"All 6 of us were delighted with services of Craft Travel"

Written By Donald Meteny

“Our trip to Brazil was fabulous! We had a varied trip - all arranged by Craft Travel. Starting with Juma Lodge in the Amazon, short trips to Manaus and Brasilia, Carnival in both Salvador and charming Paraty and ending with the Winners Parade in the Sambadrome in Rio. Our guides were all superb and we learned a great deal from them. Hotels were all excellent- from modern to charming. One of our favorite experiences in Rio was a walking food tour through markets and restaurants, eating local foods we had not known. All 6 of us were delighted with services of Craft Travel.”
