On this tour you will discover the unique region around the Bay of All Saints, the Recôncavo. This is the most African region of Brazil that received the first sugar cane plantations and the first slaves, imported from black Africa. This is a "back to the roots" tour that will give you an unforgettable experience of expatriation.

Leaving Salvador, we pass the poor suburbs of Salvador and, later, a succession of fields for agriculture and grasslands. A whirling road passing by bamboo plantations takes us first to the city of Santo Amaro where we visit the amazing and busy local market and some streets and squares in the center. Then, the road takes us to the historical city of Cachoeira that lies majestically in the valley of the Paraguaçu river. Here, we stroll through the picturesque streets with its old colonial houses and churches and there will be time for lunch. In the afternoon we visit the cigar factory of Dannemann where the famous top class cigars are still hand rolled.

    Dirk was my tour guide. His knowledge of Bahia comes from decades of having lived in Salvador and being part of the community. He was awesome. I learned a lot. I spent three months in Salvador in 1998. I traveled to Santa Amaro to see Caetano Veloso perform in his home town, but I knew nothing about the city. Dirk did a great job of telling the history of the region. I also enjoyed our encounters withe people we met. Dirk is an excellent guide. I highly recommend this trip to those people who want to explore Afro- Brazilian culture.

    Dirk was an amazing guide. He got us off the beaten path and helped to really understand what Salvador and Cachoeira really are and how these two historic cities fit into Brazil’s development.
