Expedition Brasilien: Vom Amazonasdelta zu den Ufern von Bahia - Swan Hellenic

Tag-für-Tag-Reiseroute

The Amazon sets the tone early: the Breves Narrows and stilted, car-free Afuá before the Equator crossing and open ocean. Then the coast unfolds day by day — two nights at São Luís with access to the dunes and lagoons of Lençóis Maranhenses, a lively afternoon in Fortaleza, and the beach-fringed port of João Pessoa. The final arrival into Salvador is the crescendo: cobblestoned Pelourinho, the beat of capoeira in the squares, and centuries of Afro-Brazilian culture at every turn

Überblick

Tag 1

Tag 1. Belém

Day image 1

Once one of South America's most prosperous cities, known as ‘tropical Paris’, today Belém remains a thriving port and is the gateway to the Amazon. The opulence of Belém’s golden era is showcased at the neoclassical-style 1874 Theatro da Paz on the Praça de República. Pretty green spaces are shaded by mango trees and the historical centre has plenty of wonderful museums. The bustling Ver-o-Peso market is Latin America's largest open-air market

Tag 2. Fahrt durch die Breves-Engstelle

Day image 1

Navigating Brazil's Breves Narrows, upriver from Belem in the Thousand Islands region, is a mesmerising Amazonian journey. This natural passage, surrounded by towering walls of lush vegetation, creates a secluded green canyon in the heart of the jungle. Enigmatic wildlife such as scarlet macaws, and equatorial flora such as giant Victoria water lilies flourish. The welcoming locals, known as ribeirinhos, offer warm hospitality

Nestled within the world's largest rainforest, Afuá in Pará state, known as "Marajó's Venice" or the "Amsterdam of the Tropics," rests on fluvial Marajó Island near the Amazon's mouth. Built primarily on wooden stilts 1.5m above the waterways with boardwalks, this car-free city aims to become a net-zero emissions model.

The port city of Cabedelo's strategic location at the mouth of the Paraíba River has shaped its history as a defensive stronghold. Originally inhabited by Tapuia Indians who migrated inland when Tupi people arrived from the Amazon, the area later became a Portuguese fortress. During Dutch rule, Cabedelo was temporarily renamed Margaretha. Its natural beauty makes it an attractive destination for beach-goers with ten nearby beaches
