Brazil is the largest country in South America and one of the most biodiverse places on Earth. It contains 60% of the Amazon rainforest, thousands of kilometers of Atlantic coastline, and ecosystems that range from wetlands to sand dune deserts — all packed with wildlife found nowhere else on the planet.
Akatrek connects you with local guides who know the floating villages of the Amazon, the hidden trails of Chapada Diamantina, and which beaches in Rio are actually worth visiting. Real Brazil, beyond the postcards.
Trips typically start from $30 USD. Brazil rewards slow travel — the more time you give it, the deeper it gives back.
