Campsites in Brazil, camping in Brazil ( Brasil )

Camping out in Brazil is the cheapest form of temporary housing available, especially if you are going to Brazil for the 2014 World Cup. All camp sites are now taking bookings for 2014, and with the millions of fans expected to attend, they are looking forward to a bumper year. Camping is not to common in Brazil, possibly because of the amount of insects, snakes and spiders that are there. But tour operators do offer camping trips, mainly into the Amazon jungle. It may be advisable to hire a motor home instead of a tent, at least you are not sleeping on the floor then, some of the spiders are as big as a mans hand.

There is a camping club in Brazil, it is called "Camping clube do Brasil", if you apply to become a member and can get membership, you only then pay 50% of the usual daily tariffs. It could be a big saving if you are planning to see as many football matches as possible,as there are nearly fifty camping sites, that are owned by Camping clube do Brasil, all in fourteen different states. All of these camping sites have shower and toilet facilities, a restaurant and a cafe, a bar, which is essential to any body with children, World Cup or not. They do have security, but each site is different, to be safe, always hide important paperwork and only take enough money out of your account for what you need that day.

You may need a permit to camp in certain areas of Brazil, if you are just going to stop and pitch your tent, think twice, the police may move you on, or you might be robbed. Don't forget, Brazil is covered in only part discovered areas, as the jungle is so dense, and some parts are very wild, and that's not just where the parties are. Be careful in Brazil. You would always be safer if you camp either in an official campsite or with lots of other campers, do not just wander into the jungle and pitch up camp there, waking up next to a three meter rattle snake is not a good idea.
