Do you want to learn about the legacy of Dutch culture in Brazil? Join us on this tour to Carambeí and Castrolanda where we'll discover the history of the immigrants from the Netherlands who arrived in the country between the 19th and 20th centuries.

Carambeí + Castrolanda Tour

At 7 am we'll pick you up at your hotel in Curitiba and drive to Castrolanda, approximately three hours away.

We'll get off the bus and start exploring this village of Dutch origin. The population was founded by Dutch immigrants in 1951, which is reflected in the architecture of their houses and the historical museum of Castrolanda.

We'll learn about the causes, phases, and motivations of immigration from the Netherlands to Brazil. This migration led to significant economic development through agricultural companies that established these European colonies. We'll visit a life-size replica of the Woldzigt mill in Roderwolde, located in northern Holland.

Afterwards, we'll take a break at a local restaurant to enjoy a typical Dutch lunch.

With renewed energy, we'll return to the minibus and go to Carambeí, another village linked to Dutch immigration. Here, we'll visit the Historical Park, which recreates a Dutch village from the beginning of the 20th century.

We'll learn facts about Dutch culture and tradition as we stroll through this village, contemplating its church, houses, and mills. You'll feel like you’ve traveled to the Netherlands without leaving Brazil!

We'll finish the excursion at 7 pm, arriving at your hotel.
