Caxias do Sul Italian Immigration Tour

We'll pick you up at your hotel in Caxias do Sul to start this tour through the history of Italian immigration in the state of Rio Grande do Sul.

During the visit, we'll learn about the arrival of Italian immigrants from Lombardy, Veneto, or Tyrol during the second half of the 17th century and the formation of the first colonies.

We'll explore the history of the Italian settlers in key places such as the Galópolis neighbourhood and the Território Museum, where old constructions and the figure of Italian Hercules Galló are featured.

Our next stop will be the grotto of Nossa Senhora de Lourdes, located on Estrada do Imigrante and surrounded by a natural environment. Afterward, we'll visit the Bonnet Museum to see furniture and tools from that time.

After lunch, we'll visit the National Museum of the Immigrant, inaugurated in 1954, to learn about the settlers' journey to Brazil.

Finally, we'll conclude the tour by taking you back to your hotel, arriving six hours after pickup.
