For You Single Men.. October 11, 2008

This latest offering from Lonely Planet is a good resource for the mundane tourist stuff. But if you want to explore the sultry side of Rio and hook-up with the world's sexiest women, I recommend the Lusty Traveler series by Wiley Cooper. He covers all the details you won't find in mainstream travel guides such as where to meet women, negotiating rates, and even lists guest-friendly hotels.Lusty Traveler: The Complete Sex Tourism Guide of Erotic Vacations for Men, Rio De Janeiro

They've written so many of these guides that they are becoming a tad generic on their advice. I bought this and found a lot of information outdated to inaccurate when I arrived. However, if you're not planning on going to Rio right away, and find yourself very curious about this great city, I would definitely recommend it. It is very interesting, and completely different to western culture. If you're young and into the singles scene, or on business like I was and want more of a sure thing with brazilian women, I would recommend adding with this title The Hedonist: World Sex Guide - Single Male Erotic Vacations in Rio, Costa Rica, Thailand, Carribean and much more
Side note. There are very specific visas, with very specific requirements that you have to have to go there.

I found a lot of good information on places to go within Rio. I recommend using a combination of this book and taxis to do your sightseeing instead of hopping a tour bus.
