  1. Day 1

    Santos, Brazil

    Often the gateway to São Paulo, Santos rewards a closer look before you head inland. Brazil’s busiest port has shaped national trade for generations, especially through coffee. Its story unfolds at the grand former Bolsa do Café. Along the waterfront, a long garden-lined promenade frames broad beaches and everyday city life. The historic center offers churches and old commercial streets, while nearby São Vicente recalls Brazil’s earliest colonial years.

  2. Day 2

    Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

    Granite peaks rise above Guanabara Bay; the city reaches toward the Atlantic. From the port, the landmarks are unmistakable: Sugarloaf Mountain guards the bay, and Christ the Redeemer watches from Corcovado. Balance the grand views with street-level pleasures: Copacabana, Ipanema, and the leafy avenues of the South Zone. Choose one or two sights, then leave room for a long lunch and the city’s beach culture.

  3. Day 5

    Maceio, Brazil

    Maceió, capital of Alagoas, sits between the Atlantic and Mundaú Lagoon, with turquoise water close at hand. At Pajuçara, traditional jangadas carry visitors to offshore natural pools at low tide. Nearby Ponta Verde pairs a beachfront promenade with cafés and seafood restaurants. Explore the historic center’s colonial-era churches, or visit the Museu Théo Brandão, whose collection celebrates Alagoas’s folk culture. Then return to the shore for grilled fish and sunset over the water.
