Consejos a la hora de viajar:
- Distances between cities are big: don´t forget to take your ipod (or something to read).
- It is always good to take overnight buses: you can save money and time as you skip a night in a hostel and you don´t lose a day when traveling.
- Bus stations in Brazil are called Rodoviárias
- Rodoviarias offer many services. Consider having lunch or using the toilet before leaving or when arriving. In some places it may take a while to arrive to your hostel.
- When you arrive to a bus station (rodoviária), try not to display your valuables (camera, cell phone, etc.).
- It´s always useful to ask somebody about your destination. Even if you don´t speak a word of Portuguese, it´s always easy to find out where the 'centro' (downtown) is.
- Don´t get anxious if there´s a lot of people offering taxis: Find out first about a reasonable cost for your trip and then arrange the payment beforehand with the taxi driver, or if it is a metered taxi then make sure they use it.
- Consider using the local bus services. It´s much cheaper than taxi and also more fun!
- Your big backpack will be put under the bus in a storage compartment by one of the companies' employees. It is expected that you give these employees a couple of coins as a tip, and this will ensure better treatment of your bag.
- When the employee takes your bag they will give you a small receipt which you must produce to collect your bag at your destination. Put it somewhere you will remember!
- Do not keep your valuables in your big backpack when you are traveling on a bus as this bag will be out of your sight. Locks for your bag are always good! Keep your passport and valuables with you in your carry-on bag.
- Although it happens rarely in Brazil, you are safer keeping your carry-on bag between your legs and not in the over-heads.
- Always be wary of your bags in the terminals!
- Travel with something warm in case they run the air conditioning too strong. Even if it is hot as hell outside!
