A day of learning - The tour was very nice, we went in family and our children were able to get to know and learn a little more about the history of Recife and Olinda. The guide was very pleasant and proved to know very well the places where we passed.

Safe and very good ride! - The tour was very good, especially the visit to Olinda. The guide Genilson was excellent, picked me up at a certain time and was very excited throughout the tour, with simple and interesting explanations about the history of the city and the sights. The only point I think that could improve would be to take a little walk in the streets of Olinda, to better admire the colorful houses (we only saw from the car). In addition, I recommend the tour to everyone who wants to know Olinda and the zero mark of Recife and its surroundings.

Recife and Olinda, cute, but unmissable - Receive s a city with beaches that can be accessed but you can not bathe by the presence of sharks Olinda is cute but is not a must... The best thing to do near Recife is Porto de Galinhas

More history, culture, please. - Recife is a cradle of Brazilian colonial history. I thought there was a lack of informative, historical content. The places visited are good but it would be more interesting if we heard stories that would help us understand more about that exuberant (but decadent...) architecture and the city's golden age. Recife, or Brazil, is not just Carnival...

A great disappointment - I bought 2 tickets yesterday for the full day tour for today spt 14th, 2025 around old recife and olinda. I chose a pick up point that is far away from the flat where we are staying. We booked an uber for 7:15am, on a sunday morning. We got to the point at 7:30. At the pick up point, an hotel un rua bom viagem, nobody had the slightest idea of the tour. We waited until past 8:30. We then called, internationally, to an operator of Martur Viagems e Turismo, who had no idea about our reservation. At 9:12 am they contacted my by whatsap indicating they had found my reservation!!!! Now, at around 10:20am I wrote back to them requesting a full reimbursement of the tour plus the back and forth uber. Up to this moment I have had no response whatsoever.
