No group of people knows how to party better than the
Brazilians. Dancing competes with soccer as the national sport. It's
possible to combine all of these elements on the beach and the Brazilians
will happily show how that's done.
For visitors, Brazil offers more South American highlights
than any other on the continent.
Highlight: Sway on a hammock aboard a ship cruising
down the Amazon. Take a jungle stop in a remote village. Dance at
the Parantins festival, an Amazon River party that rivals Rio's Carnaval
for fun.
