Our Story
Born in a Salem, NH coffee shop, 2023. Two expats (one Texan, one Carioca) frustrated with cookie-cutter Brazil tours. We wanted jaguar boats at dawn, not gift-shop stops. So we built a U.S. company that speaks your language and knows Brazil’s backroads. 50+ trips later, still obsessed.
Ana Costa – Rio native, ex-samba school muse
Plans every itinerary like it’s her family reunion. Knows which bloco starts at 6 am and ends with the best pastel in town.
Jake Miller – NH operations, ex-Wall Street
Handles your dollars, insurance, and 2 am “what if” emails. Makes sure the helicopter is fueled before you land.
12 Local Crew – fishermen in Atins, cowboys in Pantanal, capoeira masters in Salvador. They don’t just guide, they invite you home.
1,200+ happy travelers since launch
Zero lost passports (knock on teak)
4.9/5 average review (real ones, not bots)
10 tours, 120 departure dates, all small-group
No hidden fees. No “optional” extras. Cancel up to 60 days, full refund. If the jaguar doesn’t show, we buy the caipirinhas.
Brazil isn’t our product. It’s our home. Let’s share it.
