kayaking, horseback riding, or take a 4x4 tour. With Paraty's stone streets and colonial architecture still standing, the town has some of the best examples of Portuguese colonial architecture in the world. The town is currently on UNESCO's tentative list to gain World Heritage Centre status. To preserve the historical ambience and walkability of the historic centre, only bicycle and pedestrian traffic are allowed in the area.

Pantanal
Pantanal
The Pantanal, a largely flat, wetland area about half the size of France, is still one of the best places on the continent for observing wildlife. The area is rich in bird life, including beautiful and colourful macaws and Jabiru storks. With luck and appropriate weather you may spot capivara (capybara), howler monkeys, caiman, giant river otters, anacondas, and anteaters.
