The guide features gorgeous photographs and maps and a chapter full of in-depth, practical information, including how to get around the country, an extensive listing of handpicked hotels and restaurants, and selective shopping and entertainment options. It includes walking and driving tours through Rio's Historic Centro and the wineries of Bento Goncalves; experiential sidebars (dance the salsa, join in Carnaval, kite surf in northeast Brazil); and insider tips from National Geographic experts.
