City tour Joao Pessoa and from the Ol to the sound of Ravel. - We made the tour with the MARAZUL RECEPTIVO. The Patrícia/Marcos guides were wonderful. Very attentive. Patricia is very attentive and always careful with the passengers. Marks with a lot of historical knowledge. The craft center very tasty and with a lot of variety. Great prices! The catamaran tour with the cangaceiros show and the Sax Jurandir playing Ravel and other songs was very picturesque. We love it. The lunch was great too! Thank you for everything!!! I recommend that you do not miss the boat ride and the sunset on Jacaré beach (which is not a beach)

João Pessoa, venhaaaa. - John person. Beautiful and welcoming city. The beach is very good, warm and quiet water. The price... I can't say it's cheap, but if we compare it to other capitals, it's good. The restaurants are varied, very snack on the beach. Tours to other beaches have plenty. If you are on vacation, try to come outside the rainy season, the sea becomes upset and the water +- cold. All I can say is that... HERE'S VERY GOOD, SO WE'VE COME BACK AND STAYED.😁

Ju - I was a bit disappointed with the historic part, abandoned sites for a tourist city, what a pity! Beautiful places but left to be desired due to the lack of work of the city

Hotels in João Pessoa - Everything is amazing and we took endless photos The food is expensive, so not like 59,90, do not repeat meal. Space and nice figures from the northeast (popes), to take pictures.

Month of July in João Pessoa - Beautiful city with very good hotel chain. July is the rainy month and although it doesn't rain much, it leaves the beaches' waters less clear. But the temperature is ok... if it stays nice. There are very interesting things like the most east end of the Americas... good walks to the beaches in the north and south of the city. Por-do-sol is program in almost all tours and has to a very visited point with boat tours with small folklore shows and the famous Ravel bolero. The shore is very beautiful but the historic center, with such interesting old buildings, is abandoned and with many street residents... The services are good...the people are nice and helpful. It is worth seeing.

It's worth knowing - Guia Marina gave a history lesson about the city. Only the Forest's restaurant that's not very good. But, the space is pleasant.

Bad walk. - The landscapes are horrible, dirty place and poorly cared for (completely different from the photos and videos that induce the tourist to want to meet), with many people in street situation asking for help, guides interested only in presenting spaces where there is some counterpart. We visit the historic center (please and old (des)colored houses), the Jurandir Maciel Art Museum and the Hotel Globo (chaotic/decadent/shameful to present places with no infrastructure to receive visitors with dirty and broken bathrooms) and the Church of São Frei Pedro Gonçalves (space in reform/ less disappointing/but also dirty) are all places in precarious situation. Total lack of respect for the visitor. Photos bring a small sample of the decline.
