Has anyone been to Brazil recently? Looking for the latest intel.
Specifically interested in:
- Current price ranges
- Best areas right now
- Any safety concerns to be aware of
- Apps or platforms to use
I was there a while back and had a decent time. Wondering if things have changed.
Trying to decide between this and Germany.
Cheers
Fortaleza — still the best area in Brazil?

Spot on with the prices. Matches what I paid recently.

Quick question — how was the ATM situation?

First time was overwhelming but exciting. Second time was so much more efficient. Experience makes all the difference.

Good info. Going during the week is much better — less crowded and better prices.

Word of caution — be careful with street touts. Other than that, great destination.

I was there in February and prices were exactly as described. Spent about $150/day all-in.
My tip: go early evening.

Adding my experience: scene has improved since pre-COVID. Biggest change: more online activity.
