サルバドールの民間人類都市ツアー

Poor communication from the business owner about where the pickup would be when I asked to confirm, resulting in missing the tour. No response to my messages asking for clarity and then I received an email asking me to rate the tour as if it had been completed already. No one called my phone to announce that the driver had arrived to my address. I asked if I could arrange my own transportation to meet at the tour starting point since I was only a few minutes behind. They asked for $150 more in order for me to do that or I could not attend. There is a refusal to offer even a partial refund and now I will have to get my refund via the bank.

Here is what you get with this: A tour of Salvador that centers on African/Black experience, history, and culture, conducted by a team of passionate locals who keep it both informative and engaging. Highly recommended. Our tour guide, Nilson, was great — he mixed anecdotes, historical background, observation, and humor with, making the experience fun and fulfilling. It is long, so come prepared with what you need, but the air-conditioned car is never far away.

Our tour guide, Vagner, was amazing! He spoke English well. This tour was definitely my favorite, or at the very least, second favorite tour of our one-week Brazil trip. We visited different museums and Vagner helped explain the history and culture behind many of what we saw. (If you use google translate and the camera option in this app, you can also translate Portuguese words/menus/descriptions in museums from Portuguese to your language). I highly do NOT recommend keeping your phone in your hand or holding it up, and was thankful Vagner explained things so well with so much knowledge. I felt like we saw the entire city with this tour. We went into favela-like areas, went into a vodun worship area, met the doctor, who invited us for lunch. We went to all the tourist hot spots. We went to the large market, saw livestock being sold, meat being butchered, spices, voodoo dolls, and so much more. This tour is definitely a MUST if you want to explore the deep culture of Salvador in a safe way with a knowledgeable tour guide and driver.

Morro de São Paulo, wonderful beach, finny restaurant, good food, affordable price and well served, on the 2nd beach, made a hit and back by lc breeze

Where do I start? This tour changed my life and the trajectory of my coaching business. By learning about the history and the beginning of Salvador and walking through paths that were once slave auction spaces, I feel I am forever changed by the honesty, opennessndor, and generosity of Marcos. He even went out of his way to ensure I had vegan options. This tour covers many spaces in Salvador, but Marcos gives the true history and the background of how this history affects Bahia today. Not one to miss!

Great tour. Very knowledgeable guide who took the time to explain the intricate details of the Afro influence in the early days in Portuguese occupation.

We actually went on the Salvador: African Heritage & Acarajé Tasting 4-Hour Tour This Tour and History lesson was extremely fulfilling. I learned soooo much about who I am as an African descendant. Marcos was informative helpful and just a great host. Our group of 3 got exactly what we were seeking; an education on the our African Heritage. Obrigado... Este passeio foi fantastico !

Salvador during the pandemic We were concerned about the time we lived with everything, after a conversation with Marcos everything became calm. We hired all private services and was nothing more than spectacular new cars and exceptional guides, entrance to special places or memorable moments Salvador is a unique city beyond history, has a special soul. That nps leaves so much will that it seems like we're visiting relatives. Thank you for everything.

We booked a last minute tour with Vagner and Junior(driver). What a great experience! And that’s exactly what it was- an experience of Brazilian lifestyle and history! We are returning to Salvador in a few months with friends and we are definitely going to book a tour so our friends can really experience the essence of Salvador. Thank you!

We did the anthropological tour with my husband, daughter and boyfriend. The guide was Ronaldo, it was a very good experience, the tour very interesting and complete. What I liked most was the San Joaquin market. Ronaldo was very friendly, attentive, always aware of what we needed or offering us something to be better, more comfortable. At the market he took the trouble to buy a water to clean the fruit and make us taste what we did not know! Of course I explain perfectly what we visited and answer all the questions. A genius!!! Thank you infinite Ronaldo.
