Your Tour Brazil

Engage in a comprehensive exploration of the daily routines and historical heritage of the Quilombos community. Gain insights into the cultivation of manioc through guided tours, interact with local elders, and witness the craftsmanship at a cigar manufacturing facility.



The Bahia Recôncavo region is celebrated for its historical struggles toward Brazilian independence. This area embodies both the colonial Portuguese influence and the rich African heritage, evident in its residents' physical features, religious practices, and cultural traditions.

The journey commences in Santo Amaro, a city primarily fueled by the cultivation of sugar cane and slave labor. Visitors can explore the public fair and its secular structures. Subsequently, they traverse sugar cane, manioc, and tobacco plantations before reaching the Quilombo Kaonge, an indigenous settlement where one can immerse themselves in daily life and gain insights into local customs and knowledge.

A significant stop involves conversing with the griôs (elders), who provide valuable perspectives on traditional crafts and culinary techniques. Following this, participants engage in practical demonstrations of flour-making and oil-palm-oil production, followed by a leisurely meal.

In the late afternoon, travelers proceed to the capital city of the Recôncavo region, Cachoeira-Ba. They cross the Paraguaçu River via a bridge constructed by the English in 1830, eventually visiting the Danneman cigar factory. Afterward, they return to their accommodations.
