Whether you're headed to these popular spots or exploring beyond, here are essential tips to keep in mind for a safe and enjoyable trip.
Dos:
1. Learn Basic Portuguese:
While Spanish may help in other South American countries, Brazilian Portuguese is key here. Familiarize yourself with basic phrases. English is common in big cities, but less so in rural areas.
2. Stay in Well-Lit Areas:
Avoid dark, isolated places, especially if you're alone.
3. Travel Light:
Limit what you carry to avoid attracting petty theft.
4. Plan Ahead:
Know your itinerary before leaving the U.S. and once at your hotel. A map can be invaluable. Keep your bearings to travel safely.
5. Pack Smart:
Bring long pants, long-sleeved shirts, and hats to protect against mosquitoes. Use insect repellent and, if staying overnight outdoors, bring nets and sprays.
6. Use Taxis Over Buses:
Keep valuables hidden in money pouches. If driving, lock your car doors.
7. Respect Locals:
Demonstrating respect can enhance your experience.
8. Report Crimes:
Always report any crime immediately.
9. Follow Local Rules:
Adhering to local regulations helps avoid trouble.
Don'ts:
1. Avoid Flashing Valuables:
Keep jewelry and valuables in a safe, such as a hotel deposit box.
2. Minimize Cash and Cards:
Carry only what you need for the day. Leave extra cards and cash at your hotel to mitigate theft risk.
3. Steer Clear of Freshwater Swimming:
To avoid health risks, refrain from swimming in freshwater bodies.
4. Be Cautious with Food and Drink:
Stick to bottled water and avoid street food. Avoid handling unknown animals.
5. Don't Bring Strangers to Your Hotel:
For your safety, avoid inviting people you just met to your room.
By following these guidelines, you'll be well-prepared for a rewarding and safe experience in Brazil. Enjoy your travels!
