Brazil holidays

Brazil is South America's biggest and most influential country and takes up almost half the continent. It is one of the world's economic giants and is revered for its football prowess, coffee production and distinctive music such as samba and bossa nova. Two-thirds of Brazil's population lives near the coast, meaning that life is a beach for locals and tourists alike. People are the essence of the country, and while Brazil is home to a multitude of ethnic groups of varying economic status, there are some characteristics that everyone shares - energy and passion. ACFEA Legato has been organising successful musical tours for years throughout this vast and welcoming country.
The view from the top of São Paulo's tallest building, the Edificio Italiano, reveals South America's largest city (over 10 million inhabitants) and Brazil's financial, commercial and industrial heartland. Famed throughout the continent for its abundant nightlife and shopping, it's also known as the cultural capital of Brazil.
Rio de Janeiro is an awe-inspiring city of contrasts. Impossibly steep granite mountains jut out of the ocean between glorious stretches of golden sand, impeccable colonial buildings nestle in between modern glass skyscrapers and verdant forests tumble down hillsides into densely populated residential areas. It is a city high on life, a city of beach worship, football, samba and Carnival. And high above all this fun and frivolity stands Rio's ever-present, iconic landmark - the statue of Christ the Redeemer.
