Brazil Cruise Highlights

Beaches

On a cruise to Brazil, you’ll visit Rio de Janeiro’s legendary beaches, including Copacabana and Ipanema, so famous that they’ve inspired songs. Both are a constant buzz of soccer, beach tennis, volleyball, and beautiful people. In Salvador de Bahia, join the locals on the vast, white sand sweep of Flamengo Beach, where you’ll absorb the energy and zest for life that comes from the epicenter of the country’s Afro-Brazilian community.

Beautiful Views

Dramatic Brazil is all about jaw-dropping views. Two of the most famous are Corcovado and Sugar Loaf in Rio de Janeiro; head up either of these sheer, conical peaks for vistas of the city and its necklace of golden beaches below. You’ll find spectacular man-made views, too. In the 17th-century heart of Salvador de Bahia, you’ll be surrounded by colonial homes and churches painted in brilliant shades of blue, green, pink, and yellow.

Cultural Experiences

Brazil has one of the most exciting cultures on earth, whether you’re captivated by sultry samba, the dazzling drama of Carnival, or acrobatic capoeira shows. There’s music and dancing everywhere, as well as a rich indigenous culture. Sampling Brazilian cuisine is all part of the experience, from the tasty black bean and pork feijoada to bolinho de bacalhao, deep-fried balls of salt cod; and caipirinha, a tangy mix of lime, sugar, and cachaça sugar cane spirit.
