Brazil cruises turn up the volume on everything you want from a holiday: sunshine, scenery, music, food, and a serious sense of fun. From Rio’s legendary coastline to lush landscapes and colourful local culture, this is a destination that makes a lasting impression long after you’ve sailed away.

Rio de Janeiro is the headline act for many Brazil cruise itineraries. See Sugarloaf Mountain and Christ the Redeemer, take in the famous beaches of Copacabana and Ipanema or simply soak up the city’s infectious energy. Other itineraries can take you further along Brazil’s coastline towards Salvador or São Paulo, revealing a very different side of this vast country.

Brazil cruises are ideal for adventurous travellers, couples, and anyone looking for something beyond the usual European cruise. Combine Brazil with other South American destinations for a bigger journey or choose a fly cruise to make the most of your time in this spectacular part of the world. If you like your holidays with a little sizzle, start here.
