Serviço fantástico e seguro - It was our first time visiting Brazil from Europe so we were a bit unsure of renting a car due to safety issues so we opted for the transfers and city tours with Uptranslado. We did the city tour with Roberto and we absolutely loved it! He wa very nice and knowledgable of Recife and all of its customs, traditions and history. All the other staff that did our transfers were also all very professional and nice and we had a fantastic and safe time visiting Recife, Porto de Galinhas and Maragogi. Would definitely book our vacations with Uptranslado again.
