Great Experience - Angela was great! She told us all about the historic center in Sao Luís, the people, and showed us how incredible Sao Luis is. We learned a lot! We appreciated the tour being in English as we don’t speak Portugese. Overall great experience!

Informative and varied tour - Very informative and varied tour. It is worth exploring the old town on foot. In addition to the many backgrounds and stories, it was important for me to be with someone who also has a good intuition about which streets are best avoided.

# Historic center of São Luís in the vein # - Excellent experience with the guide Rosalia Martins who demonstrated confidence and control during the guide through the historic center of São Luís. Furthermore, she took me to watch a Crioula Drum circle and, finally, gave me valuable tips during my stay in Maranhão. It cost!

Valid for an overview of the historic centre - The tour is valid for those who have limited time and who actually see the historic center. Very light walk, suitable for local heat. Reasonably well-informed guide, though confusing with dates. It takes to places that if alone would not go due to lack of visible information, as a mirror in the building of the Municipal Secretariat of the Farm. Worth the tour

Great - Our walk in the historic center of São Luís was very rewarding, accompanied by the local guide, we visited Rua do Giz, the Palácio dos Leões, unfortunately closed for works, Ana Jasen's house, unfortunately abandoned, the Nossa Senhora da Conceição Church, beautiful, well cared for, the Tulhas Market is very friendly, the Gastronomy Museum is unmissable.

Badly preserved beauty - Everything interesting was built over 100 years ago. The center is very small and needs a renovated, but with some interesting buildings. Manu's Guide helped to understand the various stages of the place's history.

Frustratingly, guide didn't show up - Very frustrating. The guide didn't show up. We called the operator and they informed us that the booked tour was in the system but that Tripadvisor had not informed them about the reservation. As I was only going to stay in São Luís for one day, it was not possible to move to another day. I will contact you for a refund.
