The trip is not easy especially if you don't speak Portuguese. At least there is a guide all the time that you can follow. The bus is comfortable. If you have heavy suitcases it might be difficult to carry it from one transportation to another where in some places there is basically no pavements or the road is bumpy. It was pretty exhausting at the end but this option is still better than a direct boat with vomiting people.

I can recommend it. The communication is quite good through whatsapp and they respond in english which is great. There is a guide through the whole journey who you can basically just follow and he can help with any requests. All in all it was quite comfortable and probably better than the direct catamaran for someone who has a seasickness.

Excellent and reliable transfer. They picked me up at my hotel in Salvador. It was a great way, stress-free, to get to Morro de São Paulo. I definitely recommend them. Thank you

We took it to go back at Salvador from Boipeba. It was perfect and on time again !

Fantastic tour! You must try their cocktails served on the boat
