Brazil is a huge country to get your arms around. I wish this were a much bigger book, with more pictures and text, but I'm happy with what's there. You could do a book this length on Sao Paulo alone.

Brazil Travels

Going to Brazil then this is an excellent travel book. We like the high quality pages and the printing which is easy to read. This is an excellent booth for finding places to visit in Brazil. We used it extensively on our trip to Rio de Janerio and found that every penny we paid for it was worth it. One thing we like about these books is that the historical spots never change thus you get a book that can be used for years whereas many other travel books need to be updated on a yearly basis.

BEST TRAVEL GUIDES.

EYEWITNESS TRAVEL GUIDES are the best guides you could find. I've bought every one they have published to the places I have visited, and always know where I want to go and what are the most important places to visit, with the pictures and 3D images of the buildings and maps I don't get surprises as to visit a place not worth while. You optimize your travel time. I have about twenty of their guides, just hope they increase the places they review in the near future.

always good

I travel a lot and always try to get the DK Eyewitness book for the area I am visiting--they are accurate and informative. And I like the pictures--before and after I see the real areas.
