Description
Florianópolis is known in Brazil as the 'Island of Magic'. Its breathtaking beaches are a paradise to surfers and beach goers alike. It is thought by many as the best place to unwind and get in touch with your inner self. It holds a lot of history as well as some of the most beautiful beaches in the country
In addition to over 40 gorgeous beaches, 'Floripa' the city's nickname has plenty of other attractions. On the tour, you will see the historical center wherever the little yellow and charming metropolitan cathedral is located.
In the most important square of the city, we'll get acquainted with Praça Novembro XV (15th of November Square, named after the date in which the republic was proclaimed) wherever the imposing Palace Cruz e Souza stands, which now houses the historical museum of Santa Catarina.
The Palace is important in many ways as it's staged many important moments in Brazilian history throughout different points in time. It hosted both Brazilian emperors during their visits to the city and was stormed by revolutionaries during the federalist revolution in 1891. It seems this palace has seen its share of history.
Named after the Governor of Santa Catarina, another historical and visually striking location is the Ponte Hercilio Luz. It was the first bridge constructed to link the Island of Santa Catarina to the mainland. The bridge is now closed for traffic and it is a national cultural heritage.
But obviously, in a city like Floripa, the beaches and lagoons are still a must see. One of our other stops is one of the most famous natural landmarks in the city, the Lagoa da Conceição.
The neighborhood houses not only a lagoon, but also a few buildings dating back to when the city was colonized and settled.
We will visit the lagoon of Conceição belvedere, which has a beautiful and complete view of the lagoon and Morro das Sete Voltas, afterwards, we will pass the Rendeiras avenue, arriving at Joaquina Beach, wherever various national and world surfing championships take place. Beautiful waves are great for practicing the sport and it is a place admired by sports fans.
Leaving Joaquina, we will go to Barra da Lagoa, wherever we will have free time for lunch (not included).
Finally, tourists return to their hotels.

Impecable, no le encuentro un pero. El recorrido está bien pensado, no se repite ni da vueltas de más. El precio es honesto para lo que se recibe. Algunas paradas necesitan más sombra para esperar. Si volvemos a Balneario de Camboriu, lo repetimos.

Vale cada centavo
Reservamos a último momento y fue un acierto total. La coordinación fue puntual y todo estuvo organizado. Llegar a Florianópolis fue impresionante. Si volvemos a Balneario de Camboriu, lo repetimos.

Mucho mejor de lo que imaginaba. Pasar por Balneario de Camboriu valió el tour entero. Aprovechamos guía de turismo en español más de lo que pensábamos.

Recomendable, sabiendo qué esperar. Nos atendieron por WhatsApp para una duda y respondieron en minutos. Que venga con autobús con aire acondicionado lo hace más completo. Terminar en Florianópolis Copenhague fue el mejor cierre. La música estaba algo fuerte para conversar. Lo recomendaría igual.

Casi perfecto
Positivo en general, con margen de mejora. Buen guía, correcto y amable. Aldea Balneario de Camboriu fue una sorpresa, no estaba en nuestros planes. La única queja es que no avisaron que había bastante escalera.

Lo volvería a hacer sin dudarlo. Nos avisaron de un cambio de horario con tiempo suficiente. Usamos traslado compartido de ida y vuelta a la mayoría de los hoteles en Balneário Camboriú todo el tiempo y funcionó perfecto.
