Incredible place - Its location is privileged, in the tourist corridor of the city, super recommend the place well located quite quiet.

Great, updated culture. - The tourist Guide Jhonn was top, made a historical contextualization of the locality, very good knowledge acquired.

Historical city - Well maintained and safe place. I recommend taking a tour with an accredited local guide. Discover the budega do came, the shrimp and cheese pie are unmissable. Lots of landscapes for beautiful photos.

Fun - Very good communication before the tour. We were the only two English speaking people but they organised the guide (Barruki?) who spoke very good English and included us all the time, he was also very entertaining. His Dutch pronunciation was spot on ;). We liked the tour and the guide and would definitely recommend it. Good pace and sights.

Charming time - Tour was all day on a bus and even though I was the only English speaker on the tour the guide did his best to include me. Must see for Onlinda alone

Carlos Masur of Masurtur is an excellent guide!! - Through the hotel I booked, I was referred to Carlos Masur of Masutur. I arranged several services with Carlos as he was helpful and replied promptly to my messages. One of the tours I did with Carlos was the city tour of Recife and Olinda. Carlos picked me up from my hotel in Boa Viagem and we made our way through the historic district and onto Olinda. Carlos was very imformative and I learned a lot about the city, for example, it was from here that the first Jewish immigrants of Holland set sail for New York in the 1600's. We visited the first synagogue in the Americas, the famous House of Dolls (famously used during Carnaval) and then the Portuguese colonial city of Olinda. If you love photography like I do, you will be amazed at the colors of the buildings and churches. Carlos makes stops so that you can walk around. Highly recommend Carlos. He speaks several languages, including English, Spanish, French and Hebrew!!

Lack of clarification about the tour at the time of hiring - Very good Guide, good bus. The tour lacked an explanation of the script. I understood everything would be done by bus. In Olinda, it was warned that, either we would walk the tour or with jeeps, paying R$60.00 per person, more than had already been agreed, because the bus can not make the route. It was only warned at the moment. I found a lack of transparency when we chose the tour. And we didn't have time to visit the Recife handicraft market. From Mark Zero, we're back for the bus.

Getting to know RECIFE - Visit for more days, time was short but Recife, Olinda very beautiful and historical, for the first time I had a good impression, I must return next time and visit Puerto GalinhaS

Good way to get to know the main locations and culture - The guide was very friendly and nice. She gave us informations about the cities and spoke in English. I was hoping that the tour would also take is inside the most important places, such as museums, but we were just brought to specific spots and given some time to explore the surroundings by ourselves.

Tour that was more transfer - The driver and bus service is just compliments. They were punctual (which is rare in tourist tours in Porto de Galinhas where I left), clean bus, polite and careful driver in the direction. But I did not contract a transfer, but a tour and the guide did not bring practically any information, it was only a matter of taking us to the establishments agreed and where he receives commission for the group's purchases. The lunch also had no prior guidance and there was no more consideration, since we were taken to an isolated restaurant and with a well-salted price. There was an episode of the guide Vagner who started complaining with everyone about the delay of some participants and being in the queue of a craft store that he himself insisted everyone to enter. I was quite frustrated with the guide service and the lack of historical information, expecting a more informative tour and with fewer stops at handicrafts and souvenirs. Other guides who were conducting groups at the same points, facilitated and oriented their groups on queues, history, admission and took photos including...in our group we did not have these services available. On the return, the guide Vagner stayed all the time on the cell phone in private calls and did not even talk low...without paying any attention to the tourists...and had a girl who even passed the point of his hotel and had to get off and back from Uber...even when she came off the bus, the guide Vagner commented that she should have warned that she had seen his hotel. Without notion and without any desire to provide tour service =( unfortunately we had a whole day that could have been quite rich in information and knowledge and was not. An additional suggestion is to provide a location and optional stop for an afternoon snack in Olinda as there was nothing.
