I will fly from ctba to Foz, and plan to visit both the brazilian and argentinian side. I currently live in Curitiba and prior to heading back home I want to visit the Foz and Buenos Aires. I am posting this question here because my itinerary covers quite a bit of terrain. I want to go on a tour that is mainly younger people if possible. The thing that has put me off Intrepid a bit is that you could end up being the only one on the tour, and that would be pretty awful to be honest. So I'm wondering is there any other tour companies I could use as a tour that starts around 15-18th September would be the best for me. However the dates of these tours are not ideal for me at all.įor GAP the tour dates available are 8th September and 28th September (as the 15th September, which would be ideal for me is booked out already!), and Intrepid tour dates are 11th September and 25th September. So ideally I'd like to leave mid september. I finish my finals exams on the 2nd September so dont want to start my travels immediately after that as I'll need time to pack, say my goodbyes etc. I'm planning on starting my travelling with a trip from Rio to Buenos Aires with a budget tour company, just to ease myself into travelling, as I'll be travelling solo.Ģ) Intrepid - Rio to Buenos Aires UnpluggedĢ) What other budget tour companies are there that do a similar trip? Though Americans are publicly bummed about Manaus, it's nothing like the battle that England coach Roy Hodgson is having with the city - he publicly called it the city to avoid and, upon hearing the news that England would playing Italy there, Manaus' mayor said he didn't particularly want England there - which doesn't bode well for a revival of colonialism or getting a pro-England crowd for that crucial match.I'm planning on travelling from September for a year or so and was hoping to begin my trip in Rio de Janeiro. (Think flying to Albuquerque as opposed to Denver.) It sounds like it's not going to happen - though fans going to Brazil might want to consider either making Recife their home base or moving a TAM Brazil Airpass up the priority list. were to use Recife for its home base for group play? It would certainly make travel more manageable - flying to Natal is akin to a JFK to Boston hop, and Manaus is only a little farther from Recife as compared to Sao Paulo. And there won't be as much jet lag only Manaus is in a different time zone than the other three cities.īut what if the U.S. The Sao Paulo to Natal journey is akin to flying to Dallas, the journey to Manaus is roughly equivalent to a flight to Denver, and Sao Paulo to Recife is like flying to New Orleans. team was basing itself out of New York and flying in and out of JFK. Unfortunately, it's a terrible home base when all your group matches are at least 1,300 miles to the north.īut is it really that bad from the American perspective? To use American distances as a rough comparison, imagine that the U.S. These distances assumes one key factor that's almost entirely settled - the Americans plan to stay and train in Sao Paulo, Brazil's largest city, the site of the tournament's opening match, and a home base location that gets more reasonable the deeper the U.S. didn't get an ideal draw by any means, but Group G isn't as bad as it looks.
