Rota do Cangaço Excursion

We'll pick you up at 6:30 am at your hotel in Aracaju and set off for the towns located along the Rota do Cangaço. The first stop will be in Piranhas, a historic town noted for its 19th-century colorful houses, where we will review the history of the cangaceiros led by Virgulino Ferreira da Silva, also known as Lampião.
