vacation. Even so, there are guided tours of many places on this
continent that will provide you with an adventure of a lifetime and
will allow you to see things few venture forth to see. Adventure
guided tours of Brazil may be just the South American location for
you.Most guided tours of Brazil begin in Rio de Janeiro, the largest
city in Brazil. After getting you settled, your tour guide may begin
by taking you on a spectacular two-stage cable car tour of the Sugar
Loaf Mountain. At the top of the mountain, you'll need to have your
camera ready to take mountaintop pictures of Rio de Janeiro,
Copacabana Beach and the lovely Guanabara Bay.While still in Rio de
Janeiro, many guided tours will take you to see the sights of the
city, including a visit to the H. Stern Gem Factory the largest
jewelry factory and store in the world. You may also visit the
Corcovado Mountain, ascending the mountain by means of a cog railway.
At the top, you'll have a panoramic view of Rio de Janeiro from the
site of the statue of Christ the Redeemer, sitting 2,300 feet above
the city.While in Rio de Janeiro, many guided tours will introduce you
to traditional Brazilian cuisine, shopping areas, music venues and
areas for further shopping and sightseeing on your own. Another common
site for guided tours of Brazil is Foz do Iguar, the fourth largest
city in Brazil, located in Southern Brazil. There you will see the
stunning Iguassu Falls, a waterfall with a flow capacity equal to
three times that of Niagara Falls. The falls marks the demarcation
between Brazil and Argentina. Perhaps you'll stay in a hotel
overlooking the waterfalls.Many guided tours offer you the opportunity
to spend a couple of days at the waterfalls, including walking tours
of the Brazilian side of the falls and a motor coach tour of the
Argentine side of this spectacular place. You can walk through the Foz
do Igua National Park with views that take you to spots directly over
the falls including one called the evil Throat?Take an early morning
flight out of the falls area, where many guided tours of Brazil will
take you to Manaus, in the heart of the Amazon River valley. You may
stay at a hotel on the Rio Negro just before it meets with the more
expansive Amazon River.Guided tours of this area of Brazil would be
remiss if they failed to take visitors on an actual Amazon River tour.

River. Many such tours will let you stop off for an amazing hike
through the jungle and a picnic lunch in this pristine area of
Brazil.Guided tours of the city of Manaus are also available, where

Palace and many other sites of interest.Other guided tours will fly
