Discover these top tourist destinations in Brazil. Whether you want to explore the beaches, sail in the Amazon River, or hike in the Amazon forest, there is a lot to see and do.
Sea turtle Watching in Praia do Forte
Go sea turtle watching at Proyecto Tamar in the Praia do Forte fishing village. This project started in the 1980s and has successfully protected endangered sea turtle species. Iberostar has an alliance with the Tamar Project since 2005 to protect sea turtles together. This is why the beach where our hotels are located is protected. Moreover, we always collect umbrellas and chairs daily so that turtles can come to lay their eggs and the light in our hotels is dim so that turtles do not get confused and confuse the artificial lights with the moonlight.
Walk around the Pelourinho streets in Salvador
Travel back through the history of Brazil on a walk through the Pelourinho Streets. You may have seen the streets getting hyped on Instagram as one of the most beautiful. And yes, you’ll get blown away by the many bars, restaurants, and of course, the incredible capoeira performances at the main square.
Amazon Rainforest
Visit the river tributaries or where they merge at the Encontro das Aguas. Enter into the heart of the forest using a boat and find lakes hidden between the lush jungles. While here, visit the wild jungle in Manaus, only 10 kilometers away from the rainforest, and watch wildlife roaming around.
Go up the Lacerda Elevator and visit the Modelo market
The Lacerda elevator connects Cidade Baixa and the upper part of the city, known as Cidade Alta. Make a stop at the Modelo market where you’ll find all types of arts and crafts to carry home as souvenirs.
Carnival in Salvador
Bahians from all over celebrate this festival in style and the celebrations take place during carnival week. If you're here during that time, you'll witness everyone behind the blocks. The parades play music on loudspeakers mounted on small trucks called "Trio Elétricos" all across the streets of Bahia?
MUSA Amazon museum
This museum packs about 250 acres of lush jungle. Within the museum you’ll see beautiful orchids, birds chirping happily, a lake, laboratories experimenting with snakes, and hiking trails. If you want an aerial view of the MUSA Amazon museum, climb up the 135-foot observation tower.
