Expat Explore comes through once again!
4th Tour, 4th Amazing Adventure! I've been to Egypt, South Africa, Great Britain, and the latest was Brazil/Iguazu. Expat caters to the exact type of traveler that I am. I want to see as much of the world as I'm able to and experience the local culture at a reasonable price. I'm not looking for luxurious hotels. That's not where I want to spend my time. I just want hotels that are clean, comfortable, in convenient locations, and safe; and that's what they deliver. Their tour guides are also very knowledgeable and personable! They really help to make the tour enjoyable.
This trip started in Rio de Janiero then went to Paraty and Sao Paulo. From there we flew to Foz do Iguacu. A lot of sightseeing and some great dinners were included, plus there were optional tours. I went on most of them. Some of them seemed a bit expensive at first glance, but I think they were worth every dollar that I spent. It's also nice to not have to worry about making the arrangements or to wonder
