ItineraryDay 1: Brazilian Heritage at its RichestStop At: State of Bahia, State of Bahia
Our tour starts in Salvador. Although many head to Bahia for its tropical coastline and tasty caipirinha drinks, the state’s most popular destination is undoubtedly its capital. Salvador is home to Afro-Brazilian heritage at its richest: deep-fried seafood, festive drum-pounding sounds, mystical religious ceremonies, dance and an artistic form of martial arts called capoeira.

Stop At: Fernando de Noronha, Fernando de Noronha, State of Pernambuco
On a side note, would you like to extend this 13-day tour by 3 days so you can visit the island of Fernando de Noronha- There is a direct flight there from Recife. The reason why Fernando de Noronha is not automatically included is because it is more of a ‘special interest’ kind of destination. Even though there is a handful of attractions which make this island nice, ultimately it is best suited for families looking for relaxation and otherwise for those who like surfing.
