YourWorld Consultant Group individually designs each of its tours for those groups, families and individuals, who desire a unique travel experience. Salvador, the Capital of Bahia, and one of the most fascinating destinations in all of South America, offers a rich and diversified African-centered experience. It has become one of YourWorld's primary markets. Although African Heritage is the centerpiece of our programs in Brazil, we have other traditional tourist sites in our travel itineraries. We can take you to Iguaçu Falls in the south of Brazil. How about a Cruise on the Amazon or a ride along the Marriage of the Rivers in Manaus? What would a trip to Brazil be without a visit to the Corcovado (Christ Statue) and Sugarloaf Mountain in Rio de Janeiro?

If you are contemplating taking a trip to Brazil contact us today, and together, let us help make your visit a memorable one.
