Southern Brazil is a region marked by the unique blend of its European influences, imposing natural landscapes, and discreet elegance. With a climate that allows for the experience of snow in winter and intense sunshine in summer, the South is the ideal choice for the traveler who values fine dining, wine tourism, and rich cultural experiences, all within private itineraries.

Where European Culture Meets Brazilian Nature

The South’s cultural identity was strongly shaped by European immigration, which is reflected in its Alpine-style architecture, a cuisine based on Italian and German heritage, and the hospitality of its people. 

This cultural charm harmonizes with breathtaking natural scenery: from the extensive beaches of Santa Catarina to the canyons and waterfalls of Paraná, including the Araucaria fields and the Gaucho Pampas. The region provides a journey of authentic and sophisticated discoveries.

A Collection of Iconic and Sophisticated Destinations

Southern Brazil is a true repertoire of diverse experiences, with cities that offer a balance between European charm and natural grandeur.

Foz do Iguaçu

The Magnificence of the Seven Wonders Foz do Iguaçu is a must-see destination because it is home to the Iguaçu Falls, recognized as one of the New Seven Natural Wonders of the World. 

The more than 200 cascades form a grandiose spectacle, which can be enjoyed through private helicopter tours or expeditions like the Macuco Safari, which allows visitors to feel the full force of the waters up close. The city promotes sustainable tourism with adventure, comfort, and security.

Florianópolis

The capital of Santa Catarina, Florianópolis (Floripa), is a location that perfectly combines spectacular beaches with a sophisticated urban life. Featuring lagoons, dunes, and historic areas, the island offers beaches for every style. 

Highlights include areas like Jurerê Internacional, known for its high-level infrastructure, and the more secluded beaches to the south, ideal for those seeking tranquility and contact with nature. The local gastronomy, focused on fresh oysters and fish, is a major draw.

Serra Gaúcha (Gramado and Canela):

The nearby towns of Gramado and Canela create an atmosphere reminiscent of Europe. Gramado is notable for its excellent tourist infrastructure, high-level gastronomy, and events, making it perfect for romantic and culinary-focused trips. 

Canela, which is quieter, attracts visitors with the charm of the Stone Cathedral (Catedral de Pedra) and the natural beauty of the Caracol Waterfall. Both are ideal for those seeking a cozy ambiance and high-end experiences.
