Brazil - An Unforgettable Adventure
This past September we had the pleasure of leading a small group of very enthusiastic top sales performers to South America on an amazing Brazilian Adventure. Our first stop was the very powerful and breathtaking Iguazu Falls.
After an overnight flight our plane touched down at the tiny Iguazu Falls International Airport and we transferred to the 5-star Hotel das Cataratas. This Orient Express property, built back in the 1920's, is the only resort situated inside the boundary of Iguazu Falls National Park.
The ambiance and history of this magical place enchanted our guests from the moment they arrived as they were able to feel the rumble of the falls and check-in to their spacious rooms. As a group, we enjoyed a delightful welcome dinner the day of our arrival and some much needed down time. Our first full day was spent enjoying the thunderous falls both by trail and boat. The famous Macuco Boat Safari was an adventure we will never forget. Picture yourself on a high powered zodiac racing along the Iguazu River to the base of the falls as your boat gets completely enveloped in the crashing mist!
Following our visit to Iguazu we made our way to the most iconic South American city, Rio de Janeiro. We visited the Christ the Redeemer statue, Sugarloaf, Ipanema and Copacabana beaches along with many other incredible sites. We were immersed in Brazilian culture and customs and our group fell in love with the food, rhythm, music, scenery and people of this amazing city. Brazil has so much to offer and this event will go down in memory as one of our best!
