About this activity

This Salvador tour offers an immersion in the culture, history and beauty of the Bavarian capital, making it an unforgettable experience for those who visit the city.

We depart from the hotels of Salvador towards the Forte Santo Antônio da Barra, built in 1536 and which, in 1698, won the Farol da Barra, operating to this day.

We will pass the Corredor da Vitória, Largo do Campo Grande and Avenida 7 de Setembro, until we begin our walking tour through Pelourinho.

The first stop is the Municipal Square, with a panoramic view of Downtown, including the Lacerda Elevator, the Porto and the Model Market.

We followed by Plaza da Sé, where are the ruins of the first Basilica of Brazil and the Archiepiscopal Palace. We continue towards Largo do Pelourinho, visiting the Church of Rosario dos Negros and the Casa de Jorge Amado Foundation.

We close the tour at the Church and Convent of San Francisco, a jewel of the Brazilian Baroque (tax of R$ 10,00)
