Hand-crafted Travel to Brazil

Brazil, a country of immense diversity and vibrant culture, is renowned for its iconic Amazon Rainforest and Rio’s Carnival. The best time to visit the Amazon is during the dry season, from June to November, when river levels are lower, making it easier to explore the rainforest’s hidden gems and spot wildlife. The Pantanal is another must-visit during this period, when the concentration of wildlife is at its peak, offering exceptional opportunities to spot jaguars, caimans, and numerous bird species. The beaches of Rio, such as Copacabana and Ipanema, are iconic destinations for relaxation and sunbathing. Additionally, the breathtaking Iguazu Falls are best visited when the water flow is at its highest, providing dramatic views of the cascading water and lush surroundings. Brazil offers countless reasons to visit, from luxury honeymoons and adventurous family holidays to vibrant celebrations with friends, exceeding every expectation.

  • Experience the vibrant energy of Rio de Janeiro with visits to the Christ the Redeemer statue, Sugarloaf Mountain, and the lively Copacabana and Ipanema beaches.
  • Marvel at the stunning Iguazu Falls and take boat rides for an in-depth exploration of the surrounding rainforest.
  • Discover the diverse ecosystems of the Amazon with guided excursions that offer opportunities to spot unique wildlife, navigate through canals, and learn about the rich biodiversity from local experts.
  • Lose yourself in the rich cultural heritage of Salvador, and explore its colonial architecture, vibrant music scene, and Afro-Brazilian traditions.
  • Explore the colonial town of Paraty, with its well-preserved architecture, cobblestone streets, and beautiful coastal views. Enjoy boat trips to nearby islands and connect to the pristine world.

The weather in Chile varies enormously from the north to the south, and as a result, the best times to visit these areas within the same country are different as well.

For southern Chile, particularly the Lake District, as well as northern and southern Patagonia, the southern hemisphere summer is the best time to visit in terms of the weather, from November to late March/early April. The festive season in December, as well as January and the first half of February are the busiest times to visit, but it’s also when the weather is typically warmest. Most lodges in Patagonia close for the winter season between May and October.

For the northern part of Chile, particularly the Atacama Desert, the season is quite different due to the altitude within the Andes mountain range. Despite being one of the most arid deserts in the world, the Atacama Desert experiences a rainy season from Dec-Feb. Sometimes the rains are heavier and other times less so, however, there have been reports of flooding that have disrupted trips in the past, so we always advise avoiding these months if possible. The dry season is typically a better time to visit this part of the country, from April-November, however, note that in the height of the dry season (July/Aug) it can get very cold at night and can even snow in some areas.

Easter Island is visitable all year-around, with February being a key month for cultural events on the island. The temperature varies little throughout the year but it is typically warmer from January to March and coolest from July to September.

If you’re doing a trip combining both the north of Chile and the south, we would recommend travelling in the ‘shoulder’ seasons for both extremes, which would mean March/April or late October to early December, which would also work well for Easter Island.
