Brazil is a land so large it almost defies description. How to summarize a place that is home to both some of the world’s largest cities and purest, wildest jungles? How do you explain a culture that varies hugely from region to region, neighbourhood to neighbourhood? Or the food so fresh you could die and go to heaven, and the views so spectacular that taking a picture seems somehow unworthy…
You don’t. You just have to go see it for yourself.
But VirtuWorldTravel can supply the insights to help you get the most out of your trip.
Two Week Brazil Itinerary
Days 1-3: Sao Paulo
Accommodation for 3 nights – Unique Hotel (with exclusive VirtuWorldTravel amenities)
Sao Paulo is a long way from everywhere, unless you live in South America, so chances are you’ll be coming off a red-eye flight. But for those flying in from Canada or the USA, the time difference is minimal – way easier than a trip to Europe. It’s a jet lag-free destination.
Spend your first day getting acclimatised. Stroll to the nearby
Parque do Ibirapuera to admire the city’s largest green space – but don’t be fooled; Sao Paulo is concrete to its core and has high-rises that rival NYC. While you’re in the park, stop for a private guided tour of the Oscar Niemeyer-designed buildings and the excellent museums.
Spend the next two days enjoying the cultural offerings. Finding beauty in Sao Paulo requires more than a cursory glace over the landscape; the city is full of hidden gems, but you need to know where to find them. Highlights are the Museu de Arte de Sao Paulo, the best art gallery in the city (from local contemporary works to Impressionist masterpieces); a secret graffiti alley with some of the country’s most impressive street art; and the Vila Madalena quarter for hip boutiques, restaurants, and exciting samba bars.
In the evening, return to Unique Hotel for a fabulous cocktail at the rooftop bar and admire the skyline in all its overwhelming glory. Then hit the town to try Sao Paulo’s amazing culinary scene and world-renowned night life.
