Welcome to Brazil
The largest country in both South and Latin America, Brazil is a destination that will stimulate all your senses. From the minute you arrive, the vibrancy of both the people and culture will take hold of you. The best time to visit Brazil’s second-largest (and most well known) city, Rio de Janeiro, is between December and March when the weather is pleasant enough for you to hit the beach. $1 USD equals 4.06746 Brazilian Real (BRL), so budget your stay accordingly.
