Traveler reviews
Make accounts before you go
Driver and guide very punctual and requested, but the City tour is very expensive. R$ 60,00 sleepy catamaran of 30 min, R$ 50,00 2 visits to see dolls and frevo (1 person) - 20 min. R$ 80.00 for riding from Toyota 4x4 by Olinda (Because onibus big can not enter). The crafts centers are very cool and the place they chose for lunch too (Bode do No, but it's not cheap)
Buen tour
The guide Baruque was very funny and spoke in Portuguese as in Spanish so that we could all understand. The price of the tour is cheap because in reality everything has to be paid as optional (the toyotas that take you all over Olinda de Olinda Receptivo and the Embaixada dos Bonecos Gigantes). Lunch is in a restaurant per kilo which is fine with me as they are not as expensive as those that are a la carte. The tour ends around 3 p.m. Most of the tour is in Olinda and after lunch you will continue with Recife. The tour says it is on Tangol's side but in reality the local provider is Martur Turismo.
DISMAL WILL TO RESOLVE A SITUATION
I paid as per the Service, the TANGOL Enterprise was slow to send me the information and when I sent 2 hours late the name of the hotel where we were staying, since we had been traveling, they left me without the historical-cultural walk to Recife and Olinda. I asked to be allowed to make it happen the next day and they told me they had no place. No positive response, very bad will to resolve the situation. Maybe I did the walk with another agency and the tour was spectacular and unforgettable.
Excellent both the driver and the guide Carol!
Great, because the guide Carol was excellent in the history of all places of the City Tuor in Recife The guide was punctual, correct all the places that were made the visits always cheerful demonstrating all commitment to the work.
Loss with everything I had to pay
Note 2! The guide is wonderful More the ride gets more expensive at the end Taking photos of bus window with smoke filter is better to stay at home.. Any breath is paid. Much better close a package ya including everything It's not worth it.
