Good to know before you go
The currency is the Brazilian real and Portuguese is the main language, with a tip of around 10 percent often added to restaurant bills. Traffic is famously heavy, so lean on the extensive metro to skip the gridlock and use a ride-hailing app like Uber or 99 for trips beyond the lines, which is safer and simpler than driving yourself. Stay aware of your surroundings as in any large city, and keep valuables tucked away in crowded areas.
Entry requirements and health
e-Visa required
You'll need a visa for this one, but the whole thing is done online before you go. Apply a little ahead of your trip and travel with the approval in hand.
Vaccines and health
Many travellers get vaccinated against hepatitis A and typhoid, which spread through food and water. Yellow fever vaccination is recommended for some areas, and it's worth keeping the certificate handy. Malaria is present in some areas, so ask a clinic whether antimalarials make sense for your route.
