Brazil Guide

The Brazil Guide is the only guide to Brazil by Brazilians. It contains discerning descriptions and vivid, color photographs of the best sights, hotels and restaurants, and it offers comprehensive information on the country's historical, natural and cultural heritage.

Hundreds of illustrations and listings will almost plan the details of your trip for you. Once you are on Brazilian soil, 120 full-color maps will guide you along your choice of dozens of recommended itineraries.

And special articles by prominent Brazilians and knowledgeable foreigners offer insights that will expand your understanding of this vast and unique land - from the rhythms of Rio to the verdant and life-sustaining current of the Amazon.

A large team of dedicated Brazilian professionals collaborated to research, write and illustrate this guidebook.

They scoured their entire country to turn up the best deals for travelers of all nationalities. Every restaurant description, every recommended rainforest hike, every insightful cultural observation conveys their depth of experience and enthusiasm.

Then, American journalist and veteran guidebook editor Ben Harder - who formerly ran the Let's Go travel series - reviewed the guide to tailor this edition to the needs of English-speaking travelers. The result, a travel companion in the truest sense, offers savvy advice and informed commentary in equal measure.
