Nova Trento and Brusque - Leaving Balneário Camboriú, I took this route. In Nova Trento we were able to see the characteristic houses and visited the Sanctuary of Madre Paulina. After lunch, we went to Brusque to shop at a commercial center. Beautiful cities. It's worth visiting!

Good sightseeing tour. But don't get your hopes up - Tour for tourists. The company's professionals are great and made it a great trip. Unlike the tour to the European Valley, whose cities have lost part of their historical identity, this tour is for those who like churches and shopping. A visit to the shoe store in São João Batista is relatively unnecessary. Then visits to the churches in Nova Trento are interesting - I'm Protestant, but visits to Catholic churches don't compromise in terms of tourism and historical aspects. The Italian cantina is cool, but if you are Italian, the son of an Italian or come from São Paulo, don't expect more than simple "pay a fixed price and eat what you can" style food, but you won't be surprised. The visit to the wine factory is interesting for the manufacturing and subsequent tasting aspects. Brusque is a busier city and we were taken to the Fashion Fair (FIP) - interesting for those who are tourists from cities without large shopping centers, but not so much for those from São Paulo or Rio, for example. My criticism is not the company that does the tour because it does its part (and very well), but the need for the cities visited to plan and invest better in their tourism aspects without thinking that just because they have one type of origin or one or another traditional thing, this will keep the tourism wheel active. Better care in historical aspects, in the creation of tourist paths, commerce, food places and the like will bring more tourists who will spend more.

It could just be Nova Trento - The trip is worth it just for the attractions of Nova Trento, such as Morro da Cruz and the Sanctuary of Sta Paulina, which has beautiful architecture. In Brusque, we only made one stop at a place full of knitwear stores, for shopping. However, I didn't find anything that was really worth it, and we missed the opportunity to see another attraction in the city.

Not worth the trip - On every tour, what is worth visiting is the winery and the chocolate shop. Visit to a shoe store with no news and high prices, empty seats in churches with no one to introduce you, lunch at Nona Lourdes also weak in Italian only 3 types of pasta and other dishes as in any other self-service, at FIP two hours to buy products at shopping mall prices with no new features, very expensive, they promise 9 hours of sightseeing in reality it is 11 hours.
