This is a great video! I’m American, but I’ve completely submerged myself in the Brazilian culture with all the Brazilian friends I’ve made here in Orlando the last 7 years and have also completely learned the language. I’m completely in love with Brazil and it’s people! I’ve been there only 3 times but plan on going back many more!

2:05 It's correct (to have some bills) but in big cities (Like Rio, São Paulo, Recife, etc) you probably will not have any problem to pay with credit card in almost any place... 4:15 For tourists without a local guide or friend try to buy (and check the reputation of the companies) online. Event if aren't big cities there is good options for the tourist cities (like Ouro Preto). 8:35 For most of us Brazilians if there is no rice and beans it's not a 'true meal' 8:55 I confirm that, if you're a 'walker tourist' you can buy some bottled water on the supermarket take them with you when exploring the cities, and save some money and time (instead of stop in each corner to buy water). 9:35 It's true for local mass produced beer, but nowadays it's easy to find a lot of European and American beers in almost all restaurants and bars... But probably they will be served cooler than in US and Europe. 10:35 In some cities the tip is mandatory, but it's expressed in the bill (service tax) as said in the video. 11:25 Also is worth to note that some cities use 110V and others 220V, but uses the same plug ... So if your device it's not 'auto volt', confirm the voltage before use it... You will probably find one adapter in the airport. 13:35 Bonito means beautiful in Portuguese, so you know what to expect here... If i can help anyone, just ask here and will try my best (if youtube notifies me).

Absolutely accurate,I'm Brazilian. May I add that, when booking Uber via the app, you may receive a message from the driver asking where are you going. That is illegal, don't answer, the driver is obligated to take you to your destination, no matter how close or far it is. Otherwise, Uber is way better than a regular cab.

If a tourist can reach a 3 or 4 big cities or tourist places...two visits can be sufficient to get a ideia from Brazil. There's mountains on south...beaches on northeast, the forest...some good big roads too. They're sun October to march everyday single day on northeast...5 star's hotel 200 to 400 usd a day all meal and drinks included. Plan all your visits and walk less on big cities for safety...don't ask info on streets...ask on restaurants, malls etc or Google it. They're little cities that are amazing to walk and shots photos...like Gramado- RS, Paraty-RJ and some Minas Gerais historical cities and its safe too.

Don't forget to mention there are hard limits to retrieve cash from ATM, these limits are completely random. One day you may be able to retrieve 1000 BRL the next one maybe 600. Also there are service fees, you pay between 24 and 32 BRL to retrieve your own money from an ATM. In some towns you will not find one single working ATM, despite the banks claiming that "it" should work, so always bring some emergency cash.

One tip wrt the plugs just in case anybody from Brasil is watching: while European plugs do work in Brasil, the opposite might not always work. I once accidentally packed the wrong plug when going to Switzerland/France (the Brasil instead of the EU one) and while it worked fine in France, it didn't really fit in Switzerland because the prongs are a tiny bit wider than the Swiss ones.

If the plug shape is round (European), it won't work in Brazilian outlets but Brazilian plugs with 2 pins will usually work in Europe... some European plugs (especially phone chargers for example) are likely to work in Brazil because they're narrower

Great video! I would like suggesting visiting the south of Brazil! Brazil is a melting pot of culture! In the south you will find the best barbecue (I know you love Kansas City and it’s barbecue), specially the ribs! In some cities in Santa Catarina (where I’m from) and Rio Grande do Sul most people understand Spanish, some German, Poland, Italian speakers… And we take credit card almost everywhere. First stop: Florianópolis! Joaquim as beach, Jurere International, Cacupé ( Zé do Cacupe, restaurant), Ribeirão da Ilha (restaurant Ostradamus- that’s my fav). Other cities like: Blumenau (Octoberfest), Pomerode, Joinville… Rio Grande do Sul: you must visit Serra gaúcha! There so many other amazing places to visit! As you said before Brazil is big as America! It is with many trips.

I'm Brasilian, and if you have a international credit card you'll be fine most of the time, except if you want to visit simple villages of any state. Brasil is very advanced in payment options. The traffic is not bad but there's a lot of cars specially at São Paulo city, and i really recommend study the traffic signs, pay attention and you'll be safe to drive, except at Goiás (joke) but they have the fame of bad drivers. Came and visit us, but respect our girls. The stereotypes aren't the reality and many foreigners came with the wrong idea, so you could have problems (not joke 🤣). But we are all receptive people and ready to help you.

My thoughts from being there for a month over Christmas, travelling from Sao Sebastian, Sao Paulo, all the way up to Recife, took flights, hire cars and Ubers...The standards of driving terrified me. Brazilians don't like being behind another car, and will overtake on blind bends, coming up to the brows of hills, on mountainsides...I handed over driving duties pretty quickly to my partner I can tell you, then closed my eyes. A lot. Even the Uber drivers have a death wish, and certainly won't wait ten seconds to get to a spot in the road when they can over/undertake through three lanes to get there in eight. The state of the roads we'd also been warned about so were ready for the potholes, the abundance of motorbikes, dogs in the street and pedestrians crossing at night wearing dark clothing...Food didn't take long to totally 'slow my transit' shall we say. Started worrying when there were two or three days between visits, ended up purely drinking yogurt drinks for a time. Eating out became quite bland, with so many restaurants offering the same staples at prices very similar to what you'd pay in England, i.e around 30 quid for two with the drinks. That said I did go to one steakhouse/buffet in Sao Paulo towards the end of the stay (Trevvison) and it was better than any other place combined. Ouro Preto was lovely, but also scary to get to along the mountainsides, and the roads in the actual town are like being on a roller coaster they are sooo steep! Loved the churches, and Sebastian the guide attached himself to us for a reasonable rate during our weekend there. Never seemed to stop raining and our guesthouse, though ok, had only basic blankets for the chilly evening. From Minas Gerias we flew north and enjoyed both the paradises that were Maciao and Maragogi. Beaches were to die for, though at the latter I had a few jellyfish? stings that got me racing out of the water. Also visited San Miguel dos milegres, Porto de Galinhas, Fonteleza which were all pretty decent, though at the first place, where we were in a little cabin type hut, I got my first site of the Marimbundo close up. It absolutely terrified me. Think of a black dragon fly, bent in half, flying silently that can bite AND sting! Certainly made me hanker for the much smaller wasps back home! All in all, and taking away the 'warnings' that I have given you here, it was a pretty stress free itinary. The people were welcoming and friendly, not once did we feel unsafe, but to be be fair towards the end of the month we had no money for them any robbers to take anyway! It was strange for me to see all the Christmas displays in the sunshine, but I got some great pictures with 10 foot Santa Claus statues. I also got a snap of me with a curious Capybara in the background which was another highlight. Learn some Portuguese before you go folks and have a great time...maybe for just a couple of weeks only though?

In Brazil, pretty much everywhere accepts cards with the exception of some small stalls selling street food or souvenirs. It is actually better than Europe because AMEX and Discover are widely accepted. They even offer you to make payments in instalments if you want and would pay no interest whatsoever (very uncommon for foreigners and I usually do not accept it but it is OK). Credit and Debit Cards are widely accepted BUT Debit Cards do not pass on their machines as Debit but as Credit. When giving your card to the teller, they will ask if it is a debit or credit - ALWAYS say it is a Credit (even if it is a Debit). If you do so, you will have no problems. Debit Cards in Brazil are only NATIONAL Debit Cards linked to a Brazilian ID.

Só uma observação, se o garçom te atendeu excepcionalmente bem vc pode sim dar uma gorjeta por fora! Não precisa ser algo absurdo e eles ficam bem felizes!

There is a city called Fortaleza. There is a highway 🛣 that leads up there.

The highway actually crosses the whole country folks, BR116 you go from Fortaleza in the very North-East tip to Porto Alegre down in the very south.

If Argentina/Uruguay were wealthier, there would a lot more snowbirds and just sunseeking tourists in general along the coast from Rio de Janeiro northwards, and especially in Bahia and the Northeast, during the Southern Hemisphere winter!

How is exchange rate when you using your debit card to take cash? Which banks are good for people from USA?
@Utygyihgfggc
@Utygyihgfggc 3 жыл бұрын
Close to the true exchange rate of the currency. Say it’s 1 dollar = 5.21 you’ll get it for 5.05 definitely worth it!!! Don’t buy the currency, use debit mostly and cash out some money at the atm in a shopping center. Any visa debit card will work perfectly, just run it as credit even if it is debit.

Literally every single one of those words in the beginning allllll directly sound exactly like the Spanish translation but are spelled different lol... but I know what you're saying I've had portugués people try to speak portugués with me but I could only understand half the words. If they talk slow I can plug and play in my head and figure out what's being said.

Just an update: Now there's a really good option of doing transactions with PIX and a digital wallet. Convenient and safe.

Portuguese speakers usually understand Spanish quite well. Obviously, not everything. But enough to where they get the idea of what you're saying.

Brazil is a trip I've been planning for 2021. My only real concern of course is Covid-19. Brazil is one of the worst hit countries. Hopefully, by around Sept.-Oct. the situation will be more under control than it is now. That's the time I plan on going.
