Of course, Brazil has much more to offer than most holiday destinations: apart from the beaches, nightlife and the national parks, there some of the best galleries and museums in the world along with, it goes without saying, carnival. And the world's most famous carnival is treated to all the attention here the traveller could wish (as is soundtrack of carnival – the indelible sound of samba). Particularly useful here are the walks, scenic routes and thematic tours. If you're planning a trip to Brazil, you need look no further than this. --Barry Forshaw.
