Rio's spectacular beauty is unparalleled. A metropolis full of glamour, kissed by the sun, bordered by beautiful, wide beaches and surrounded by mountains.

Today it is the beaches that identify Rio and its culture defined as vibrant, joyful and exotic. Each beach has its own "flavor": from the Great Lady of Copacabana, with its volleyball nets and its outdoor cafes, to the seductive Ipanema; from São Conrado to the modern and expensive Barra da Tijuca.

Flight to Salvador (not included)

Cradle of sugar cultivation in its first hundred years, the city owes its economic development to the search for gold and diamonds from the mines in the interior of the country. After Lisbon, Salvador was the second city of the Portuguese empire, distinguished by its numerous churches overflowing with gold and its magnificent colonial buildings and its festivals.

Capital of the State of Bahia, Salvador is today the most African city in Brazil. Here the syncretism between Catholicism and African rituals imported by ancient slaves is expressed in festivals, processions, music and cuisine. It is impossible to resist the temptations that this city offers: a tropical environment and a culture rich in traditions and festivals.

Arrival at the airport and transfer to the city center.

Lunch at the Uaua restaurant: you will taste the famous moqueca, a typical specialty of the Bahia State, prepared with fish, coconut milk and palm oil.

Salvador is divided into two parts: Cidade Baixa and Cidade Alta – developed at the base and on the top of a hill of about 100 meters. Many narrow streets, trams and elevators connect the two parts.

Beginning of the visit to the Upper Town, the ancient city, which houses the major monuments where it is possible to admire the richness of its Baroque architecture, a permanent source of discovery. The richness of Salvador's religious past is why today the city is called "the city of 365 Churches". Guided tour of the upper city, where visitors will have the opportunity to visit the Plaza de Pelourinho, the place where slaves were punished in ancient times and which today is the place with the largest number of examples of colonial architecture and the growing cultural renaissance such as the Church of Nosso Senhor de Bomfin and the church of San Francesco.
