Incredible Train Tour - We took the train ride in the morning. The Van da Special Paraná picked us up at our hotel, took us to the train. The train ride is sensational, lasts around 4 hours passing through amazing landscapes and mountains, throughout the journey goes a Guide explaining. At the end of the journey the van picked us up and took us to lunch and get to know another city. In the end we returned to Curitiba in the van all very satisfied with the experience.

Cabin at sunset - The whole tour was fabulous: all the time combined and the charism, knowledge and experience of the Guide Rafael were essential for our family. All the times and moves very well calculated. We were positively surprised with the return seeing the sunset, very nice and in the cabin was the realization of a family dream. The boarding service was also amazing and we will recommend to our friends who want to take the tour.
