Experience the Green Coast Magic

Explore iconic Rio de Janeiro, hike through Tijuca National Park, discover the colonial charm of Paraty, and relax on the pristine beaches of Ilha Grande and Ubatuba.

The Green Coast of Brazil, or Costa Verde, stretches along the southeastern coast of the country, and offers an amazing array of attractions and activities that will leave you awe-inspired.

At the heart of the Costa Verde lies Rio de Janeiro, renowned for its stunning photo opportunities and lively atmosphere. Begin your journey here, where the iconic Sugarloaf Mountain and Corcovado with the towering Christ the Redeemer statue provide panoramic views of the city and its emerald coastline. Explore the vibrant neighbourhoods of Copacabana and Ipanema, famous for their golden sandy beaches and vibrant nightlife. Immerse yourself in the rhythmic samba beats and join in the infectious energy of Carnival, an extravaganza of music, dance, and colourful costumes.

Beyond Rio de Janeiro, you'll discover a wealth of natural wonders. Home to the Tijuca National Park, one of the world's largest urban forests, where lush vegetation, cascading waterfalls, and diverse wildlife await. Hike through the forest trails to reach the summit of Pedra da Gávea, a towering rock formation offering panoramic views of the city and the Atlantic Ocean.

Further south, check out the UNESCO World Heritage Site that is Paraty, a city featuring a delightful blend of Portuguese and Brazilian cultures, with well-preserved buildings and exciting cultural events. Explore the nearby islands and pristine beaches on a boat tour or delve into the history of the region by visiting the historic houses and churches that line the streets.

For nature enthusiasts, Ilha Grande is a must-visit destination. This car-free island paradise boasts lush rainforests, crystal-clear waters, and secluded beaches. Embark on hiking trails that lead to hidden waterfalls and enjoy snorkelling or scuba diving in the marine-rich waters surrounding the island. Relax on the untouched beaches, such as Lopes Mendes, often ranked among the most beautiful beaches in Brazil.

To complete your journey along the Green Coast, make a stop in Ubatuba, a coastal town famous for its countless stunning beaches and rich biodiversity. With over 100 beaches to choose from, you can indulge in sunbathing, surfing, or simply strolling along the pristine shores. Explore the Serra do Mar State Park, a vast area of protected rainforest where you can hike through lush trails, discover hidden waterfalls, and spot rare species of flora and fauna.

I have just returned from the most amazing trip to Tanzania, booked with Far & Wild. Everything went so smoothly from the first time I spoke with them. The planning was great, the itinerary was perfect for us, and the lodges were amazing. We spent 10 nights with an amazing guide, travelling through Northern Tanzania and even got to see the migration, which was a lifetime ambition of mine. This wasn't our first safari, so we were nervous as to how it would compare, but it was spot on. I will certainly be using them again to book our next trip....we're thinking of a relaxing beach stay next time to get over the excitement of safari!

Just back from another amazing F&W organised trip to Namibia with the family (8 adults). Having been there before, Alistair tailored our trip to include our favourite locations and added a new one for us, which we loved.The quality of accommodation and guiding, activities, food and drinks was exceptional throughout. It was good value for the level of luxury we had.

We had a wonderful trip to São Tomé and Príncipe - a small island nation in the Gulf of Guinea with paradise (almost empty) beaches and jungle forest. It was all well organised by Far and Wild and we stayed at a great combination of different types of resorts/hotels. We really recommend this for those who want to experience a pristine destination with few other tourists and friendly and welcoming people. The islands also feel very safe. At Principe, there are no dangerous animals, snakes or whatever, and it was great to be able to hike in the jungle without being very conscious of where to put your hands and feet. Go before everyone else does!

Back home again, basking in the joys of a superb safari. Every aspect you arranged for us, including linking up with Mack Air and Wild Horizons locally to transport us. The choice of camps was ideally situated, comfortable, in good surroundings, and with excellent wildlife on the doorstep and throughout the wider country. The service staff in each looked after us very well, catering was excellent, and the game guides were professional, knowledgeable and helpful. You made us happy, and we recommend you to similar safari enthusiasts with confidence.

Far and Wild went above and beyond to make sure my trip to Zambia was special. I would definitely recommend them and their services to anyone wanting to travel to Africa.

Lovely holiday at the amazing Almanara on Galu beach, a beach like no other. Far and Wild excelled themselves from beginning to end of our holiday in beautiful Kenya.... What a country!,

Wow! These guys are amazing. Can’t recommend them highly enough. Friendly AND efficient! Sorted out our trip (last minute and lots of different family member needs, sorry!) in record time and everything worked like clockwork. Trip of a lifetime to the Masai Mara. Will be back (and use F&W again!)!
