Best Ilha Grande Tours & Trips

Ilha Grande remains a car-free sanctuary where Atlantic rainforest meets crystal-clear waters. Once a notorious prison island, it now welcomes travelers to hike lush trails leading to Lopes Mendes, often hailed as Brazil's most stunning beach. Snorkelers dive into the transparent waves of Aventureiro Beach, spotting colorful fish beneath swaying palms. The main village, Abraão, buzzes with relaxed energy yet preserves a rustic charm through its narrow cobblestone streets. Whether kayaking through hidden coves or watching sunsets from Praia do Saco, visitors find an authentic escape untouched by mass tourism. This protected paradise offers a rare glimpse of nature thriving without urban intrusion.

9-Day Iguassu & Beyond Tour from Buenos Aires to Rio de Janeiro·Paraty, Ilha Grande | Max 17 Pax

A memorable and well-structured itinerary across two amazing countries. The combination of powerful natural scenery at Iguassu and the vibrant beach culture in Rio worked perfectly. I especially enjoyed strolling through Paraty in the evening when the streets were beautifully lit. The booking process was smooth and the trip felt great value for money.

18-Day Andes, Iguassu & Beyond Tour from Santiago·Valparaíso, Pucón, Buenos Aires, Foz do Iguaçu, Paraty

A fantastic route covering so many iconic destinations. Getting active in Pucón with optional outdoor activities added a fun adventurous element. The estancia experience in Argentina was a highlight and gave real insight into local ranch life. Buenos Aires brought amazing energy to the trip. Everything was well coordinated from start to finish.
