Day 2
AFRICAN-ORIENTED CITY TOUR

Start at Farol da Barra, where Salvador was founded in 1549, then drive along Sete de Setembro Avenue and Corredor da Vitória, passing colonial houses. Explore Campo Grande, Piedade, and Castro Alves Square before walking through the old city. Visit the Pierre Verger Foundation, the African Museum, São Francisco Church, and the slave-built Nossa Senhora do Rosário dos Homens Pretos Church. Enjoy local Bahian cuisine and a Samba-Reggae percussion lesson.

CULINARY TOUR

Begin your culinary adventure at São Joaquim Market, where you’ll handpick fresh, natural ingredients.

Finally, indulge in the flavorful specialties you’ve crafted, complemented by natural juices and Bahian desserts.

Day 4
CANDOMBLE: RELIGIOUS, SOCIAL FOCUS AND COMMUNITY VISITS 

Candomblé is an Afro-Brazilian religion that blends African spiritual traditions with Catholicism, worshiping deities known as Orixás. We visit a traditional Candomblé temple, where this Afro-Brazilian religion preserves African values amidst the city’s growth. Then, we explore CURUZU – LIBERDADE, Salvador’s largest Afro-descendant community, with a neighborhood walk and a quick stop at a local bar. Next, we admire the Orixá sculptures at Dique do Tororó, and end our tour at Rio Vermelho, home to Yemanjá’s house, where a major celebration occurs every February 2nd.

LOWER CITY TOUR

After having our delicious meal, we continue the tour, visiting the DIQUE DO TORORÒ, where beautiful sculptures of the ORIXAS (African saints) can be seen; The Lower City tour includes the calm waters of the Itapagipe Peninsula where life moves at a slower pace. Fishermen fish from dug out canoes, locals collect shellfish at low tide and schooners lie at anchor. We continue on to the famous Church of Bomfim – where the African religion Candomblé and its connections to Catholicism are explained by the tour guide .
