Discover the local culture of Marcelino and visit the House of Artisan Women and Tapuio on this fantastic private tour.

Description

We'll pick you up from your hotel in Barreirinhas and take you to the Preguiças River, where we'll board a speedboat to sail towards Tapuio.

Our first stop will be to learn about the artisan process of making manioc flour, an important product in Maranhão cuisine, which serves as the main economic activity of this town.

Next, we will sail for 40 minutes to reach the House of Artisan Women of Marcelino, where an association focuses on the craft of the buriti palm tree.

The women here treat the fibers of this plant to create craftsmanship. You will have the opportunity to purchase artisan souvenirs such as traditional bags, paintings, and other objects.

We will conclude the tour by returning you to your hotel in Barreirinhas, with the total duration of the tour being three hours.
