After picking you up at your hotel between 7:30 and 8 am, we'll start with a sightseeing tour of Boa Viagem beach. You have the option to board a catamaran (not included) that will take you along the coast of Recife. Those who prefer to continue by land will follow the route until arriving at Marco Zero, where the catamaran ride also ends. From Marco Zero, we'll walk along Rua do Bom Jesus.

Continuing, we will tour the three islands (Recife, Santo Antônio, and Boa Vista), the Maurício de Nassau Bridge, and Praça da República, which houses the Government Palace, Santa Isabel Theater, and Palace of Justice.
