FAQ

Via Saudade was born from a simple idea — that travel can be both effortless and soulful.

We combine the structure and safety of European standards with the beauty, warmth, and authenticity of Brazil.

Each journey is crafted for small groups, guided by locals, and designed to help you belong, not just visit.

Our trips blend nature, culture, and human connection — so you return home not only with memories, but with stories and friendships that stay.

Our travelers come from across Europe — curious, open-minded people who love connection, culture, and comfort.

Many join solo, others with a partner or friend, but all share one wish: to experience Brazil deeply, beyond the surface.

Our groups are intimate — usually 8 to 12 travelers — creating an atmosphere that feels personal, safe, and authentic.

Saudade is a Portuguese word with no direct translation.

It describes a deep emotional longing — the kind of warmth and nostalgia that lingers after something beautiful ends.

That’s what we aim to create: journeys that stay with you, even after you return home.
