🍜 Local food to try:  One of the things that if you go to BH, you MUST try, is the Pão de Queijo (Cheesy Puffs).

Other dishes are Feijão Tropeiro, Tutu à Mineira, Queijo Minas, Doce de Leite, Cachaça and Café Mineiro.

Where is Belo Horizonte Brazil Located?

Belo horizonte map .

Affectionately called BH, the city is located in the central region of Minas Gerais, a mountainous region with a special and unique topography. It stands out a lot in the economy, and it is in the top five of the best economies in the country. It still has one of the best foods, in my opinion, and a very rich cultural life.

What State is Belo Horizonte In? 

BH is located in the Southeast region of Brazil. It is the capital of the state of Minas Gerais, one of the largest in the country. Despite not having beaches, it is very close to coastal states, such as Rio de Janeiro and Espírito Santo. But be aware when visiting Belo Horizonte, as you are at great risk of falling in love with the city and not wanting to return home.

What’s the Closest Airport to Belo Horizonte Brazil?

It is Confins Airport (CNF) Belo Horizonte International Airport. An interesting curiosity to know is that Confins Airport was elected one of the best in the world according to a survey carried out in 2022 based on passenger satisfaction. It is an excellent airport, very clean and organized, with many food options. After all, Belo Horizonte does not disappoint.

What is the Best Way to Get to Your Belo Horizonte Hotel?

When you arrive at Confins International Airport (CNF) in BH, there are a few transportation options to get you to the place you have chosen to stay. 

This Belo Horizonte travel guide recommends that you use private transportation so that you don’t have any worries and also so that you feel safer. However, if you like adventures, there are other means you can use. 

A taxi is a means of transport that can be used which will take you to the door of your hotel.

Uber is also a safe way to get to your hotel. In the app, you can already see the amount that your trip will cost, and you will have the path that will be taken to your hotel.

Renting a car is an option to get to know Belo Horizonte even more. You will need to take some precautions when traveling, just like anywhere else in the world. Remember to ask all your questions about the lease and the contract so you don’t have to worry about it.

💡 Pro Tip: If you are planning to take an Uber, make sure that you have a Brazil SIM card so that your phone operates properly. You never want to depend on free public WIFI for using your ride-share apps. 

How to Get Around Belo Horizonte?

Ride Sharing (top choice): When I went to BH, during my entire trip, I only traveled by Uber and on foot in the closest places where this was possible. This is an option that I found very safe and without so much pain.

Rent a Car (top choice): Car leasing can also be a great option, but it is important that you ask all questions before leaving with the car, including contract and insurance issues. And remember to bring your valid documents and be prepared to drive on the right side.

Take a Taxi:  

Using a taxi is a very good option, but it can be a little expensive, as traffic in Belo Horizonte can be a little slow at certain times of the day. Make sure the taximeter is on, or if the driver says it is a flat rate, ask for it in advance so you don’t get scammed. It is important to take this into account. But it’s one of the safest options if you don’t want to drive or rent a car to get to know BH. 💡 Extra Tip: If you stay in Savassi, a great neighborhood in BH, with a little excitement, you can walk all the way to Praça da Liberdade, as the neighborhood is very close.

When to Go to Belo Horizonte?

The weather in Belo Horizonte is pleasant all year round. The city has a cool and breezy climate, which is a plus point for walking around this beautiful city. Let’s take a look at the best time to visit Belo Horizonte.

Where to Stay in Belo Horizonte Brazil? (By Neighborhood)

There are many good places to stay in Belo Horizonte, and this will also depend on how much you are willing to pay for your accommodation and the type of trip you are taking.

The options that this Belo Horizonte travel guide shows you are: Savassi (the best central location and for nightlife), Centro (solo travelers and groups), Lourdes (couples), and Pampulha (families).

I’ve summarized this topic to make it easier to understand what each of these different neighborhoods can offer you. 

Savassi (Best Central Location And Nightlife)

Savassi is a very busy and vibrant neighborhood, it has a busy nightlife with many bars, pubs, and nightclubs. There are good restaurants, with a wide Minas Gerais cuisine. It also has shops, bookstores, art gallery. Here, your restless nights will be guaranteed.

City Center (solo travelers and groups)

The City Center is a place that is close to many sights, markets, shops, and parks. The center of Belo Horizonte is where culture and history meet urban hustle. Staying in the city center can make your trip easier, as there are many attractions within walking distance, and you can walk these routes, so you can explore BH to the fullest.

Lourdes (Couples)

Lourdes is a more expensive and sophisticated neighborhood. It is good for enjoying good food, designer stores, and good hotels with your partner. It’s a place for those who want a more refined, safe, and quiet experience. In this area, prices tend to be higher than in other locations. But it’s a stay you certainly won’t regret. 

Pampulha (Families)

Pampulha, is very popular because it is known for its architecture and history. It is a quieter place, with famous sights, lots of nature, good food, and accommodation options on the edge of Lagoa da Pampulha. It’s a breathtaking view.

Best Things to Do in Belo Horizonte Brazil

• Lagoa da Pampulha: it is the main tourist spot in Belo Horizonte. It is unsuitable for bathing. Locals and tourists like to practice sports on the edge of the lagoon, walk with the family, and enjoy all the activities that are around, such as: the Yacht Club, São Francisco de Assis Church, Museums, and Art Galleries. For those who like nature like me, this is a place that is really worth visiting, taking a walk, and enjoying such an incredible and peaceful place when looking for what to do in BH.
• Zoo and Botanical Garden: This Belo Horizonte travel guide recommends that you visit the Zoo-botanical Park of BH. There, you will find approximately 4 thousand animals of more than 250 species. Like hippos, gorillas, and lions. If you’ve already found this amazing, the park also has a large aquarium with 1 million liters of water and about 60 species of fish. And there’s more, in the same place there is also a butterfly garden, a Japanese garden and a reptile house. It is a perfect place to visit, whether alone, as a couple, or as a family.
• Mineirão: For soccer lovers, the Governador Magalhães Pinto Stadium is the stage for football in Minas Gerais. Better known as Mineirão, this stadium has a capacity for more than 60,000 visitors. It has hosted many important games, such as the World Cup. And even if you don’t like soccer very much, I think it’s worth going to see a game at this stadium. Because on game days, the city is transformed, and the locals are very proud to have the fifth-largest stadium in Brazil.
• Mineirinho : I could say that Mineirinho would be the younger brother of Mineirão, but no. The Jornalista Felipe Drummond Stadium is a multi-sport gym with a capacity for approximately 25,000 people. It is the scene of great concerts, volleyball games and among others. It is worth going to an event in Mineirinho.
•   Central Market: This place is a reference when it comes to good food in BH. It is located in the central region of Belo Horizonte. This place is right next to Raul Soares Square, where you will find more than 400 stores with WONDERFUL typical food, spices, sweets from Minas Gerais, cheeses, and lots of handcrafts. A very important thing to know is that the Central Market also has a bilingual service. I believe this makes a huge difference for the tourists who visit it, as the Central Market has been in existence for almost a century and still preserves its origins.
• Municipal Park: The Américo Renné Guannetti Municipal Park is better known as Municipal Park. It has a total area of 180,000 square meters. There are several toys for children and a lagoon where you can rent a boat for a ride. In addition to other very cool activities if you are interested in going there.
• Praça da Liberdade: This Belo Horizonte travel guide recommends that you include a trip to Praça da Liberdade in your itinerary. Not only will it give you good pictures (it’s one of BH’s postcards), but it’s also the biggest integrated set of culture in Brazil. You will have great backdrops for photos. Because it is full of flowers, grass, and water fountains, it forms the ideal setting for your clicks. If it’s on a clear day, then even better. In addition, the surroundings of the square are known as “Circuito Liberdade.” The old public buildings now house museums, interactive spaces, a library, and a planetarium.
• Parque Serra do Curral: It is the tourist spot that represents Belo Horizonte. It is a sensational place, which is even the symbol of BH. This park has an area of 400 thousand square meters, and the vegetation is very heterogeneous with native animals, in addition to Campo de Altitude, Cerrado, and Atlantic Forest. In the park, there are some places with an average altitude of 1100 to 1380 meters with walking trails, lookouts, squares, places to rest, and also to admire the landscape.
• Praça do Papa: The square is located in a prime area of BH, in the Mangabeiras neighborhood. It is close to a high point in the city, at the foot of the Serra do Curral, which allows for an incredible view. It’s a great place to have a picnic and take the kids for a walk.
• Museu de Artes e Ofícios: It is the first Brazilian museum dedicated entirely to the theme of labor. The Museum is located in a charming building with an incredible collection of more than 2,000 pieces. They tell the story of arts and crafts in our nation. It is a very visual and very rich museum. It is an unmissable tour of BH.
• Feira Hippie: Like all tours, this one is also a must on Sundays. In it, you will find everything. There are clothes, food, crafts, furniture, and much more. I loved walking through the Hippie Fair. This is a tour that is already part of the places and surroundings of BH.

Is Belo Horizonte Safe for Tourists?

On my visit to Belo Horizonte, I found it to be a safe city, with plenty of police on the streets, for example. But, as with anywhere you visit, it’s important to be aware of your surroundings to ensure that your trip as a whole is very peaceful and enjoyable.

I think the main concern is petty theft. Well, anywhere in the world, it can happen. So the more organized and planned your trip is, the safer you will certainly be. 

💡 Now I Will Give You Some Professional Security Tips for Each City You Travel To:

• Be careful with your belongings: As in any city you travel to, it is important to be careful with your personal objects, such as bags, wallets, smartphones, and watches. Do not leave valuables in plain sight in vehicles.
• Avoid dangerous places: We cannot completely trust an area just because it is touristy. Well, there are many cases of petty theft. It is advisable to avoid unknown neighborhoods as they have higher crime rates, especially if it is at night.
• Safe transportation: Only use trusted taxi services or highly rated Uber to get around the city at night rather than walking in unfamiliar areas.
• Do not display valuables: Avoid displaying valuables, such as expensive jewelry, cameras, and watches, in public places, as this draws unwanted attention to yourself. 
• Local information: Ask for information at your hotel about areas that are safe and places you should avoid that could be considered dangerous.
• Emergency information: Leave emergency telephone numbers written down, such as the police and medical services, so that in case of need, you will already have them at hand.
• Pay attention to traffic: As traffic in Belo Horizonte can be somewhat chaotic, be alert when crossing streets or if you are driving. Use crosswalks and observe road signs.

We know that all the precautions we take related to travel are essential, regardless of the destination. Although Belo Horizonte is a largely safe city for tourists, it is very important to always be aware of your surroundings and take safe measures to ensure a smooth and pleasant trip.

As safety conditions may vary from time to time, so check for up-to-date safety information before your trip.

The Short Answer: If you are traveling from the US, Canada, Australia, and Japan, the answer is no, UNTIL October 1, 2023, then the answer is yes. Currently, no visa is necessary from European Union (EU) countries. This looks like it will be the case even after October 1, 2023. 

The Longer Answer: Traveling to Brazil is a great experience, but it is important to make sure you have all your ducks in a row so to speak. That means having the proper documentation needed to enter the country. 

Here’s what you need to know about securing a visa for Brazil, specifically for citizens of the US, Canada, Australia, Japan, and European Union (EU) countries.

Section 1: US, Canada, Australia, and Japan Citizens of the US, Canada, Australia, and Japan can currently enter visa-free travel to Brazil for tourism or business purposes. 

This applies to stays of up to 90 days within a 12-month period. All you need is a valid passport with an expiry date at least six months beyond your intended departure from Brazil.

Brazil is looking to implement the visa requirement again for these four countries as of October 1, 2023, so plan in advance for this. 

Section 2: European Union (EU)  Nationals

For most European Union citizens, including those from the UK, Germany, France, and Italy, also benefit from visa-free entry to Brazil. 

This policy permits EU nationals to stay in Brazil for tourism or business purposes for up to 90 days within a 12-month period. Like others, they will need a passport that is valid for at least six months past the date of entry into Brazil.

Visa and immigration requirements can and do change. It is always advised to check the latest information from the official government websites of Brazil or your home country’s foreign travel advisory services before making travel plans.

For the most recent and comprehensive information about visa requirements for all nationalities, consult the Brazilian Ministry of Foreign Affairs website or a Brazilian embassy or consulate near you during your pre-planning phase of your trip. 

The October 1st, 2023 update does not look like it will affect EU Nationals, but research accordingly here .

What Do I Need on My Brazil Packing List? 

Perhaps the worst thing is packing a suitcase that is too big and having to take these things that are not important with you to the other side of the world. It’s also a terrible thing to really need something and not have it. This can ruin anyone’s mood.

Packing your bags for a trip to Brazil or any other destination you want, in fact, should be done well in advance! Take only what you need, so you don’t have to carry too much luggage.

Here’s a List I’ve Curated for This Belo Horizonte Travel Guide:

🔌 Power Adapters: Brazil has type C and N sockets, which can be a hassle if you don’t plan in advance. Purchase the correct adapters for your devices beforehand to avoid wasting time buying one upon arrival. Consider investing in a universal travel adapter to cover your needs efficiently.

📳 Brazil and Belo Horizonte SIM Card: You know that being connected is essential, even more so when traveling far from your country. Don’t forget to purchase a Brazilian SIM card to communicate and use the internet. This is an essential tool if you intend to use Google Maps and Uber, for example.

💧 Reusable Water Bottle: Tap water in Belo Horizonte is safe for general use but not for drinking. Be like me. Take your bottle wherever you go. Consider bringing a Water-To-Go Filterable Bottle for convenient access to clean and safe drinking water throughout your day.

💊 Anti-Hangover Meds: Belo Horizonte’s nightlife is a sight to be experienced! So I believe you don’t want to feel bad about it. Therefore, always have anti-hangover medicine in your first aid kit.

👒 Sun Protection: The Brazilian sun is very intense. This Belo Horizonte travel guide recommends that you bring high-SPF sunscreen and hats for greater protection. Because even if it’s just a short period of time in the sun, you might regret it. Trust a person who has had some unfortunate sunburns.

🦟 Bug Repellent: At this point, you already know that Brazil is a tropical country, and depending on where you go, you will have lots of insects and mosquitoes to keep you company. This is a necessary item. Well, nobody likes to feel itchy, or get dengue and other diseases. Consider bringing along an eco-friendly bug repellent to keep those pesky insects at bay and ensure a more pleasant experience during your travels.

🩴 Comfortable Footwear: Remember that there are different terrains, especially because it is a mountainous region. So bring comfortable walking shoes, sneakers, sandals, flip-flops, and anything else you think is necessary.

📄 Travel Documents: Remember all your necessary documents like passport, visa (if required), travel insurance documents, and anything else. Also, have copies of everything in case it is lost or stolen. Avoid frustration so you can enjoy your trip

For the rest, make sure you bring appropriate clothes for the season you are traveling to BH. You can change this list whenever you want, as long as you enjoy every minute of your adventure!

Is it Safe to Rent a Car and Drive in Belo Horizonte Brazil? 

Renting a car and driving in Belo Horizonte can be a safe option, but there are some things you should take into consideration before making your decision.

The main roads in Belo Horizonte and the metropolitan region are in good condition. However, rural roads may not be that good. It is important to always check in advance so that you don’t have any setbacks.

BH is a large city and can have somewhat heavy traffic in certain regions at peak times. So take that into consideration.

You should pay attention to traffic signs, as in Belo Horizonte, the signs are in Portuguese. That’s why it’s important to have some prior knowledge of the language or use a reliable GPS.

You will need your international driving license to drive legally in the country.

Another important point is that we drive on the right side in Brazil. If you choose to rent a car , make sure you have good insurance to be safe. Most rental locations also have them available.

Do I Need to Speak Portuguese to Visit Brazil?

Visiting Belo Horizonte is a wonderful and unique experience. The vast majority of locals will be extremely welcoming and welcoming, regardless of how much you speak the language (Portuguese). But, in situations where English may not be available, a tool like Duolingo can be very useful! Not only Duolingo but there are other platforms that are excellent and easy to use.

But, I believe that learning some basic words and phrases can open doors so you can have even more affectionate contact with local people. Imagine how a simple “Bom Dia” (Good morning) or “Obrigada” (Thank you) in Portuguese can light up someone’s face when they see that you’re making an effort to speak the language, even if it’s just the essentials.

It’s like a small gesture of affection that can make your stay even more pleasant. Don’t worry if you don’t speak the language, as the locals will make you feel very welcome. A word of advice: make the most of this experience!

Here are some great language preparation options for your trip to Brazil:

Learn Basic Portuguese: Using some platforms to learn the basics of the language is very good. I particularly prefer DuoLingo, but there’s also Pimsleur. They have interactive courses to help you gain confidence and speak some Portuguese before you go on your trip.

Use Google Translate App: This app can be a lifesaver when it comes to language barriers. Remember that it works online, so you’ll need a Brazilian SIM card with internet available.

Get a Portuguese Phrasebook : It may sound bad, but consider packing a Portuguese phrasebook , for example, the Lonely Planet Portuguese Phrasebook . It can be useful to have a book to help you understand the local language, even in an emergency situation.

You won’t become fluent, but having some knowledge can be very useful. It will certainly enrich your trip to Belo Horizonte. Locals love it when visitors make an effort, however small it may seem.

Is Brazil Safe for Solo Female Travel? 

Well, Brazil can be a very safe destination! Even more so when it comes specifically to Belo Horizonte. But using common sense is always good on any trip you take. 

There are some safety measures that I consider essential, such as staying in well-rated hotels in safe areas, only booking tours online, avoiding going out alone at night, and being aware of your surroundings.

Also, don’t go out with anything too flashy, expensive, or branded; leave valuables in a safe at your hotel.

I don’t think any Belo Horizonte travel guide will dictate any dress code or behavior, but they should all recommend that you only use reliable transport. But if you prefer to leave later than 8 pm, call an Uber! But remember that you must have mobile internet to use it!

Tell your family and friends all about your trip. Tell them about your plans and when you plan to return to your hotel for the night. A good tip: share your location until you’re safe. 

As I am an experienced traveler, you can trust this Belo Horizonte travel guide, this is the experience of a lifetime! Whether it’s for a weekend or a longer trip, BH awaits your visit warmly!
