An alternative Lonely Planet Brazil guide!

Lonely Planet Brazil guides truly revolutionized the way all travellers viewed the world. One of the oldest and most respected publishers of travellers guides, lonely Planet attracted tourists that wanted to know a little bit more about their destination before they got there. However, Lonely Planet Brazil now has its rivals, every single one of which can give you a different perspective and, when put together, can give you a complete view of one of the most beautiful areas of the world.
                                                 
Lonely Planet Brazil is more symbolic of the cultural and environmental fascination with Brazil than anything else at the moment. Various websites actually encourage individuals to post their views on every destination, and Brazil seems to be one of the most popular as a result of the rising number of people that are travelling at the moment owing to an immense desire to see the world.

There is much to see in Brazil, including the tropical coastline jungles and the Amazon basin, the miles of gorgeous coastline a few miles from Curitiba, the Carneval of Rio de Janeiro and the amazing shopping areas in all of the major towns and cities. The problem you may have is choosing what to do first, as well as avoiding the generic tourist haunts in favour or more obscure and often more Brazilian activities.

For example, Lonely Planet Brazil often advocates going for more traditional Brazilian activities than the more commercial ones, such as visiting wineries in Rio’s the Vale dos Vinhedos. Few tourists know about the wineries until they actually get to Brazil itself and will rarely travel there unless staying in Rio. Favela tours in Sao Paulo and Rio go largely unnoticed because travellers are scared of crime, but if you are travelling in a group then it is worth it!

A must whenever visiting Brazil is taking the time to enjoy the music, beats and rhythms of Brazilian culture. Lonely Planet Brazil guides will often recommend one or two clubs, but take your time to vet them in advance. Check out the kind of music they have there on flyers when you arrive and attend any events that you think will appeal to you. There are regional genres as well as mainstream genres in Brazil so taking the time to test the waters and maybe attend a few events and club nights. With entry at only $2 per show for the most part, you can afford to be choosy and move from one place to another so you get a real feel for Lonely Planet Brazil!
