Is it risky to walk around Rio alone?
I'm Brazilian, living in the northeast of Brazil. I stumbled upon this website to post an ad and saw your question, so I didn’t hesitate to reply. Yes, it’s completely possible to have a great trip to Rio, but you really need to be careful. We Brazilians already have a kind of natural hypervigilance that Europeans don’t necessarily have because you’re not used to having to be wary of everyone... It’s not to scare you, but just so you stay cautious.
Maragogi – peaceful stay by the sea in Northeast Brazil
Hi there,
I’m offering a room with a private bathroom in our home in Peroba, near Maragogi, in Northeast Brazil.
The house is right by the sea, in a quiet spot close to beaches and the natural pools of the Costa dos Corais. It’s perfect for a few days or a longer stay, especially if you're looking for a peaceful place to relax or work remotely.
We live on-site and speak Portuguese, French, and English.
You can find photos, rates, and all the details here:

Feel free to reach out if you have any questions about the house or the area! 😊
14 days in Brazil end of March/early April 2027: itinerary tips
Have you already decided on your itinerary? Brazil is huge. Are you staying in the Southeast region for the whole trip?
Is it risky to walk around Rio alone?
You can walk around "casually" especially in the southern part of Rio. That said, you still need to be very careful, especially since you're a woman traveling alone. Yeah, there’s always a risk of getting your phone stolen, so it’s best to stay alert.
Rio’s a bit of a unique place in Brazil, particularly with the strong presence of militias in certain areas.
What to visit in Brazil in March?
March is the end of summer in Brazil, and right after Carnival, it’s a great time to explore the country.
For getting around, apps like Uber and Bolt are widely used. There’s also public transport: buses, the subway...
If you get the chance to visit Recife, you won’t regret it! About two hours from Recife, you’ll find the beaches in the Maragogi area (Peroba, Antunes, etc.), with their natural pools and a much more "real life" vibe than Fernando de Noronha.
