This tour features three of Brazil’s most desirable destinations. Angra dos Reis is one of the most beautiful places in Brazil composed of 365 islands and 2000 beaches. Rio, the “marvelous City”, synonymous with the girl from Ipanema, the dramatic Pão d'Açucar (Sugarloaf) Mountain, and the wild and outrageous Carnaval (Carnival) celebrations. It is a city of stunning architecture, good museums, and wonderful food. Then on to Buzios, discovered by Brigitte Bardot, with its 20 beaches, large and small, all within a few kilometers of the old town. Though small in size, the city is considered to be one of the best in Brazil for dining out, with over 20 quality restaurants, some of which are rated among the country's finest. If you're on a mission for a night out, Rua das Pedras is the place to be. Its nearly 4,000-foot-long main street boasts pubs, bars, discos, and restaurants open on weekends until 3 or 4am. But away from the “action”, it is still a quiet little fishing village.
Days 1 – 3
You will be met and chauffeured to Angra dos Reis, two hours from Rio de Janeiro, an ecological paradise. Arrive at the small and exclusive Pestana Beach Resort, situated on 55.000 square meters between the Atlantic forest and the sea. The resort has 27 bungalows, all with ocean view and air conditioning, individual safe, minibar, cable TV, DVD, jacuzzi, sauna and veranda. There is a panoramic restaurant, bar, private beach, glorious pool, game room, sauna and fitness center. The hotel also offers water sports, hiking and tours of Angra.
Your stay includes a full day private chartered sailboat w/ captain, ready to island-hop and explore the many deserted beaches and outer islands around Angra. The boat will stop for lunch at Ilha Grande, famous for its hundreds of beaches.
Day 4
Breakfast and a last leisurely morning. Afternoon transfer to Rio de Janeiro.
Rio is considered by many to be the world’s most beautiful city. Woven between 20 miles of white sandy beaches trimmed by green, rolling peaks. The most beautiful and famous of these beaches are Copacabana, Ipanema and Leblon. Enjoy a day at leisure. Overnight at the Copacabana Palace or Marina All Suites in Ipenema.
Day 5
After lunch, you’ll take a jeep tour through the lush Tijuca Floresta rain forest, a tour which shows off the exoticness (cultural and natural) of the most beautiful City in the World. The open jeep will give you a better view of the contrast between the ocean and the forest and between the luxurious condominiums and the favelas (ghettos) of Rio. With the help of an ecological guide, you will learn about the ecosystem of the Mata Atlantica and the flora and fauna that grows within.
Day 6
Morning breakfast enjoying the view, followed by a private tour of Sugar Loaf and & Corcovado. Lunch at Rio’s most famous churrascaria (BBQ). The afternoon is free to explore the “marvelous City.”
Day 7 - 10
Scenic drive up the coast (or if you prefer, you may opt to take a breathtaking helicopter flight – contact us for prices) to Buzios where you will stay at Casas Brancas, a refined mediterrenean style inn overlooking the stunning bay of Buzios, near the center of town, close to the night life and restaurants, and to its 20 beaches. The best way to spend your days is exploring these little gems, and snacking at any one of the many beach kiosks, all offering plates of fresh anchovy, shrimp and squid.
The city's numerous charms have waylaid dozens of foreign visitors since Brigitte Bardot's first promenade in the 60s. She may have left but many others have stayed, opening inns, restaurants, and bars and providing Buzios with an international air. Relax in a hammock, or listen to live jazz at one of the local hotspots. On your last day, you will be driven to the Rio airport for your flight home.
