This pathfinder includes information about Brazilian tourism and sports. Before embarking on any foreign trip you should check with the appropriate governmental offices for visa and consular information. Some of these links are found on the Embassies: Brazil page. One should also check with such sites as the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (http://www.cdc.gov/travel/destinat.htm). Their Travelers’ Health page provides information on health and safety topics including vaccinations, diseases, health risks, travel notices, and references and resources. The CDC site is searchable by region and country.

Included here are travel advisories, hotels, transportation, cuisine, and sports. Any links to commercial sites on this page are for informational purposes only; please read the official disclaimer.

We have arranged this pathfinder into the following sections:

General Travel in Brazil | Cities | Regions | Sports

For information about additional resources on recreation and travel found in the collections at the Library of Congress, consult its online catalog (http://catalog.loc.gov).
