The best time to go to Brazil
For those who enjoy sun and warmth, the best time to fly to Brazil is during the summer months of December to March. With average temperatures ranging from 25°C to 30°C, it's perfect for beachgoers. Be mindful that the Brazilian Carnival takes place in February or March, leading to bigger crowds in areas like Rio de Janeiro.
If you prefer fewer tourists but still want pleasant weather, plan your visit between April and May or October and November. These periods offer warm, sunny climates with less rainfall. It's the shoulder season, and you'll find better deals on flights and accommodation.
The cooler months from June to September are quieter. However, some hotels or resorts may close during this period.
The best time to book flights to Brazil
To grab the best flights to Brazil, aim to book approximately 45 to 60 days before you intend to fly.
