Salvador

Salvador
3 Days / 2 Nights

Capital of the State of Bahia, and was also Brazil's capital until 1763, is divided in two parts. The "Lower City" is at sea level and contains the old port and the commercial area where visitors will find a complete and varied assortment of Brazilian arts and crafts at the Modelo Market. It is also the best place to witness a demonstration of "capoeira", a martial art developed by African slaves in Brazil, originally as a form of combat and later as a type of dance and folklore tradition. The "Upper City" can be reached by stone steps, alleyways or the famous Lacerda Elevator. This part of the city contains the old government buildings, the residential districts, museums, churches and much of the newer architecture.
Day 1– Arrive in Salvador. Transfer to hotel.  Day at leisure.
Day 2 – Half day tour of Salvador. We start in the modern suburb of Barra at the mouth of the Bay with its famous lighthouse and make our way slownly by car or coach to the old historical section of town, the Pelourinho area with the largest and the best preserved complex colonial architecture in the Americas. We stroll trhough the narrow, bustling streets lined with buildings in pastel shades of an age gone by. We visit the church of S. Francisco with its exuberant gold-leafed Baroque interior and the Pelourinho square, the heart of the old town. This tour shows two distinct aspects of Salvador, the new and the old, concentrating on the early expansion of the city.
