Visita a la ciudad de Jardineira

The ride can be good or bad depending on your goal. For us, who were in the car and had the freedom to move around the city, maybe it would have been better to hire a private guide and make the script on our own. The gardening tour is fun, lively and provides a different experience, but, in relation to historical knowledge, leaves much to be desired. Although there were guides, the explanations were much more focused on other guidelines than on the history of Ouro Preto and, mostly, the churches. Within them, we lack more detailed explanations about the construction, the works, the architectural elements and the history of each place. It was precisely this kind of knowledge that we hoped to acquire with the tour. We also felt that, throughout the course, there was a constant attempt to direct the group to some consumption: coffee at a certain place, shopping at one of the stops and, at the end, lunch. On lunch, worth an important point: it happens practically at the penultimate stop. The value was R$70 per person and, frankly, we would like to have chosen another place to eat. As the gardener returns to the starting point after that stop, if we knew about it, we would probably have chosen not to have lunch with the group and would have taken advantage of seeing another restaurant. The mine, which is also part of the script, was another point that did not surprise us. We paid R$ 80 per person for a visit that lasted about 20 minutes. For value and duration, we expected a more interesting experience. Overall, we found the tour fun and valid for those looking for convenience and an overview of the city in a short time, but, if you only have one day in Ouro Preto and your main goal is to get to know the history and better understand the city, maybe it is more interesting to hire a local guide and put together a personalized route. Thus, you can devote more time to the places that really arouse your interest and better enjoy the experience.

A fantastic experience! I would like to highlight the professionalism of the guide Vavá, who was extremely polite and led the script with excellent explanations.

The guide Bruno dominates history and in a playful way we love the history of this incredible city that is black gold not forgetting the driver eliezer who with mastery led us along the slopes of the city, super recommend

Very good walk with great experience.

Vavá, excellent guide, clear explanation, knowledge and kindness. The driver Tiago did very well in driving.

I liked the cultural script very much, except for the Veloso mine that gave me claustrophobia and I had to leave. I also didn't like the restaurant that we stopped for lunch (expensive and ungrateful food)

Of the 3 churches provided, one was not shown in its interior, guide simply followed with another group and left us at the gardener who in turn left us 3 blocks from the church point, to go on foot, where would be the point of arrival. Instead he took us to a souvenir store, where he received commission on sales, i.e. he used the time for unwanted sales and stopped showing important tourist spot.

Very good walk. I liked the experience

Guide and drivers very attentive and the photographer was very friendly l. Recommended

The tour was very good, lasted from 9hs to 15hs and our guide (Thor) was exceptional. You had two more stops than mentioned, one for shopping and one for lunch at a already determined location. I made another tour in the Jeje Mine that I found better, with a more comprehensive historical explanation and considering that it costs R$ 80.00 per person, if you have time, I suggest that you take the mine tour separately from Jardineira.
