Brazil
Large rainforest in South America. It lies in the Amazon basin, easiest to visit in the drier months from June to November.
Why visit: The largest rainforest on earth, reached by river — pink dolphins, canopy walkways and nights of extraordinary noise.

- ›Take the dawn and night boat trips — that is when the wildlife is out
- ›Bring long sleeves, repellent and a dry bag
