Special moments, unforgettable experiences

" Hello,
My wife and I have just finished a 3 night cruise on the Rio Negro on a private boat.
We are very happy with the experience, here is our feedback:
Organization:
– I had very good communication with Pierre at Brazil Selection. He was able to respond quickly to any questions we had. Pre/post cruise communication was good too. All the services were punctual.
Guide:
– Deuzimar, our guide, is very competent and we felt safe with him. He knows everyone and interacts with the locals. His French is good and he likes a joke. He takes pleasure in explaining details, we in listening to them.
Cruise schedule
– The schedule was respected and we were always able to chat with the guide to do what interested us the most. The program was busy but a few well-placed nap breaks allowed us to keep up.
Boat / crew
– The private boat is really a pleasant luxury. A bedroom with toilet / shower and a second floor to enjoy the scenery. Each member of the crew is smiling and always there to lend a hand. The Marie cuisine was a treat and the choice of food very varied. We shared fantastic moments at meal times. The skipper is an ace at the helm of the small boat!

Conclusion
10/10

We are really happy with our experience. Lifetime memories, unforgettable encounters and lots of laughter. We felt welcomed by people happy to show us their country and a sense of tourism respectful of the locals.

Bravo

" Superb trip to the Amazon and the Northeast, October 2019.
Only very good memories … Perfect organization, thanks to Pierre, he was present at all stages of the trip, from preparation to on-site support, very responsive and always available!
For the first time in Brazil, it is a success and I will highly recommend Brazil Selection to my friends and acquaintances.
My 14 year old son loved it, why not another part of Brazil in 2020 …
Another big thank you.

Thanks to Brazil Selection for organizing our vacation in Brazil.
The staff were attentive to our requests, available not only during the planning, but also during the trip. Always available in case of questions or concerns (which were always well managed).
We are very demanding customers and the agency knew how to make the right choices, among others, for hotels, planning and the various places to go.
I highly recommend Brazil Selection. A very serious agency.

" We return amazed, enchanted and delighted by what Brazil Selection had concocted for us during 3 dream weeks. Perfect timing, high quality hotels – we were able in a relatively short period of time (compared to the enormity of this country) to see unique sites and to feast on new flavors. We had very nice encounters (learning Portuguese is a bonus). This agency is at your service, always present on Whatsapp, they give you great advice for restaurants and other things to do during your free time. We loved it so much that we hope to return to see other sites in this vast country. Pierre was our contact but Fernando and Frédéric were also very present and we would like to thank them warmly too. This team knows how to please you. There is a price to pay but the return was beyond our expectations as it was great. A big thank-you. Christel, Christine and the Trotty our Mascot !!! "

" Exceptional stay at all levels, from the construction of the itinerary, to the choice of hotels, tours and means of transport. Our correspondent was very responsive from my first request for information on the Brazil Selection site. Very quickly he offered us a program with options corresponding to our criteria and above all the spirit of the vacation we wanted. This trip was a gift for my daughter´s 18th birthday – her joy was beyond measure. Brazil Selection made sure that everything went as we wished at each destination, which is rare and precious. We discovered a little corner of paradise, thank you for helping to create this beautiful memory. "

" The Organization was perfect in terms of timing, no delays in the different transfers.
The guides and drivers are very attentive … unfortunately not all of them speak English, some only speak Portuguese.
A special mention to Bruno, our first guide: both friendly and very professional.
The Hotels and Pousadas generally met our expectations.
THANK YOU to the whole BRAZIL-SELECTION team for this exceptional moment spent in NORDESTE + FERNANDO de NORONHA.

Les Hôtels ou Pousadas étaient conformes à nos attentes d’une manière générale.
MERCI à toute l’Equipe de BRAZIL-SELECTION pour cet exceptionnel moment passé dans le NORDESTE + FERNANDO de NORONHA

We wanted to express here our enthusiasm for having entrusted you with the organization of our honeymoon trip.
You were able to concoct our ideal trip (Rio carnival, beautiful beaches & idleness in Morro then authenticity in Salvador) while respecting our budget.

We very much appreciated your listening, your advice and your availability during the preparation of the trip.

On the spot, we only had to let ourselves be carried away by the discovery of this beautiful country, of the beautiful Pushadas / hotels and surprises!

thank you so much

We have just returned from Brazil where we spent two wonderful weeks. Everything was perfect, the organization, the guides, the drivers were all great. Despite the poverty of this country we have not felt it so much that people are smiling and kind.
We can only recommend this agency which is very considerate, attentive and which takes care to organize the trip according to your desires.
Many thanks and we hope to see you again soon

Thank you very much for having listened to my request and for building an ideal trip to the northeast of Brazil! Congratulations on the choice of hotels! Thank you to the guides and drivers who all showed professionalism, punctuality and gave us a great welcome, trying to surprise us on the excursions! Eye-catching scenery, fabulous landscapes and a warm welcome everywhere. I highly recommend this agency! Thank you again for the courtesy lobster meal in Parnaiba !!

Hello I want to testify to the excellence of the organization of this trip from Fortaleza to Sao Luis that you organized for us. Among the points that we particularly appreciated, I would cite: The quality of the accommodation and the food when there was a restaurant, the quality of the drivers – all experienced and careful and of course the choice of the various wonderful sites which we visited. My wife and I were really delighted with this trip organized by Brazil Selection and we will not fail to recommend it to our family and friends. "
Jacques S.
" Here we have resumed our activities in Lyon, in summary we are very happy with Brazil Selection, we loved our trip and the organization, the service providers were very considerate and attentive to the customer.
Perhaps the worst was the Hotel Encantes do Nordeste, where we had to carry all our suitcases ourselves from the river to the hotel itself, which is quite a distance. Otherwise everything else was fine.

" Hello Pierre,
We came home …. We miss the Brazilian sun already !!
We had a very pleasant stay in your beautiful region.
The organization was without problems and everything went very well.
Thanks for the cocktail at Jéricoacoara!
Bruno was a perfect driver and even guide throughout our stay.
He is a very nice and endearing person that the whole family particularly appreciated.
It was a real pleasure.
We will return with pleasure to discover the rest of the coast or perhaps further south!

" A quick note to tell you how much we enjoyed our stay in Prea. ¨The hotel, the kite, the transfer, everything was perfect … until TAP took charge following the cancellation of the evening flight to Lisbon. The 36 hours that the return lasted did not reduce our desire to call on your services again to quickly find the light of your beautiful country.
With our thanks and cordial greetings. "

" Hello Fernando and Frédéric,

Just back from our Brazilian trip where everything went very well overall!

The most “amazing” point was the synchronization with all the “stakeholders”: buggy, 4X4, boat, canoe, guides, drivers …
Incredibly punctual and efficient!

A little long to explain everything by email I will give you a call Frederic since you wanted to have a return on points of details.

Thank you and see you soon! "

" This little email is to tell you how much we enjoyed our trip to Brazil!
The country seduced us even if in the Nordeste NO ONE speaks anything other than Brazilian Portuguese. Otherwise magnificent beaches in Olinda – we were at the 7 Colinas hotel and we do not regret it.
At Morro de São Paulo, we chose a boutique hotel (Orixas) on the 5th beach which I also recommend for clients who like ‘natural’ luxury and isolation.
I wanted to share this with you and above all thank you for the perfect organization, a high-quality reception with a punctual and courteous guide. "

The BGK is very beautiful, the beach is magnificent, the village is nice …

We want to come back.
