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 last year and had a decent time. Wondering if things have changed.
Planning to go back next month.
Cheers
Avoid Fortaleza? Or is it fine?

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

First time was a learning experience. Second time was much better. Experience makes all the difference.

Been there 12 times now. Still one of my top destinations. The quality is what keeps me coming back.

Word of caution — do not carry too much cash. Other than that, great destination.
