Customer Reviews

Beautiful country, Beautiful travel guide?

This guide has beautiful pictures, but little in the way of actual travel information. I'm a very visual person and love to see where I might go. If this sounds like you too, then buy this book. Add Lonely Planet's guide and you are all set to go.

Full of Photos but missing details

This is an attractive book with lots of photos, but I found the Frommer's Guide to be more detailed and functional as a tourist visiting Brazil. There is a lot of useful information to be gained from this book.

Full of Culture!

I'm Brazilian and I bought this book for my american family right before our first trip together. The culture info. is great. Just a little outdated on economy issues and also the pictures are old. But over all, is the best guide I ever found! I read it now for pleasure. Sandra Thurston

Very good introductory book for "gringos"

My Brazilian friend living in New York with an American family bought this book for her "host" father as a Father's Day gift. Out of all of the books on Brazil she could have chosen, she selected this one because of its nice graphics and wide-variety of information about her native country. She recommend it so highly, that I bought one for myself.
