Amazing Tour

Published on Jan, 2025

Joshuel was an excellent tour guide. He was very knowledgeable about the history of African Brazilians and the country of Brasil.

African city tour is NOT to be missed!!!

Published on Jan, 2025

A must do if you are traveling to Salvador! So much African history in this great city you will want to take it all in. Be mindful of the days you do it since around the holidays the museum we wanted to do that was included in the tour was closed. Tour guides should provide some blackout dates so tourists know that in advance. We had no way of knowing that but with that said it was still a wonderful tour. Josuel and Kayuri were both outstanding!

Salvador with Josuel!

Published on Nov, 2024

Josuel is an amazing tour guide! He was very accommodating to our group of 12. He planned some very knowledgeable and fun tours for our group. He is very knowledgeable on African-Brazilian culture and history! Thanks Josuel!!

Brasil Diaspora Experience

Published on Nov, 2024

Josuel is an amazing and passionate tour guide who is extremely knowledgeable about the Africa diaspora in Brazil. We sought his service to help plan, coordinate and deliver a three day tour of Salvador for a group of twelve individuals. We specifically asked for places/events/activities that would help us to know more about our ancestors and Josuel delivered. We toured and studied Pelourinho, attended a candomble service, participated in a Bahian cuisine cooking class and partnered with a local school that focused upon serving and educating children in the community. His attention to detail and desire to maximize our experience meant the world to us. We learned so much in such a short time . He also provided us with great food and shopping recommendations. His tours are the best !
