I can see wanting Visas for entrance to the USA so they can check people out. But just keep the fees cheaper....then the reciprocity fees would also be cheaper.

We are losing billions each year in tourist $$$ and that is a shame.

I've met so many people in Costa Rica who have trouble getting a visa and say to me something like: "I'm sure you have a wonderful country, but all I want to do is take my family to Disney World. We're not going to remain there."

Hello,

I'm a US citizen, considering a cruise from Rio to Buenos Aires in 2013. The ship will stop each day in various port cities along the coast.

This will be my first visit to South America. Will I need the visas discussed here for Brazil or Argentina?

Thanks

Ray

In this case, yes to Brazil (it's a visa you must get in advance), no to Argentina (it's a fee you pay only if you fly INTO Buenos Aires).
