Peru y Brasil 2010 Agosto - 北美

Hi,
We are a group of guys with age ranging from 28-33 who are based in Taiwan,
Hong-Kong, and the Bay Area, CA.

Because there were people backing out, we are now looking for 2-3 more
people interested in traveling to Peru/Brazil this coming summer.
Knowing some Spanish/Portuguese would be a plus.

Time: Aug 3rd to Aug 28th
Group size: 4-6
Visa requirements (if taiwanese passport holder):
*Peru- exempted
*Brazil- required
Coarse itinerary:

We'll be flying from Miami to Lima on 8/3, spend 12 days in Peru,
then fly from Lima to Sao Paulo on 8/15, and stay in Brazil until 8/28.
Places that are surely to be included in the itinerary are as followed,
*Peru: Lima, Cuzco, Machu-Picchu, Areguipa, Nazca
*Brazil: Sao Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Morro de Sao Paulo, Salvador, Recife
However, everything is still open for discussion at this stage. So all
suggestions and comments are welcome. Besides, you can leave any time you
want if you do not intend to stay that long in SA.

Cost:

~USD$3500 (if flying from Taiwan) - flights+accommodations+meals+Inca Trail

The open-jaw round trip tickets of Miami-Lima-Sao Paulo-Miami(or New York)
ranges from USD$625-900 on Orbitz and Priceline right now. If flying from
Taiwan to Miami, an additional USD$1500-1600 will be added. So in sum, the
transportation cost by flights will be around USD$2500 at max (if you buy
them asap) in a total.

According to the guidebook of Lonely Planet, bugdets per day are,
*Peru: USD$15-25/day
*Brazil: USD$35-45/day
Since we will be traveling on budget (like staying in cheap hostels,
eating in local market places, etc), I'll just take the lower one
(Peru: USD$15/day, Brazil: USD$35/day) as our estimates. As a result,
the local cost will be around USD$600 in sum.


The Inca Trail/Machu-Picchu classic 4d trek costs about USD$450/person.

Please contact me directy by email if interested: [email protected]
We have a facebook group for discussion too. I'll let you know about the
details after contacting me.
