Many experiences - The guide Rosângela is a love and knows the city a lot, introduced us to the main tourist spots of the city and commented on those we couldn't stop. We love the ride, it's my second with the Enterprise. The driver also Tarcísio a dear, took us safely and drives very well, unlike the local drivers -the vast majority-of Salvador who are quite reckless. I only have one complaint: the lunch, in the restaurant Mariposa no Pelourinho that we stopped left much to be desired, cold rice, almost raw meat, fried potato soaked with oil and very expensive for the Service.

Good choice for half a day - It is a half-day tour so you do not enter anywhere. The tour shows the main features of downtown Salvador. What I would have liked is to have time to visit the shops I wanted in Pelourinho but they only let make two stops: one at the Pierim store where it is expensive but supposedly the only place they let use the bathroom for free. The second is another store for us to buy as many complain that they do not let us into other stores. The tour I chose in Spanish but ended up being in Portuguese but I still understand it well. The guide was Batira and he did excellent.

Meeting Salvador - I made the City tour of Salvador with Zinho and it was excellent. Very attentive, polite, cheerful with everyone who is in your company and has excellent knowledge of what it presents. Note 1000 for him. There are four other friends with me who also liked Zinho very much.

Zinho, gratitude! - Salvador alone is already charming, but when the city is unraveled by someone with such dedication and passion as Zinho, the tour becomes magical and unforgettable! That was my experience. Congratulations and thanks Zinho for all dedication, knowledge, care and generosity! Zinho, I'll take you to the heart ❤️

We hired the tour and they didn't have us scheduled. - Hello we hired the tour a day earlier, and in Spanish and we were told that they would come by us to the hotel from 8 to 9 We were ready from that time and since it was 9 and they were not arriving we communicated by phone and were told that they had no schedule. They solved it by sending us with another group but the guide did not speak Spanish. They offered to take us to the hotel and schedule for another day but we didn't have another day to do that excursion. So we did the first part in Portuguese understanding little. Already in Pelourinho we were located with another guide who spoke a little Spanish and cared a lot to make us take advantage of the ride
