Brazil

Where every day is all about electrifying fun

Rio De Janiero, Brazil

Feel the beat of Brazil

Brazil is pure energy... from its golden beaches to its lush rainforests and electrifying cities, this country is all about having a good time.

Feel the rhythm of Rio as you watch the sunset over Copacabana Beach or stand in awe at the 30-metre high Christ the Redeemer statue that dominates the skyline.

Venture deep into the Amazon to immerse yourself in ancient flora that’s remained unchanged for millions of years; experience the pulse of Bahia, where Afro-Brazilian culture and dazzling carnivals bring the streets alive - and indulge in sizzling churrasco, tropical açai bowls, light airy cheese bread and refreshing caipirinhas till you can eat and drink no more.

Whether you’re dancing the night away, exploring breathtaking landscapes, or soaking up the local vibe, Brazil is a feast for all your senses, all at once.

Chat with our Brazil travel specialists, and let’s bring your South American dream to life.

Flight time

The flight from Auckland to Brazil takes roughly 16.5 hours with a stopover, but the energy of this country will wake you up as soon as you land.

Best time to go

October and November offer Brazil’s best weather without the crowds. If you're after sun, sand, and Carnival energy, plan your trip between December and March, but expect the masses!

Time difference

Brazil is between 14 and 16 hours behind New Zealand, depending on Daylight Saving, but if you make like the locals and hit the ground partying, it won't be so bad.

I’ve been fortunate to travel extensively and live in some amazing cities.

I'd love to inspire you to travel more by drawing on my personal experiences & knowledge to make your dreams a reality

As a travel agent with 30+ (gulp)  years of experience, I’ve learned that no two journeys are ever the same—and that’s what keeps this job exciting.

While travel is one of life’s greatest pleasures, planning it can sometimes feel overwhelming. That’s where I come in. I’ll take care of every detail so you can focus on what matters most: making unforgettable memories.

What truly sets me apart is that I believe in creating travel experiences as unique as you are. I take the time to understand your preferences, your dreams, and even those little quirks that make your ideal trip special. 

It’s not just about booking flights and hotels; it’s finding that hidden gem of a restaurant in Barcelona or securing the best view of the Pyramids in Egypt, I’m committed to delivering experiences that go beyond the ordinary. 

I also pride myself on being incredibly accessible and responsive. If a last-minute change or unexpected challenge arises, I’m just a phone call or message away, ready to jump in and ensure everything goes smoothly. 

My goal is to make every moment of your trip memorable, stress-free, and tailored just for you.

Hi all - please note that I am on maternity leave until September 2026  :)

Customer service has always been drilled into me. After begging my way into a cafe job at 14, I then spent 12 years working in the hospitality industry supervising restaurants and managing specialty cafes which also founded my love for all different types of foods.

After spending 3 years in Melbourne, 6 months in South East Asia and a few years in the UK I finally made the switch to the travel industry where I have been able to share my love for travel and customer service ever since.

I made it through the dark years of COVID in the industry which has led me to know to dig that little bit deeper into my clients' travel plans to create that perfect trip, and ensure we really have the best option for you in terms of comfort, reliability, and service. As we just don't know what is round the corner, do we!

I've travelled extensively across Southeast Asia, UK and Europe, spent a lot of time exploring properties in Fiji (and relaxing by the beach), road tripped in California and in 2024 I visited South Africa in Feb, Japan, South Korea and Taipei! I've got many more places on my bucket list to visit, but if I haven't been, I've got a superb team of people behind me who have and we'll work out the best trip for you! My ultimate passion when I travel is trying local foods, and finding the best possible places to have that authentic experience that we wouldn't be able to have at home. So if that resonates with you, I'd love to hear from you and let's put together your foodie adventure, together :)

Having been in the travel industry for 14 years, it's safe to say travel is my biggest passion. I love turning up somewhere not knowing what to expect and being delighted by both the differences in culture, cuisine and customs.

Part way through my career I took a year off and spent this travelling extensively through central America, Asia and Europe. I'm now fortunate enough to be able to pass on the knowledge I've gained over the years and work with my clients to bring their travel dreams to fruition.
