Editorial Reviews:

Amazon.co.uk Review
From Antarctica to Zimbabwe, if you are going there chances are Lonely Planet has been there first. With a pithy and matter-of-fact writing style, these guides are guaranteed to calm the nerves of first-time world travellers, while still listing off-the-beaten-path finds sure to thrill even the most jaded globe-trotters. Lonely Planet has been perfecting its guidebooks for nearly 30 years and as a result, has experience and know-how similar to an older sibling's "been there" advice. The original backpacker's bible, the LP series has recently widened its reach. While still giving insights for the low-budget traveller, the books now list a wide range of accommodations and itineraries for those with less time than money.

>From the stunning splendour of Iguacu Falls to the mysteries of the Amazon River to the wild debauchery of Carnaval and the cosmopolitan streets of Sao Paulo City, Lonely Planet's Brazil will help you navigate this vast country in the style that suits you, from low-budget to no-budget. Highlights include extensive coverage of parks and festivals, well-researched sections on ecology and environment, a Portuguese language chapter, and a special feature on Carnaval. --Kathryn True

3 out of 5 stars Good Book: badly needs updating   February 26, 2001
 3 out of 3 found this review helpful

LP has become the landmark of guidebooks in recent years and the guide to Brasil doesnt fail to disappoint. Not only is the format easy to use and readable but the guide is packed with witty notes, a well researched history and cultural section and enough back ground to get you from Rio to the Amazon and back again in one piece. The two major drawbacks of this current guide is that many of the phone numbers, especially in the North, are out of date which can leave travelers frustrated. The second problem is that sonce the currency in Brasil has been devalued the prices in the book bare no relation to real life. If these small points are updated then the book would easily merit 5*
