Yes. As of April 2025, Brazil requires US citizens to obtain a visa before travelling — the previous visa-free arrangement has ended. American travellers now need to apply for an electronic visa (e-visa) in advance of their trip. The e-visa is applied for online, so there's no need to visit a consulate in person, and it's typically valid for multiple entries over a period of several years. Your passport must also be valid for at least six months beyond your arrival date in Brazil. We recommend applying well ahead of departure, and we're happy to point you to the official application portal and confirm exactly what you'll need.

Brazil is visited by millions of travellers every year without incident. As in any large country, the usual precautions apply in cities — be aware of your surroundings, don't display valuables, use arranged transport at night. Travelling with a private guide and pre-booked transfers removes most of the friction, which is a large part of what we do.
o. Brazilians speak Portuguese, not Spanish, but all our guides speak English, and you'll be looked after throughout. A few words of Portuguese go a long way socially, though.
