Question by Chet: What are the pros and cons of using a travel agent to plan a vacation to Brazil?
Hello Everyone! My girlfriend wants to travel to Brazil next year for carnival, and would like to use a travel agent to plan our arrangements, while I would much rather plan everything on my own using the internet as a primary resource. Could anyone tell me the benefits and negative aspects of using a travel agent to plan a vacation of this type? Also, I would really appreciate it if anyone who recently traveled to Rio De Janiero could share some opinions and perhaps “insider” tips on traveling to this destination. Thank you.

Hello, I can give you some tips, first of all, you really don’t need to use a travel agent to come here. Everything here is very cheap. The people normally don’t speak English, but you will fell welcome in almost places you go.
Try to search another place to go, Rio de Janeiro is the most dangerous town in our country.
Recife is a very Beautiful place and it has a famous carnival parade, “o galo da madrugada”. Where there are almost 2 million people walking, dancing and singing trough the streets for 3 miles.
The beaches around this town are marvelous. “Porto de Galinhas”…”Tamandare”…..”Boa Viagem”….You will apreciate.
Good luck and be wellcome.

05 Sep 2010 Parque Lage In Rio De Janeiro Is A Hidden Gem Well Worth Dropping In One Sunny Day Of Your Vacation By Dehouche Travel

Parque Lage In Rio De Janeiro Is A Hidden Gem Well Worth Dropping In One Sunny Day Of Your Vacation By Dehouche Travel

When thermometers rise in Rio and shady spots are sought out, it’s important to know where to go to escape both the heat and the crowds. Leafy Jardim Botânico is certainly enticing, but local luxury travel experts Dehouche recommend bypassing the hordes pouring in here and heading instead to its slightly younger sister, Parque Lage, lying just a little further down the street.

 Ask a Carioca when they last went to ‘Sugarloaf’ and they’ll reply that it was several years ago when their cousin last visited from São Paulo. Ask them when they last went to ‘Parque Lage’ and the more likely response is that they have never actually been. Dehouche suggest taking advantage of this heinous oversight.

 Parque Lage lies at the foot of Corcovado, far enough away from the traffic roaring down ‘Rua Jardim Botânico’ that it’s easy to forget the hustle of the city. Backed by acres of Atlantic rainforest and with the lagoon just in front, it benefits from a more agreeable temperature than many other parts of the city.

The park’s life began back in the early 19th century when English landscape architect John Tyndale was commissioned to design the gardens, imprinting upon the landscape the romantic style so popular in his home country at that time. In the mid 18th century the land was acquired by the Lage family in whose hands it stayed until 1913.

After a brief spell in possession of another, the park was re-appropriated by Henrique Lage in 1920, who in the same decade invited Italian architect Mario Vodret, to redesign both the gardens and impressive colonial mansion which today stands at their forefront. The eclectic style he brought with him was greatly appreciated by Henrique’s wife, Italian singer Gabriela Bezanzoni, at that time a prominent figure on the Carioca party circuit and known for hosting lavish events. Sadly, Parque Lage’s heyday was short lived and Henrique was later forced to sell the property to pay his debts. Fortunately however, the park was saved by the state, receiving protection as part of the city’s cultural heritage and opening to the public in the 1960s.

 Climb the steps to the mansion and inside discover the scene which pleased Gabriela so much; an incandescent green swimming pool encircled by a courtyard, the imposing architecture of the mansion reflected in its still waters. Take a seat under the arches, where the comfortable low tables of the café are adorned generously with cushions and interspersed with displays of artwork from the art school housed here today. Order one of the delicious home made quiches before they are swiped from the kitchen window by the monkeys from the park behind.

 Dehouche particularly recommend stopping by for the weekend buffet breakfast, when the courtyard fills with live music, as the perfect way to start the day on your honeymoon. If you manage to resist the temptation to overindulge, linger long enough to explore the rambling park behind; if you’re feeling particularly adventurous, it’s possible to hike through the subtropical rainforest to the summit of Corcovado itself.

Let Dehouche arrange your luxury boutique and enjoy a whole host of insider tips on where to truly escape from it all on your honeymoon.

30 Aug 2010 Q&A: Can I fit carnaval 2007 in Salvador into my vacation?
 |  Category: Cities  | Tags: , , , ,  | 2 Comments

Question by Daniel J: Can I fit carnaval 2007 in Salvador into my vacation?
Hi,
Simple question – I have off from Feb 10-18, 2007 for vacation from work, and I’ve always wanted to go to Salvador for carnaval. It looks like the main part of carnaval/ Mardi Gras day is Feb 20. How much action would be going on from Feb 11-17 (I live in atlanta, and all the flights I can afford take about a day each way, so I’m giving myself a day for travel on either side). So my question is : is enough going on to make it worth the money, or should I go some other time when I get to spend more of actual carnaval in Brazil. I’ve already been to salvador twice, so I wouldn’t be going just to visit the city.

25 Aug 2010 Florianopolis Brazil – the Vacation of a Lifetime!
 |  Category: Accomodation  | Tags: , , ,  | Leave a Comment

Florianopolis Brazil – the Vacation of a Lifetime!

If I could take a vacation anywhere in the world, it would be to Florianopolis Brazil. I’ve traveled to tropical places all over the world, and when considering all things, Florianopolis is my first choice for an exotic vacation destination.

Florianopolis (mostly a large island) is the city capitol of Santa Catarina state in south Brazil. It has rolling hills and mountains covered in lush green jungles & forest. Florianopolis is the safest city in Brazil and is mostly a large island that resides just off the coast but is connected to the continent by a bridge.

FLORIANOPOLIS BEACHES

Florianopolis Island has 42 beautiful beaches with some of the best surf in Brazil. It is also home to the most beautiful women in Brazil and some of the best nightlife in South America so you can see how the qualities of this amazing place are coming together, especially for young singles looking for an action-packed vacation.

The beaches in Florianopolis are simply amazing. Federal law prohibits the building of homes within 100 yards of the sand so 90% of the beaches are surrounded by jungle or lush vegetation, making nearly every beach downright beautiful. On just about every popular beach, you’ll find at least one restaurant on the sand that doubles as a bar. In high season (mid December through February) the beach bars will usually have DJs spinning all day. At about 2 pm, people will gather at the bars and the party will intensify with dancing and drinking until dark. Once the sun goes down, people head home and prepare for the nightlife.

FLORIANOPOLIS NIGHTLIFE

In Brazil, people don’t start going out until midnight, which works out great for Americans who are used to getting a much earlier start. This means it’s easy to beat the crowd in high season, where lines to enter a nightclub can be a 50-100 yards long after midnight. Unlike nightclubs in the USA (where the beautiful women walk right past the line), Brazil has so many beautiful women, they get no special treatment here and have to stand in line with everyone else. And since Florianopolis is mostly women, naturally the lines at the nightclubs are also mostly women. It’s really an odd (yet pleasant) sight for any tourist to see.

FLORIANOPOLIS VACATION

Ok, so the bottom line is this… If you’re looking for a combination of adventure activities, such as surfing, sunbathing, fishing, sight seeing, river rafting, paragliding, sand boarding, woman chasing, and some of the best nightlife in South America, then without a doubt, Florianopolis Brazil is a vacation destination you’ve got to check out. Here you’ll find all the best of Brazil rolled into a single, beautiful, subtropical island location.

Don Guy is a vacation homeowner in Florianopolis Brazil and co-founder of MrVacation.com, a website offering vacation rentals and vacation homes for sale around the world. Don lives in Florianopolis part time so he is very knowledgeable about the island and enjoys helping others plan their Florianopolis vacation.
