Reviews: Regular Tour to Forte Beach - Leaving Salvador by Bahia Top Turismo
Guest User2024-03-08
The trip itself was good, and Rodriguez is an energetic guide, who clearly enjoys his job. Thank you... The organization of the trip, could be improved. The pick up time, at my hotel was identified as 07:00. Since I always endeavour to be on time, I was out front at 06:55. As I waited outside and saw 2 tour vans go by, I thought this is the one...no such luck, then 2 school buses go by. At 07:25 I text to ask what the delay is and I was informed that I needed to walk down to the main street and along to a bus stop, as the road I am on is too small. Clearly it is not given the traffic I saw go by. This 10 minute walk, wasn't such a big deal because I am fit - were I not it could have been an issue - I also didn't argue as my street is a one way and it would have added time to the route. I was finally picked up at 07:45 and we then we spent the next 45 ish minutes driving to the other hotels to collect the other participants. Forte Beach was timed well for me as I only wanted to do the Tamar Project and not the snorkeling or dune buggy and so I shopped. Lunch at Guarajuba Beach was excellent and the beach beautiful with plenty of time to enjoy both! The return trip also took a long time because of the additional time driving to everyone's hotels to drop them off. This added an hour, since I was 2nd last. Further, the same excuse about the road being to narrow was given and I was dropped off at the corner and had to walk up and since I spent most of the day sitting I didn't argue...Please do not tell me to be ready at 07:00 and make me wait. ~Addendum a huge dump truck went by this morning and actually backed into a construction site with no issues.
Reviews: Tour Praia do Forte and Guarajuba, Leaving Salvador-Bahia.

The experience was great. The hotel pickup was very convenient and both the driver and the guide Thiago were very nice, friendly and respectful and with great content on the history and location. The morning time at Praia do forte was a bit rushed (I decided to do both snorkeling and Tamar project), but if only one is chosen then it would have been more relaxed. The snorkeling activity was okay, not entirely happy with the pictures I was sent and they should perhaps organise it better because other people on the way kept scaring all the fish when I was had my pictures taken. The Tamar project was very nice with a 40 min guided tour. Praia de Guarajuba was beautiful and we spend there about 3h. The facilities were very nice and pleasant too (see pictures added).
Reviews: From Salvador: Schooner Tour to Frades Islands and Itaparica
Guest User2025-12-12
The tour itself is well organized. It's just that the places aren't anything special. The boat has a show, but there's a cover charge (optional). Ilha dos Frades is pretty, but nothing out of the ordinary. Ilha de Itaparica has absolutely nothing except a restaurant. There's nothing to do and the food is quite expensive. I don't recommend going to Itaparica.
Reviews: Private Full-Day African Oriented Salvador Upper & Lower City
Guest User2024-09-01
I formative trip about the city, some key people who founded it, architecture and important buildings. There is however much more to see and you will be left with tips where to go on yoir own. You gonna also.learn about afro-brazilian parts and may visit few shops & restaurants where you experience local cusine and find local products. If you already know something about city or Brazil the trip may be tailored to your needs.

The tour was really well organized, with a few short drives. Our guide Vincent was very kind, he spoke perfect French and had a lot of historical knowledge, the tour was fascinating, we saw and learned a lot in one afternoon. Salvador is really a beautiful city, I recommend this tour. A big thank you!
Reviews: Schooner Tour to Frades Islands and Itaparica, Leaving Salvador - Bahia
Guest User2024-06-15
Our day started cloudy and with rain! Almost everyone on board wired swimsuits and coverup or board shorts but the rain coming into side of boats was a bit of a nuisance even though they had plastic tarps brought down to help guests not get wet, rains drain onto seats. There was a group of Brazilian musicians on board which made the trip delightful but beware they are independent band that expect “donations” of at least R$25 and we didn’t have any cash /reais with us and offered R$5 ready which is nothing but they rejected that, maybe they got offended but we didn’t gave PIX which is similar to Venmo in the states! Oh well 🤷🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️🥱 Once we arrive at first stop island called “Ilha dos Frades” Nice calm beach with clear warm water to bath in. The ocean water was very shallow and allowed us to go far into ocean which was cool. For worn all there will be local vendors selling drinks and if you’re an American with dollars every item is pretty inexpensive. In fact everything in Brazil is very inexpensive and your dollars go along way! We left that island to Itaparica island to have lunch. It cost us $15/pp (R$75/pp) and lunch although visually looked good it was not tasty. Bahia is known for their fish dishes but unfortunately at this location the fish had bones and smelled fishy could not eat it. Ended up sticking with chicken stroganoff with white rice was good; beef was so tough, and beans were good but that it. I hate that we were forced to go there instead of another place.
