This tour will be full day, leaving the hotels in the morning and returning in the late afternoon. Located 167 km from Fortaleza, considered one of the most exotic, paradisiacal, rustic and primitive of the Ceará coast. Discovered by tourists from various parts of Brazil and abroad, looking for mystical and high-spirited places. Canoa (as it is called by the natives), has a main street where it gathers all the infrastructure of the place, and that the spirit of Ceará's good mood was called 'broadway', with inns, bars and restaurants. Going down the cliffs, towards the beach, our visitors will find several options of beach huts (small restaurants) that serve the most varied seafood dishes. It is also possible to make the option of buggy ride through the dunes in order to get to know the region better or to sail in a typical raft (OPTIONAL). Canoa Quebrada Beach is symbolized by the famous half moon and star

We had a nice day at the Quebrada and we enjoyed the relaxed day. You can stay at the beach or do several activities. We took the Buggy ride in the dunes and had a lot of fun. They also offer Quad rides or boat tours even though the boats are super tiny. Minor negative: it's a long ride in the bus from Fortaleza and everyone speaks only Portuguese.

Wonderful experience. I Have never thought there would be so many beautiful places in Ceara. Me and my family are in love and will definitely come back. Vitorino definitely helped us on the way through Ceara. They're 10 out of 10.

Miriam was an amazing guide for the day. Very enthusiastic, lively, and knowledgeable about Ceara and Canoa Quebrada. The team is also organized and punctual. I would highly recommend anyone booking this day trip with this company!

The only thing I feel dissatisfied is that the trip is actually Portuguese though it was written bilingual when I booked. The guide is nice. He found a English-speaking person right at the restaurant, but I miss all the introductions along the bus drive. For the future traveler, it is necessary to know that the activities (such as dune buggy, boating, etc) are optional extra. The trip fee you see here basically just include round bus. The buggy drive cost around 70, and Jangada is 30 just in case you want to know.. The activities are arranged a little unorganized. Dune buggy is fun! It lasts whole morning. You will get stop in different spots to take picture, have some rest or just explore the area yourself. Around 12, you back resort. You can choose to attend other activities or enjoy beach yourself. I chose jangada at first, but nobody came to call, so I didn’t know where to meet and when to start.

Cool place to spend the day. We did the optional buggy ride and had a blast. But honestly you can do without….whatever you feel at the moment. The beach club we got to spent the rest of the day chilling at was fun. Great people and even better food. This place is beautiful and worth the visit.

This was more just round trip transport from Fortaleza to canoe quebrado. However they fulfilled their mission 100% and this guide also spoke English and tried to include me in with the other 8 Brazilian guests on the trip. They basically drop you off at a higher end resort for 5 1/2 hours which gives you access to the beach, a pool and dining/drinking on the beach. Other activities are available for purchase once you get there such as dune buggy, kite surfing etc. Vitorino was on time, reliable and safe. Recommend 100% and would use again.

Excellent! The company represented by Veruska was great! Thanks for the lovely day, completely recommended! Tomorrow I’m going for the third day in a row with the same company! People, just go for it.

We went a couple of days to visit Fortaleza, and we did three tours with Vitorino. First we went to the Canoa Quebrada tour, second we went to Cumbuco, and last but not least we did the tour to Mundaú and Flecheiras. All the trips were well organised and the guides are always in for joke as well. The guide was also always availaible for responding extra questions. Some pointers which could be better: -The trip pricing is without the optional rides. However it would be great if it is mentioned in the brochure regarding the cost of the optional tours. - The barraca Maré Alta is great and has good food, however unfortunately the sound from the neighbour is flooding the sound. - When you are welcomed in the bus, you are told that a lot of things are not allowed such as drinking anything else than water in the bus, and even eating something. Finally for tours to beaches I would suggest having busses with interiors ready to accept wet/moist clothing. Since it does not make sense to insist on not entering with wet/moist clothes in the bus. When you are visiting Fortaleza you must seriously consider a tour with Vitorino. You will not regret selecting a tour.

Vitorino provided us with an incredible experience in the fortress, we made 5 tours with the agency and were wonderful, the guides are extremely friendly and helpful, the guide Clesiana made our tour even more magical with his astral high, Junior was also very adorable with his sympathy. Gratitude, a thousand-note agency, with a wonderful and super-trained team, who loves what they do. 👏🏻 👍
