I had a great time! Overall, I felt safe. I asked around and was advised not to go to a certain area of the town, and I didn’t. Walking alone during the day was no problem. At night, I tried to go out less, but there was no problem in the town center. The local people were super friendly. I went on several excursions: took a boat trip, did a jeep tour to the waterfalls and distilleries where cachaça is made. It was the national literature fair and it was SO lively (this was in November). Highly...

I went there with my Cousin (so it wasn't really as a couple) and we loved it, specially the beach "carro quebrado". If you go there and stay at a resort try to eat outside and visit less touristy beaches. Got some caipirinhas for R$15 or less and the food was really good! I do recommend going with a man tho and getting a car while being there, which makes it far less expensive then doing lots of tours

I loved the people and rio has a lot of nice places to go. It's the perfect combination between nature and city life. Take samba lessons if possible, it's totally worth the experience! Motorcycle rides sometimes could be cheaper than you may think

Araras is a pretty calm place, during the day is safe and very peaceful. At night inst good for girls, so I didnt recommend leave without a local. Some areas can be dangerous, but they're households, so you didnt go there ever.
Posted: April 16, 2026In the central region, like Sé, Luz and Parque Dom Pedro II are little bit dangerous, is not recommended to take your cellphones, if you are lost, enter in some grocery, restaurant to check your phone, never get it at the street.
Posted: March 29, 2026It’s a city very safe, just don’t walk alone in the night where is less people or dark places. In general, it's a good place, just be aware like others places, and don’t give money for homeless people
