Experience Brazil through those who call it home
Rio de Janeiro and Ilha Grande, told by the people who live there every day.
Experience Brazil with those who call it home
Brazil is one of those places that isn’t simply visited—it’s experienced. It’s the scent of the ocean, the rhythm of music that accompanies each day, the sunset viewed from a secluded beach, and the smiles of the people you meet along the way.
It is from this very philosophy that the collaboration between Next Stop Ilha Grande and WeRoad was born.
For the WeRoad trip to Brazil, all experiences in Rio de Janeiro and Ilha Grande are curated by the local experts at Next Stop Ilha Grande. …is organized and managed by our team. Behind every activity, every excursion, and every logistical detail is our deep knowledge of the region and our love for this part of Brazil that we have chosen to call home.
Our Story
Next Stop Ilha Grande was born from the meeting of Lucia, an Italian traveler who fell in love with Brazil, and Jorge, who was born and raised on the island.
Together, we built a project with a simple goal: to showcase the most authentic side of Brazil—far from the usual tourist routes and closer to its people, traditions, and nature.
Collaborating with WeRoad means sharing the same vision of travel: not just visiting the most famous places, but creating experiences that stay with you forever.
On Ilha Grande, we’ll guide the group through one of the most spectacular corners of Brazil. A car-free island where time seems to slow down and nature still takes center stage. From boat excursions and beaches accessible only by sea to hikes through the Atlantic rainforest, breathtaking sunsets, and hidden gems, you’ll experience the island the way the locals do.
Our in-depth knowledge of the region allows us to carefully curate activities with trusted local partners, selecting routes and experiences that truly capture the soul of Ilha Grande.
The journey then continues to Rio de Janeiro, one of the world’s most extraordinary cities, where nature and urban life exist in perfect harmony. Rio is much more than Christ the Redeemer or Copacabana—it’s the sunset at Arpoador, its historic neighborhoods, live music, Carioca culture, surfing, exceptional cuisine, and the incredible energy that makes this city truly unforgettable.
Thanks to our local expertise, the group will experience Rio in an authentic way, discovering not only its iconic landmarks but also lesser-known places that reveal the city’s true spirit, such as the favelas of the South Zone and the famous mountain known as Morro Dois Irmãos.
For us, every journey is much more than an itinerary. It is a collection of encounters, emotions, and unforgettable moments that transform a vacation into a memory you’ll cherish forever.
We are proud to be the official local partner of WeRoad for this Brazilian adventure, bringing our expertise and passion to every traveler who chooses this journey.
If you’re dreaming of discovering Brazil alongside a group of new friends, guided by people who truly know these places and live them every day, this is the perfect journey for you.
At Next Stop Ilha Grande, we’re ready to welcome you and show you the Brazil we love.
