How to get from Rio Galeão Airport to Ipanema?
by Alod · 2025-09-27 · 1 reply
Hello, We’re arriving at Rio Galeão on October 10th at 4:40 PM. We’ve booked a hotel near Ipanema. I’ve seen there are several options to get to Ipanema—bus plus metro, taxis—but I haven’t found any shuttle bus. Could you tell me if one exists and, if so, where to catch it at the airport? Thanks in advance

Visiting Northeast Brazil in January-February
by Ceinture · 2025-09-17 · 2 replies
hi there I’m thinking of heading to northeastern Brazil in January or February—I don’t really have a choice with the dates. Apparently, it rains a lot during that time. Is it really a big issue for traveling? Are these tropical downpours—heavy but brief—or more of a continuous rain? I’m especially curious about the stops in Lençóis, Atins, and Parnaíba. For Lençóis, I know the lagoons are almost empty at this time of year. I’ll also be passing through São Luís, Jericoacoara, Fortaleza, Olinda/Recife, and Salvador da Bahia, and before heading back to Europe, I’ll visit the Iguaçu Falls. What do you think? Thanks in advance for your reply. Best regards

Transport from Bahia to Morro and then from Boipeba to Bahia
by MrSoyouz · 2025-07-11 · 2 replies
Hi there!

I’m heading to Morro de São Paulo in the first half of September.

I’ll spend a day in Bahia and then take the fast ferry to Morro from the Terminal Turístico Náutico. I’ve heard this ferry can be canceled depending on sea conditions. Locals from Bahia, can you tell me if cancellations are common in early September or if it’s usually not a big deal?

After Morro, I’ll spend a few days in Boipeba.

My question is about the return trip to Bahia to catch my flight home.

Is it better to go back through Morro to take the ferry in the opposite direction, or can I leave directly from Boipeba to Bahia?

I want to avoid long trips and bus rides.

If there’s no way around a road trip, I could take a taxi, Uber, or something similar.

Obrigado pela ajuda for helping me optimize my route: Bahia → Morro / Boipeba → Bahia! :)

Hello everyone! I’m Sophie, 39 years old, easygoing, pretty dynamic, and I love nature, animals, and especially traveling 😊. I think I’m pretty easy to get along with. I’ve been in Latin America for almost a year now with my van and my two adorable dogs ❤️. Starting July 10, 2025, I’ll be heading up the Brazilian coast from Paraty (state of Rio) to Fortaleza in the north—about 2,800 km, which I plan to do in 3 weeks, averaging around 200 km a day so I can enjoy the coast ☺️. I’m looking for a female co-pilot to join me for the whole trip or just part of it, and to share the gas costs 😊. My van is super well set up for two people. If you’re interested, don’t hesitate to reach out—my WhatsApp is +33789077282. Maybe see you soon! 😄 Sophie, Nala, and Asuna

Safety and mosquitoes in Brazil
by Aurelie3 · 2025-05-04 · 6 replies
Hi there,

I’m heading to Brazil soon—Rio, Iguazu, Paraty, Ilha Grande.

Two things are worrying me: - Mosquitoes and the nasty diseases they carry: are there a lot of mosquitoes and risks in these areas in May? - Safety: what’s the current situation in the tourist areas I mentioned?

Thanks for any info!
