A really good tour. Got to see so many interesting places and enjoyed the narrative of all the historical buildings, the history of the city and country. Monica was a really knowledgeable guide and made it extremely interesting. She has great interpersonal skills and knows how much info to give without overload. The transport was good. I do recommend this tour if you want a better insight to Salvador and Brazil

Excellent Way to Discover Salvador

This private city tour was a perfect introduction to Salvador’s history and culture. Very knowledgeable guide, well-paced itinerary, and great insights into Pelourinho and key landmarks. Lunch was delicious and well organized. Highly recommended for anyone wanting a deeper understanding of the city in one day and explore the whole city at once.

Must-do tour for newcomers to Salvador to get your bearings and see it all in one day.

I had the most incredible tour with Wandelay. He was attentive, extremely knowledgeable about Brazilian and Salvadorian history, and walked me through the backstory of every point of the tour in great detail. I had a wonderful time because of him and felt I saw every piece of Salvador. Also the transportation and communication were seamless.
