Salvador de Bahia Tours

Salvador de Bahia is Brazil’s largest bay and was the former capital for the Portuguese colonizers during the 16th century. During this period Salvador’s economy was based upon its sugarcane and tobacco exports for which African slaves were brought over to assist with the high volumes of production. This history has made Salvador de Bahia the home of Afro-Brazilian culture, where the locals’ African heritage can be seen in their particular cooking, dancing, Capoeira and religious practices and styles. South America Adventure Travel's Salvador de Bahia travel itineraries will keep you busy with plenty to see and do as the city houses many beautiful colonial buildings and churches, as well as the popular Fonte Nova football stadium and various markets.
