Hi Alejandro
I have booked the Plaza Sao Rafael hotel in the centro district very close to the river.
Is this a safe area?
Thanks

Well Nate, is downtown, always better by day but at night I think is safe too, don't worry. I stayed in Hotel Embaixador last times that is, more or less, the same area.
It's a very nice city, I think is the most "european" city of Brazil.
Enjoy!
And Montevideo? Don't you come to the show here? It's very nice too.
There are tickets available.
Cheers
Alejandro

This hotel is located very near to where I live, and that area it's not very safe at night. You can take a walk on other areas (Moinhos de Vento and Cidade Baixa), but take care when coming back to the hotel, because it's not safe to take a walk there at night.

Thanks for the advice Cristiano
I will talk with my friend who I am coming to Brazil with maybe we will look at booking a different hotel in a more safe area or maybe just take taxis from the hotel and back at the night time.
Thanks
Nate

Hi, aralla!
I wouldn't say it's impossible to get one ticket for Porto Alegre, but these are possibly the most sought-after tickets in Brazil. There's not too much people selling them and most of the time they're asking scandalous prices. Just as an example, a premium ticket which has a face value of approx. US$ 300.00 is being offered for the double of that price or more than that. If by any chance I hear or know somebody who has one ticket for a fair price (ie = face value) I'll let you know.
