Best time to Visit:
Brazil is a huge country with a diverse climate. While most part of the country remains positively sunny round the year, winter in the southern part of Brazil is the coldest. Winters last from June to September in this part of the country, where the temperature doesn’t drop below 60° Fahrenheit (15° Celsius). Visiting Amazon during the dry season, which runs from July to October, is ideal for witnessing wildlife. Traveling during New year's eve and in February (Carnival celebrations) can be inconvenient for budget travelers, as it is one of the busiest times for tourism in the country.
