Recommendation
If time is of the essence, I would recommend the air travel option to Rio de Janeiro, as it is the quickest way to reach your destination. Alternatively, if you prefer a road trip and wish to explore along the way, the journey via road can be an adventurous route, although it requires significant travel time.
