Follow England: World Cup 2014


We travelled Brazil for 2 months travelling to some of the host cities creating Social Media content and blogging about the things to do in each city if you only have a short time there 

Firstly we travelled to the cities where England will play (maybe not Manaus)

England will play in the group stages:

14th June: England v Italy (Manaus) 
19th June: England v Uruguay (Sao Paulo)
24th June: England v Costa Rica (Belo Horizonte)



Manaus

The city is in the middle of the Amazon and has a population of nearly 2 million people. If you do plan to travel to Manaus it will sure be an experience but because of its location and distance from anywhere else flying is your only option. Manaus is a 5 hour flight from Sao Paulo and in another time zone! not to mention the tropical heat.


Sao Paulo

This city is just big! Latin Americas biggest city with a population of around 25 Million . On the surface there is little to see but if you scratch the surface you will find great nightlife and culture worth experiencing plus the best place to fly into for your Brazil World Cup trip.

Belo Horizonte 

As Brazil is so huge Belo Horizonte is actually a great next city to go to as its only (and I say only) an 8 hour bus journey from Sao Paulo or a 1 hour flight. Belo isn't on the coast but is a student city that has the highest number of bars in Brazil so expect a great night out.

Rio

Any trip to Brazil wouldn't be complete without a trip to the beach and if England finish 2nd in the group we will play our next game in the Maracana!

If we finish top we will need to head to Recife which would be another long flight so consider Rio as a great place to even watch a game on the big screen even if we are not playing in it :(
