Brazil - Santa Catarina adventure

A visit to the spectacular Iguassu Falls, followed by trekking in the beautiful Aparados da Serra Mountains, staying in simple accommodation, then to Praia do Rosa beach for surfing or riding, (here you can visit Laguna where the wild dolphins help the fishermen!), followed by an exciting rafting trip before some well earned rest and relaxation on a beautiful beach north of Florianopolis.

Iguassu Falls

Days 1-4: Fly to Iguassu Falls via São Paulo. Driven to the Hotel Das Cataratas for 3 nights where you can see the spectacular falls and explore the walkways right from the hotel. It is also possible to visit the Argentine side of the falls too.

Florianópolis

Days 5-7: Fly on to Porto Alegre. Driven into the mountains, approximately 3 hours and stay at the rustic Refugio Pedra Afiada for 3 nights. This is a great base to explore the area and take day treks.
