Brazil was country 30 for my 30 by 30 goal! The afrotrip team planned an amazing 30th birthday trip for our group in Rio de Janeiro and Salvador where I deeply connected with the Afro-Brazilian people, food, and culture. Every detail of the trip from transportation to food to experiences was expertly executed even when I had a delayed flight. The team was flexible and gave me one of the best birthday experiences of my life. Forever grateful to Carina, Dandara, and all the team members/partners (who were also Black-owned) for becoming real friends and truly making Brazil feel like home. If you planning to come to Brazil you absolutely need to book with them especially if you are of African-descent.

Thank you tor AfroTrip Brazil and the entire team for providing my clients and myself with such a seamless travel experience in Brazil. Our guide Anna Maria was amazing! She was energetic, kind, well-informed and so genuine. She gave us the exact local feel that we were seeking and such a great sense of humor. The insights she gave us into Afro-Brazilian culture exceeded what I imagined and I'm so grateful for the connection we made to the ancestors and their stories. I am looking forward to visiting Brazil again and I will no doubt contact you guys again.

I just finished my AMAZING solo trip with AfroTrip to Rio de Janeiro and Salvador da Bahia. Carina and her team make you feel so welcome and cared for your entire stay. They were also quick to make changes to my schedule due to the weather or my own energy levels. From the moment you reach out to AfroTrip to inquire about your tour, they are responsive, thoughtful and ready to make the experience perfect for you. I had so much fun learning about Afro-Brazilian culture, food, music and history, I can’t wait to come back to Brazil!!

I connected with Afrotrip the first time I came to Brasil and knew when I returned I would NEED to book a trip. The time we spent with Carina, her partner and Junior was more than just booking an experience with a tourist company. The intentions put into our time and the love shared made this one we will not ever forget. Deepest thanks to yall and we look forward to our next adventure together!

I thoroughly enjoyed my experience with AfroTrip! This was my first time traveling to Brazil, and it was a pilgrimage experience for me. From weeks before my trip began the founder checked in on me personally and helped me curate my itinerary. She connected me with knowledgable guides in Sao Paolo, Salvador, and Rio, and she checked in often to make sure everything was running smoothly. I loved the passion and attention to detail that the guides had in all 3 cities, and my Black Immersion experience in Salvador was one of the highlights of the trip, as was the Carnaval Experience in Rio. I highly recommend AfroTrip for your next trip to Brazil, and I'm excited to come back soon!
