On our way to Cachoeira, (that takes around one hour an fifteen minutes), we will stop in Santo Amaro town to visit a fascinating and bustling rural market, where you will see (and maybe taste!), some of Bahia's spectacular fruits, vegetables and its peculiar products. We will also go for a short walk to visit the main square of the town, where we can see the Church of Our Lady of Purification and the old City Hall. The total visit in the town will be around one hour and fifteen minutes.

Once in Cachoeira, we will take a walk to admire this facinating old Portuguese colonial city with its typical architecture, churches (on the way, we can visit The Carmo Church or The Rosary Church), The Old City Hall and the idyllic Paraguaçu river, one of the most important in Bahia. We will also be able to learn about the immense influence of enslaved African in the region, with their culture, religion and gastronomy.

For lunch, and depending on availability, we can go to a colonial farm (where we will have a beautiful view of the river and surroundings) or to a local restaurant in town.

After lunch, we will go for a walk, for about 45 minutes, in the town of São Félix and visit a famous handmade cigar factory, across the river. After the visit we will head back to Salvador. The travel time will be around one hour and fifteen minutes.
