FAQs: Brazil
What should I know about Brazil?
The giant state of Brazil is the largest in both South America and Latin America, and is one of the most multicultural countries in the world due to a century of large-scale immigration from across the world. It is restricted by the Atlantic Ocean to the east, while sharing its border to the north with Venezuela, Guyana, Suriname and French Guiana, to the west with Peru and Bolivia, and to the south with Paraguay, Argentina and Uruguay. In fact, covering almost half of South America, the only counties it doesn’t border are Ecuador and Chile.

Going up to Pão de Açúcar was an amazing experience. Alex Ribeiro was an excellent guide and he was super friendly. I would highly recommend anyone who enjoys climbing to go with Alex. The entire process of booking was very simple. Maca and Alex were both very accommodating and flexible with my schedule. I very much appreciate it. It will be an experience I won't forget.

Everything was fine. The accommodation was better than expected (private room with bathroom, air conditioning, mosquito net). Amazon rainforests are amazing.

Helpful guide and an interesting route to climb Pão de Açúcar. Conditions were wet so at times it felt a little bit dangerous, but we managed alright safely!
