Our Trips

Our trips are as unique as you are. That’s why we’ve curated nine differents travel styles, guaranteeing your adventure meets your mindset.

How It Works

We offer a Brazil that exists beyond the stereotypes

Our travelers are invited to embrace adventure and to experience different landscapes and lifestyles that can introduce them to new perspectives and a lot of learning.

Travelers’ expectations from their trip

We like to work on details, customization, and building a story for each adventure. We want each travel experience to be unique and transformative. This is our commitment to travelers.

Knowledgeable Team

In a country of continental dimensions, where a large part is covered by impenetrable rainforest, traveling in Brazil between one destination and another will require intelligent logistics involving stretches of air and also land travel.

Building Itineraries

We highly recommend requesting everything in advance for better organization and costs. It is essential to manage the dates, destinations, and experiences, negotiate rates, and confirm availability at each destination. After clients’ approval, we ensure all bookings and send the final invoice for payment. One month before the trip starts, we send a travel book of the trip with all details, orientations, some tips, our local providers’ contacts, and our 24 hours emergency phone number.

Creativity is a value for us

We love to create unforgettable trips!

Alternative itineraries for shorter trips

Beyond the big trips, some alternative itineraries encompass a diverse Brazilian experience without necessarily involving many flights, without making the trip more expensive, such as the routes Rio de Janeiro, Paraty, and Ilha Grande on the Green Coast; and Foz do Iguaçu, Curitiba, Morretes and Ilha do Mel on the Atlantic Forest Great Reserve.

A diverse and responsible chain of partners

We carefully select places, services, and people that make a difference and allow us to meet the expectations of different audiences. Besides working with experienced partners who deeply know each destination, Gondwana works with the principles of responsible tourism.

Get to know some of the fantastic experiences that Brazil offers its travelers:

Walking in the forest, cruising in the Amazon, learning about conservation, observing wildlife such as jaguars in the Pantanal, dancing and experiencing bohemian life in Rio de Janeiro, meeting indigenous people, and learning about their worldview; connecting with nature, standing in front of the Iguaçu Falls, biking along the beaches, hiking in the mountains, experiencing simple life with the “caiçaras,” and navigating in bays and mangroves, as well as tasting delicious local cuisine.

Family Trips

Our family trips provide a unique mix of tranquility, learning, and fun. The itineraries are created and organized to bring grandparents, parents and children closer together, while they connect with nature, different cultures, and experience new sensations. All tours and activities meet adults’ and small travelers’ needs. We care about safety and respect the local communities’ knowledge and customs.

More than visits to local paradises, our trips are invitations to look at nature from different perspectives and take back home meaningful and simple insights that can make a difference anywhere.
