Brazil is a very large and diverse country which makes planning where to go more difficult, here we'll look at some of the best places to visit in Brazil.

Probably the most famous city in Brazil is Rio de Janeiro, meaning the River of January in English. Rio was the capital of Brazil from 1763 - 1960 and is now the most visited city in Brazil. When visiting Rio there are some must see places to go, firstly the beaches, with Copacabana and Ipanema being the most famous. Another must see place is Christ the Redeemer "Christo Redentor" which is a statue of Jesus on top of a mountain which can be seen from practically the whole city, finally the other must see place in Rio is Sugar Loaf mountain "Pao de Acucar". Sugar Loaf is a peak in a mountain where it's possible to look over the whole city, with cable cars taking you to the summit. Rio has the most famous carnival in Brazil and great history when it comes to music having been the place where Samba and Bossa Nova was invented.

The largest city in the Brazil is Sao Paulo, with over 10 million in habitants. Sao Paulo is known as the most cosmopolitan city in Brazil; it has a large number of ethnic minority communities which has lead to it being seen as having the best range and quality of restaurants in Brazil. As well as being known for its food, it's also well known for its museums such as the Museu Paulista do Ipiranga, the gothic Metropolitan Se Cathedral and the Sao Paulo Museum of Art. Sao Paulo also has the most successful Brazilian football team in Sao Paulo FC, holding the most national and international titles of any Brazilian club.

Finally another amazing city to visit in Brazil is Salvador, which is one of the most beautiful cities in the world; it's located in the North East of Brazil and is the capital of the state of Bahia. It is known as being the most easygoing city in the Brazil and is famous for street parties and the carnival. Over 80% of the population in Salvador has Black African ancestry which has an effect of the food and music in Salvador. Salvador is the city to visit if you are looking for beautiful beaches and none stop partying.

Whichever city it is that you visit in Brazil you need to make sure you have a pair of Brazil Havaianas, a bikini and that you are looking to have a party.

Has anyone used Travel Republic.co.uk?

I am thinking of booking a last minute holiday to Floirida with them as they have realy good offers but I'm just wondering if they're cheap for a certain reason? The hotel is nice and the flights are what we want.

I have booked with Travel Republic a few times and up to now have been very pleased with them. However a recent booking with them has a problem and trying to get them to do something about it is proving very difficult. First you are on hold for half an hour to be told they will get back to you I am still waiting nearly 2 weeks later and i have even written a letter and several more trys on the phone. It seems like they are fine until something goes wrong then nobody wants to help you.

Cheap flights to the Dominican Republic from Toronto?

I go to the Dominican Republic many times a year but this summer I am finding it difficult to find a reasonable price. Does anyone know of any travel agencies that specialize in the dominican republic or the caribbean that is located in Ontario Canada? More specifically around the GTA. Also I am just looking for a flight not a package to puerto plata in July.
Thanks,
Anita

I live in Toronto as well and I've used 4 websites to compare prices especially when it comes to flights.

Dominican Republic - The Caribbean Coast $8.99 Starting just beyond the hustle and bustle of Santo Domingo, and continuing east almost all the way to the southeastern tip of the island, lies what most visitors come to the island for - a taste of the idyllic Caribbean. Referred to locally as the Costa Caribe (Caribbean Coast), the southeast coast of Hispaniola, with its sparkling white sand and translucent, tranquil waters, boasts a number of the Dominican Republic's top-rated beaches. Two of the best are the world-renowned Boca Chica and the less celebrated - though no less beautiful - Bayahibe. Also on the south side are several prime dive spots, including a spectacular coral reef off a small island and a number of underwater caves that have become increasingly popular with extreme divers in recent years. Baseball fans often like to make pilgrimages to the city of San Pedro de Macorís, which has produced a remarkable number of Major League stars. But perhaps the crowning glory of the Caribbean Coast is the Parque Nacional del Este, a 172-square-mile habitat for bird and plant life. The park is also the site of fascinating cave complexes housing Taino drawings that depict historical events between the indigenous population and the early conquistadors.

Package holiday to Pompei?

I want to go to pompei but can only get there by booking the plan myself, using public transport and booking won hotel. it works out very very expensive.

Get a flight to Naples, book it online via the airline in question, shop around for the cheapest one.

Then decide where you actually want to stay. We stayed in Naples and it was just great, we stayed at what turned out to be a gorgeous Bed & Breakfast quite near the railway station in Naples, the name of it was Nolana. You could also stay in the town of Sorrento, or in any of the places along the coast around Naples Bay. We booked our accommodation via www.hostelworld.com.

There is a train that runs between Naples and Sorrento called the Circumvesuviano, and it's very cheap and stops at Pompeii. You might be able to get accommodation close to Pompeii, but I imagine it will be very expensive.

Ever been stuck in a lift ?

I was thinking about the hotel lift at an Holiday Inn last month.
Stationary with some folks that had no English for a few minutes, so my suggestion of a game of Scrabble went down poorly.

Yes. I was once stuck in a huge lift at Heathrow with about 20 others. We rang the alarm but there seemed to be no response. Then someone who seemed to have knowledge of how the thing worked managed to get it to go back to where we'd started. We all got out and lugged our luggage up two flights of stairs instead.

Travel from Australia to Canada. Looking for good websites to compare best flights.?

Basically looking for any advice since I have never travelled internationally before. I am looking to travel from Australia to Canada at the end of November to early December. I need help with finding the best price on flights. Websites etc. I am looking for a website where I can compare many flights leaving from different cities on the east coast. I am also wondering if it is better to wait until last minute before bookings since there may be last minute discounts. Thanks for any help.

I know it can be confusing when there are a million different comparison sites, but after years of flying, I've found that http://www.Orbitz.com seems to consistently offer the lowest rates compared to the other comparison sites. For example, in March, I flew from Melbourne, Australia, to Orlando, Florida, USA, for about $350 with United Airlines! None of the other comparison sites offered me that same deal.

That said, you should check at least half a dozen comparison sites as well as a few of the airline's sites (sometimes you can find deals directly and they don't show up in comparison sites).

So here's what I recommend to you to find the best deal:
1. Go to http://www.bookingbuddy.com, which will save you from retyping information into all of your searches, and from there try Orbitz, Expedia and maybe Priceline and a few other comparison sites listed there. To be honest with you, after years of using Booking Buddy, Orbitz and Expedia are the only ones I've found helpful.

2. Visit the direct Web sites for some of the airlines. Remember that the comparison sites don't always offer the same deals, and discount airlines usually aren't listed on the comparison sites at all. You didn't mention what cities you were flying from or into, which would have helped, but start with:

http://www.qantas.com.au (a few days ago I noticed that they have great deals going to the US right now, so you may be able to get a connection to Canada for a decent rate)

http://www.virginblue.com.au (I used to fly them all the time when I was in Australia, and they often offer cheap flights to LA, so you could possibly get a connection with another airline from there. I've never found them listed on a comparison site.)

http://www.aircanada.com/

You may want to check out some of the direct Web sites for some of the other major US airlines like American Airlines, United, Delta, as I believe they all fly from Australia to Canada (usually via US). I hope this helps. I know it's not an easy answer. If you want the best deal you have to take time to do research and use the comparison sites, but don't depend on them. It's definitely worth taking the extra time to save potentially hundreds of dollars. Have a great trip to Canada!

The Last Minute (DVD) $22.27 LAST MINUTE is a dark comedy that exudes a well-defined feeling of outlandish exaggeration and startling truth in one smoothly paced motion. Directed by Stephen Norrington (BLADE) and set in London, it is the story of Billy Byrne (Max Beesley), a self-obsessed up-and-coming star. Working as an artist, Billy is on the verge of fame, with his girlfriend and his friends firmly behind him. However, when his moment of glory comes to an abrupt end, Byrne loses everything. Depressed and alone, he finds himself sinking into the spiraling depths of the London underworld, engulfed by a shady ring of crime in a network of tunnels underneath an old theater. Billy`s decisions along the way are influenced by a street-smart young girl, Anna (Emily Corrie in her feature film debut), and the horridly tainted leader of a gang of child thieves played by stage and screen actor Tom Bell. Adding to the cast, accomplished actor Jason Isaacs (THE PATRIOT, WINDTALKERS) puts forth a violent charisma as the film`s quirky villain, who has a propensity for busting into song. Fresh cinematography and Norrington`s hip personal style add to this satirical display of London`s highest and lowest lifestyles. THE LAST MINUTE is a small budget film that can easily contend with Hollywood`s finest productions.
