Hello, I’d like to take a trip for my 70th birthday this winter, but I’m looking for itineraries with a few days (1 or 2) at each stop to rest. I’ve recently had a stroke and, unfortunately, can’t travel the way I used to. So, I’m looking for itineraries that aren’t too demanding but still let me and my husband explore something new. We’ve traveled quite a bit before and would love to do one last trip (South America…). Thanks for your help!

Hello,
we’re planning a three-week trip to Brazil.
What sights and accommodations would you recommend, given we’re a couple with mom in a wheelchair and two older teens, and we’d like to visit:
-Iguazu Falls
-Rio de Janeiro (Sugarloaf Mountain, Christ the Redeemer, old town... and a beach)
-Salvador de Bahia
-if possible, another city further north like Recife or Natal
We’ll arrive in São Paulo, where we’ll visit the young Brazilian woman we had the chance to host during her high school year in France.
It’s hard to gauge hotel accessibility from France (bathroom photos aren’t very telling and worry us...) Another concern: domestic flights in Brazil.
Thank you so much for your tips and advice! :-)
Best regards,
