Does a British citizen need a visa to visit Brazil?

You can go to Brazil only with your passport, you will get a stamp here for tourism pourposes only. You can stay for 6 months in Brazil!

I hope you enjoy the country!

And if I may suggest, go to the northeast (great beaches and people), Mina Gerais (historical state with historical towns) and also the amazon region. I'm Brazilian and I must confess, try to avoid Rio de Janeiro. It's beautiful, but Brazil has much more to show and without the violence that Rio has!

With its bright sandy beaches, traveling hills and picturesque harbour, it's no surprise that Rio de Janeiro is known as the "cidade maravilhosa", or marvellous city and with hotelbye you can take the chance and visit this phenomenal city. Rio de Janeiro is experiencing the South Atlantic shore and may be the second-largest town in Brazil. This city is fortunate with one of the most beautiful normal options for a town in the world. The stunning landscape is one among the reason why that guests decided Rio de Janeiro. Throughout carnival time, a event that everybody heard, the roads load with music and ornately costumed dancers attracting tourists from all over the globe.

Citizens of the UK do not need a visa to Brazil if they are visiting for Tourism purposes.

You don't need it. They only require visas for citizens of countries that require visas from Brazilians. It's called retribution. The UK doesn't require Brazilians to get a visa, although I think they should cause in some parts of London you hear more Portuguese than English.

Why not ask the Brazilian embasy for a definitive answer? Foreign Office http://www.fco.gov.uk/servlet/Front?pagename=OpenM... has contact details.

no but you need your yellow fever certificate
