Brazil and Peru Tours & Trips
Brazil and Peru - the two names alone create images in the mind. Imagine exploring Lima's districts, discovering Cusco's treasures, visiting Sacred Valley and Ollantaytambo, touring Machu Picchu, and experiencing majestic Iguazu Falls. Cruise Rio Negro, explore the Amazon, experience Rio, see Christ the Redeemer, witness Devil's Throat, and boat around Lake Titicaca's floating islands.

One of the highlights for me was the Tango show in Buenos Aires, really enjoyed that. The dinner and show in Cusco was a bit of a let down. I thought the accommodations were fine , nothing to rave about. I was not impressed with the Cusco hotel or the one in Puno, very noisy and no air conditioning so had to open windows to get any air flow and that of course only made matters worse when it came to noise. Loved Iguassu falls and the resort we stayed at there was very lovely, nice to have a chance just to relax by the pool . My husband was disappointed when we got to Peru , not because he did not enjoy the visits with locals and family's but thought the experience was cheapened due to the fact they always were trying to sell you something. I have to agree , it would have been better with out always having the try to sell you items and several people commented that they felt they should buy something even though they didn't really want anything. It got to be a little too much for most. There were a few days where we did not get to stop for a proper lunch only a store on the way and that didn't impress me , too rushed . All in all I enjoyed the trip very much , and I would recommend Cosmos to friends and family .
Ultimate South America - V

I enjoyed my travels through South America immensely. Here are some notes of mine that may be of interest to Tourradar and to Say Hueque: 1.) The tour guides were very helpful. Both their knowledge and their English skills were impressive (as I could hear when I occasionally listened to the other guides for comparison). 2.) The itinerary in Peru could be tweaked a little by skipping the hotel in Urubamba, going straight to Aguas Calientes, spending the night there and going back to Cuzco on the following day. That would give the tourist the opportunity to take another walking tour in the area (by leaving for Cuzco late on his second day in Aguas Calientes) or else to explore more of Valle Sagrada on his way to Cuzco. [I am not sure of the distances, but perhaps Maras and Moray could be done on the way to Cuzco by leaving Aguas Calientes early and the saved extra day could then be spend in Argentina exploring the province of Buenos Aires, Argentina deserves another day]. 3.) I was taken aback by price of the single supplement. At first I thought that the extra cost would be mainly due to the pricing policies of the hotels chosen for me, but this was not so, since in none of them did a room for single person cost more than for two people, and sometimes it was actually less (e.g. Waman).

What our customers ask about Brazil and Peru Tours & Trips
What should I see when visiting Brazil and Peru?
You've got to experience Rio de Janeiro it's absolutely stunning with Christ the Redeemer watching over those famous Copacabana and Ipanema beaches. Peru's crown jewel is definitely Machu Picchu and you'll want to explore the Sacred Valley and those mysterious Nazca Lines too. The Amazon rainforest spans both countries and it's incredible - you can actually visit it from either side. If you're looking for a comprehensive experience TourRadar's 15-day Best of Peru Argentina & Brazil tour takes you through all the highlights from Lima to Rio hitting spots like Paracas Nazca Arequipa Puno Cusco Buenos Aires and the breathtaking Iguazu Falls.
Should I book a tour or go solo in Brazil and Peru?
It really depends on how you like to travel. Tours make everything super easy - they handle all those internal flights hotels getting around between cities and organize guided visits to main attractions. It's perfect if you want everything planned out for you. Going independent gives you total freedom to create your own adventure but you'll need to figure out all the logistics yourself. The Best of Peru Argentina & Brazil tour for example takes care of all those internal flights between major cities like Lima Cusco Buenos Aires Puerto Iguazu and Rio plus they mix up the transportation using minivans and public buses to give you different experiences.
When's the best time to visit Brazil and Peru?
For Peru you'll want to aim for the dry season May through October especially if you're planning to hike the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu - the skies are crystal clear for photos though heads up it gets pretty crowded. Brazil's weather varies quite a bit but for Rio you can't beat summer December to March for that perfect beach weather. Here's an insider tip from TourRadar travelers: consider visiting the Amazon during wet season November to March when the flooding creates amazing canoe routes and you might see more wildlife. The Explore Peru Argentina & Brazil tour includes this incredible homestay by Lake Titicaca where you really get to experience local life and traditions firsthand.
How can I experience authentic culture in Brazil and Peru?
In Peru you'll want to take part in a Pachamama ceremony it's this beautiful Andean tradition honoring Mother Earth that happens in the Sacred Valley communities. You can watch local weaving demonstrations pick up hand-painted beads and cozy ponchos in the markets and definitely try local dishes like cuy in Cusco or rocoto relleno in Arequipa. Over in Brazil get into the samba groove in Rio's Lapa neighborhood and visit a Guarani community near Iguazu Falls to learn about their way of life. The Best of Peru Argentina & Brazil tour includes this amazing pachamanca dinner in Nazca cooked traditionally with hot stones in a mud house plus that special Guarani community visit.
What's the best way to get around Brazil and Peru?
You'll definitely need internal flights for the long distances between major cities and countries - there's just no way around it. The bus networks are really good and much cheaper but be ready for some long journeys. Peru's got these gorgeous train rides like the Vistadome through the Sacred Valley to Machu Picchu which are worth it just for the views. In big cities like Lima and Rio taxis and ride-sharing apps make getting around super easy. The Best of Peru Argentina & Brazil tour includes this incredible train journey through the Urubamba Valley to Aguas Calientes right at the foot of Machu Picchu.
