国別旅行ガイド

Brazil, South America's giant, offers extraordinary diversity across a continent-sized nation—from Rio's iconic beaches to Amazon rainforests, from colonial cities to Iguazu Falls. This Portuguese-speaking country rewards road trippers with incredible variety.

Rio de Janeiro captivates with Christ the Redeemer overlooking the city from Corcovado, Sugarloaf Mountain cable cars, and world-famous beaches of Copacabana and Ipanema. The historic center, bohemian Santa Teresa, and vibrant street life during Carnival create unforgettable experiences.

The Costa Verde (Green Coast) from Rio to São Paulo passes through lush mountains and stunning beaches like Paraty, a perfectly preserved colonial town. The wine regions of Rio Grande do Sul offer surprising viticulture in southern Brazil.

Salvador da Bahia pulses with Afro-Brazilian culture, Capoeira, and the colorful Pelourinho historic district. Fernando de Noronha archipelago presents world-class diving and pristine beaches with limited visitor numbers.

Iguazu Falls, shared with Argentina, stands among Earth's most spectacular waterfalls with 275 cascades spreading nearly 3 kilometers. The Pantanal wetlands offer wildlife viewing rivaling African safaris with jaguars, caimans, and giant anteaters.

Brazilian cuisine varies by region—feijoada (black bean stew with pork) is the national dish, while Bahia offers moqueca (fish stew), and the south features churrasco (barbecue).

Driving in Brazil is on the right. Main highways are generally good, though conditions vary in remote areas. An International Driving Permit is required for foreign drivers. Security awareness is important in cities—plan routes carefully and avoid isolated areas at night.
