There is no lack of activities to get yourself engaged in when you are in Brazil and it has something to offer for everyone regardless of your age or mood.
List of top 5 things to do in Brazil:
1. Visit Amazonia National Park
This is the hub of the tourist in Brazil. Soak yourself in the arms of nature and enjoy the cool breeze from the river. You can spend your time watching and spotting more than a thousand varieties of birds or get engaged in doing some climbing and trekking activities with your kids. You will also enjoy a boat ride through the Amazon River. No other place in the world can take you so close to the nature.
2. Attend the Rio de Janeiro Carnival
The carnival at Rio de Janeiro boasts of attracting millions of tourists every year. The music, dance and the energy of the people will make you fall in love with them and become a part of the carnival. The beautiful samba dancers will take your heart away in no time. Try to visit Brazil during the carnival to make the most out of your trip. Even though it may be a bit expensive to visit Brazil during the carnival time, it is a small price to pay for such a great fun.
3. Fishing and Bird Watching at Pantanal
This place is one of the biggest wildlife reserves in the world and is home to some of the endangered species of animals. Large fishing reserves make it a preferred destination of fishing lovers all over the world. If you stay careful you may also get a glimpse of some of the rare species of migratory birds also. The lack of infrastructure may actually help to take you a step closer to the nature. It is advisable to make complete arrangements before you set up on this journey.
4. Enjoy a Night Out in Sao Paulo
Sao Paulo has an amazing nightlife and some great night clubs where party never ends. These pubs and nightclubs are mostly influenced by western culture and play on the mantra of work hard and party harder. Or you can attend a themed beach party with your friends and get mixed with the locals. Spend your night dancing away in the moonlight.
5. Visit Iguassu Waterfalls
Iguassu Falls are one of the most widely acclaimed waterfalls of the world. The overall surroundings and location make it a perfect place to visit during your trip to Brazil. You might have never felt the same ever before in your life. Try getting a boat ride to reach just below the waterfall to get the most splendid views of the waterfall. Spending an entire day appreciating the beauty of nature is a good idea. Try to explore the local region on foot.
You can simply take a sun bath on the beach and relax or get yourself busy in playing games on the beach or get engaged in some real adventure sports.
South america is really a large nation, but all I ever see may be the Christ Redeemer Statue, that is really not so old. What are the ruins or ancient things in South america? How about other historic sites?
Thanks for the list, although I did them all while backpacking….
