Brazil Luxury Travel

Please note that the following is only a suggestion as all of our luxury travel journeys to Brazil are custom-made.

Luxury Tour Salvador de BahiaFlight to Salvador de Bahia. Upon arrival, greeting by your personal host and private transfer to Convento do Carmo. Built as a convent in 1586, it was later converted into a luxury hotel and provides its guests with a historical and authentic Bahian experience. Salvador is Brazil’s third-largest city and the remnants of its prominent place on the slave trade route are clearly visible in its culinary, religious, dance and musical traditions characteristic of African Culture. Enjoy the rich cultural activities of the region as well as a private guided tour of the colonial highlights of its historical center, Pelourinho, declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1985. In the evenings enjoy your choice of a variety of gourmet regional specialties throughout your luxury tour in Salvador de Bahia.

Flight to Fernando de Noronha via Recife where you will discover the magic of this isolated and hidden archipelago. Upon arrival, greeting by your personal host and private transfer to stay in a bungalow facing the ocean. Enjoy an introduction to this extraordinary island by your personal guide and end the day by watching the sun set over the ocean as you sip on a welcome cocktail.

The islands are a nearly private playground for people who enjoy wildlife and pristine natural coastal beauty. On your luxury tour in Fernando de Noronha, Blue Parallel will handpick from an array of activities and adventures and customize these programs to meet your interests. Spend the day on one of Fernando’s spectacular white sand beaches such as “Baia de Sancho,” ranked the best beach in Brazil. Hike or horse back ride through the rainforest on the pristine Capim-Açu trail or along the coastline to Praia de Conceiçao with your expert naturalist guide. Along the way, stop to snorkel and swim alongside sea turtles and schools of colorful fish in the crystal clear waters or spot the enchanting and rare birds flying through the trees and along the ocean’s edge.

Bask in a private luxury motor yachting experience complete with sashimi caught right off of your own private boat, washed down with delicious fresh fruit cocktails as dolphins frolic mere feet away. Those seeking adventure can experience the thrill of “Planasub” snorkeling and be pulled behind the boat at a low speed as you use a board to propel yourself almost 30 feet under water. Venture deeper below sea level as you scuba dive with visibility of up to 150 feet with your personal expert dive master or seek your thrills surfing on the ocean’s surface. At low tide, explore the many creatures found in lagoons and tide pools at sites such as Rocas Atoll. In the evenings, enjoy spa treatments and gourmet meals before watching the sun set over the ocean.
 

Fernando de Noronha, Brazil Luxury Travel

Welcome to a land of unspoiled natural beauty and the home of the three most beautiful beaches in Brazil. Located 215 miles off of the northeastern coast of Brazil and formed by volcanic eruptions deep in the Atlantic Ocean, this archipelago is made up of 21 islands, the biggest of which has an area of a little over seven square miles. Declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2001, the islands are considered key to the protection of biodiversity and endangered species in the Southern Atlantic. They are home to the largest concentration of tropical seabirds in the Western Atlantic and its Baia dos Golfinhos has more resident dolphins than anywhere else in the world.

Testimonial

“ Blue Parallel has identified outstanding local guides with vast knowledge of their areas. This made the trip a truly memorable one. Being met at the airport in Fernando de Nornonha and taken to the sunset spot with champagne was a first rate start to our stay. Extra kudos to Adrian for arranging the turtle snorkel excursion, again unexpected and a highlight. ”
