Brazil & Argentina (Rio de Janeiro, Ilha Grande, Paraty, São Paulo, Foz do Iguaçu, Puerto Iguazú, Buenos Aires)

1 itinerary · 0 open departures · 0 missions

Brazil and Argentina together form one of South America's most iconic travel routes, spanning vibrant megacities, lush Atlantic rainforest, and one of the world's greatest natural wonders. Rio de Janeiro draws visitors with its dramatic mountain-meets-sea scenery, beaches like Copacabana and Ipanema, and samba-fuelled culture, while the colonial coastal towns of Ilha Grande and Paraty offer a slower pace, pristine bays, and diving. Foz do Iguaçu and Puerto Iguazú sit on either side of the border and together provide access to Iguazú Falls — a vast horseshoe of nearly 300 waterfalls straddling Argentina and Brazil. São Paulo and Buenos Aires bookend the route with world-class food, nightlife, art, and architecture, making this corridor a favourite for travellers who want both natural adventure and urban depth.

Rio de Janeiro to Buenos Aires via Iguazu – Self-Launched Travel Pass

A self-launched version of Bamba Travel's 12-day Rio→Buenos Aires travel pass: the same route — Rio's beaches and rainforest, car-free Ilha Grande, colonial Paraty, big-city São Paulo, and Iguazu Falls from both sides — before finishing with tango and malbec in Buenos Aires. Where the operator bundles transport and selected excursions (but not accommodation), you'll book everything yourself: long-distance buses and flights, local boat trips, and GetYourGuide/direct-booked day tours. Budget guesthouses and hostels replace the tour's chosen hotels, and you keep full flexibility on dates. All costs are approximate per-person estimates in GBP.

Missions

Nobody's posted a Mission for Brazil & Argentina (Rio de Janeiro, Ilha Grande, Paraty, São Paulo, Foz do Iguaçu, Puerto Iguazú, Buenos Aires) yet — which, frankly, is an opportunity.

Wait, what's a Mission?It's not a scheduled trip with dates and a minimum group size like a Departure — it's a goal. Learn to dive, do a Muay Thai camp, live somewhere for a month and work on something, chase one very specific experience. Post it, and other people chasing the same thing find you.

Be the first to post one: "Find the most locally-hated tourist trap and go anyway, unironically, in a costume."
