This full-day adventure will allow you to enjoy both the magnificent panoramic views Salvador offers, as well as discover its rich history, extraordinary architecture, and dynamic culture, result of the blend of Portuguese, African and Indigenous people. We will see the city from different angles, discovering the Lower City, with its bucolic interior atmosphere, around the calm waters of the All Saints Bay, and continuing to the tip of the Itapagipe Peninsula, the extreme west part of Salvador, and then the Upper City with its Historic Center – the cradle of our city’s history.

This is a great way to get a local's perspective into the culture and history of the city. Carlos was a great host, picking me up and dropping off at my hotel and driving me to all the key areas of interest in a clean and comfortable vehicle while providing rich insights to the area.

Both or driver (please forgive for not remembering his name), and Carlos were amazing! The bus was top tier and the ride very smooth. They were friendly, helpful, and extremely knowledgeable. Their pride in this wonderful city shined, and every stop/ site was chosen with thought and care. Thank you for a grand adventure!

Carlos was absolutely amazing. He picked us up at our Airbnb in a comfortable vehicle, and gave us the best city tour we could’ve asked for. He is super knowledgeable and personable. Native to Salvador he created a truly spectacular experience, hitting all the points in the city. He catered to us perfectly, and made it a day to remember. Sending you a huge thank you from Maui. Don’t hesitate to book with him.

Carlos was a fantastic tour guide. He had great in-depth knowledge of Salvador and helped us understand context around architecture, culture, food and customs. We were traveling as a group of five with two children ages 9 and 11, and an 86 year old grandpa. Carlos was able to make the tour enjoyable for all. I would highly recommend hiring him as a guide in Salvador!

This is a fabulous trip and Eduardo is an extremely knowledgeable guide. He picked us up from our hotel and drove us all around the key highlights of Salvador as well as a number of places which we would never have found. His knowledge of the area and the history helped make the day and his recommendation for lunch was outstanding. My only wish is that we had done this trip as soon as we arrived as it gave us a great idea of places to revisit and explore further. Top trip and top guide.

I highly recommend this tour. I travel a lot in Carlos is one of the best tour guides I’ve ever had. He provided a detailed description of Salvador past and present. The old city is filled with history and culture.

I am a solo traveller and had thoroughly enjoyed Carlos tour. He is very patience and knowledgeable. He gave me tips where to go (and not to go) by myself. He presented himself very well, professional and his car is super clean (compared to mine!). Thank you for buying good Brazilian coffee. I will see you in the future visits to Salvador!
