Gay Travel To Diverse Brazil

When it comes to gay travel, few people think of Latin America as an alternative.  Europe or Canada might spring to mind first.  But even in cultures know for machismo, there are rubies to be found for the gay traveler.

Brazil is a country of much contrast; it is the largest country in South America, and shares borders with every other country on this continent except Ecuador and Chile. A gay holiday in Brazil is as popular as straight travel to Brazil and many travel partners are available online to assist you with travel arrangements or tours.

Just the name “Brazil” conjures up images of Carnival, the Amazon, Rio, Sugar Loaf Mountain, beaches, the planned city of Brasilia, Corcovado (the Statue of Christ), and a visit to Brazil is not complete without seeing the natural beauty of Iguazu Falls.

There is so much on offer for the gay traveler or any other type of traveler. The people of this country are fantastic and the tourism infrastructure is second to none. Although the bright lights of the big city and close location of slums is a draw card for crime, traveling, particularly with a tour group is quite safe. Carnival time is fantastic, but travel is much more expensive at that time and it is the hottest time of the year.

If you have the opportunity to travel to this wonderful country, the best time to go is for carnival, if you are looking for a spectacular time. Two things you have to consider however is, when Carnival takes place it is the hottest time of the year in Brazil and it is also the most expensive.

Wherever you decide to vacation in Brazil will be brilliant, Recife, Natal, Bahia, the Amazon, Parana, Santa Catarina. Every state in this great county has something special to offer. I personally don’t like San Paulo, and to my mind Brasilia is only for visitors who are avidly interested in architecture. Towns such as Parati are fantastic, and if you book at the Pousada de Ouro, you will find that a great many celebrities have spent vacation time there.

A bus trip to the famous town of Parati, is a real adventure, getting there is part of the fun, and this is the case with many of the best spots in Brazil. And if you are visiting the south, head for Santa Caterina and Praia do Pinho, this beach is the first official nudist beach.
