Overview
Brazil is too big for a single trip, and that argues for clear decisions. Anyone who wants to combine a lifelong wish with beach, music and city life travels between May and October, when the days are drier and less humid. Rio de Janeiro delivers the famous picture: Sugarloaf, Christ statue, Copacabana. Anyone who starts early stands at the top of the Corcovado before the clouds come.
Salvador in Bahia has Afro-Brazilian culture, colonial architecture in the Pelourinho and music you hear on the street. Florianópolis is the island in the south, with many beaches and a calmer rhythm. At markets and in small places cash in reais counts, credit cards are accepted mainly in hotels and larger restaurants. Better avoid tap water.
Because the cities lie far apart, you need domestic flights, and the time for them belongs in the plan. A once-in-a-lifetime trip succeeds here with two, at most three stops. Which ones those are, you discuss in the video call on the basis of what the occasion means to you.
