Private Walk Tour Of Paraty's Historical Center - By Paraty Tours

Fernanda is a really insightful guide. She gave us a comprehensive history of Paraty with interesting facts. She answered all of our questions and introduced us to local artisans and cool spots.

We took an Italian-language walking tour of the city of Paraty with Maria Elvira, an exceptional guide who was very knowledgeable and personable. Maria Elvira showed us the city's main points of interest, paying close attention to historical details and anecdotes. It was a truly enjoyable tour. We highly recommend it!

Very good guidance by Ellen, she was very punctual and flexible to meet all our requests. We would highly recommend her .

Christ was a great guide made the trip fun and very informative, learnt a lot about the history of Brazil as well as Paraty. Would recommend the tour with Chris.

My tour was excellent. I learned so much and really enjoyed understanding the history and present of Paraty. Highly recommend.

This was a tale of two cities. We enjoyed touring the historic part of Paraty, and we appreciated how well Viator and Paraty Tours company communicated with us. However, we have never worked with a tour guide who is so negative (e.g. "Brazilians are unorganized, the French are complicated, religions are not good"). We would work with Paraty Tours again, but not with this tour guide.

We thoroughly enjoyed our tour with Christiano. He was full of knowledge about Paraty and also he was a charming person to spend a couple of hours with. I highly recommend his tours.

Great, quick tour of downtown Paraty. Learned quite a bit in this short tour. Great tour for learning the history of the area without committing a whole day to a tour.

Our historical center guide was Ramon who started the tour by bringing us up to the hill where the Portuguese built their fort to protect Paraty from any invasion and gave the history of this former Portugeuse colonial town We were shown a local beach, details on churches we passed but were closed, description of daily life before, why and how the houses were painted in different colors. We were given tips on where to eat, what other things to do in Paraty, recommendation of museum to visit.

Blumar Tour Operator arranged a private tour of Brazil for my spouse and I that included transport from Rio to Paraty, and also the return from Paraty to Rio with Paraty Tours. Included in the package, we also had a private walking tour of the charming historical town of Paraty with Paraty Tours. Our guide, Ramone, was prompt in meeting us as we exited the airport in Rio, the car and driver waiting to take us to Paraty. Since we had had nothing to eat due to an early morning flight, Ramone kindly arranged for a lunch stop during the long drive. Our driver did a great job, and was very safe. The following day, Ramone escorted us on a private walking tour of Paraty, not only pointing out all the historical sites, but also advising us on where to eat lunch and dinner. He is very well-informed, and is such a delightful person to be with. A different driver met us at our pousada the following day to return us to the airport in Rio. My spouse and I were very pleased with all the persons, the reliability and the promptness of all during this part of our tour in Brazil. It was a fantastic experience. Thank you Paraty Tours!

Visit of the old town of Paraty (private tour) very interesting and nice surprise because Leidiana who was to visit us in English, made us everything in French. It was great! Many thanks to her, she did very well!!

The tours we did were wonderful, the first, it was on a boat with 8 people to get to know the bay of Paraty, simply sensational, the pilot of the boat was very attentive and knew very well all the parades we did on the beaches, the snorkeling dive was fantastic. The tour through the Historic Center was also very good, the guide combines very well the history of the city and the casarons, a true class of outdoor history, not to mention the galleries we visited. Spectacular!!!!

Extraordinary experience in paraty my second time and we will come back again we were very well attended Priscila and her companions everything was perfect we will choose the next trip Paraty, Brazil’s polluted water tourist haven Despite being declared a world heritage site by UNESCO for its culture and biodiversity, the city has not resolved basic sanitation, which affects the health of people and ecosystems

Excellent tour of the historic city of Paraty. The guide can explain, with his thorough knowledge of the region and the historical facts, various events that marked the trajectory of this community.

Knowing the history of the place by an accredited Guide is very important and they delivered us an excellent service. Thank you ☺️

Very good and attemptive store staff! Bernardino the guide is excelent, lots of general culture and even more on Paraty history! Learnt a Lot! Very nice and attentive the attendees of the store. Excellent Bernardino Guide, general culture and a lot of knowledge about the history of Paraty! I learned a lot!

The explanations were great, the stops to take pictures and understanding of the guide on the main historical points of the city.

An incredible experience with the very requested guide and who passed us information about the history of the city, the architecture, the customs. I highly recommend!

Me and my husband hired a 4x4 Jeep Tour ride through waterfalls and alambics. We love it. The Everton guide gave a show of knowledge about the Royal Road, the gold cycle, the manufacture of cachaça and manioca flour. Besides, of course, to take us to beautiful waterfalls, especially that of Tobogan. Always very safe and kind. Unperishable.

Touring the Historical Center of Paraty with Guide Ramón from the Paraty Tours Agency is a separate chapter in the history of Brazil. At every step, a discovery. The guided tour brings knowledge and includes us as part of this history.

Leaving early in the morning from Sao Paulo, after a first stop in Aparecida to visit the Basilica of Our Lady of Aparecida and a second stop to refresh ourselves in a small place that seems to have come out of a fairy tale, the Casa dello Strudel, we arrived in Paraty where we stayed in one of the many pousadas that characterize this charming and characteristic colonial-style town, the southernmost of the municipalities in the State of Rio de Janeiro, the second tourist center in the State after the capital and 17th in the whole country. After unpacking, we went and had dinner at a highly rated local restaurant. Upon leaving the restaurant, the weather put us to the test because walking on the cobbled streets that characterize the historic center in the rain was not easy! It rained all night... and in the morning the weather is Decide to have dinner in one of the many restaurants found in this... and you find yourself sitting at a table that is reflected in one of the canals that cross it... and so you think back to the town where you live whose river and dock are completely separated from the city territory... fortunately improved, even if there was a layer of humidity from all the water that had fallen and was literally evaporating.... We enjoyed the breakfast included in the price of the room, comfortably sitting on the patio next to the swimming pool, in a truly tropical atmosphere... and then first we went for a swim in the Praia do Jabaquara, right behind the pousada, located in a sheltered bay surrounded by intense green forest. With the car, we then returned to the historic center of the previous evening... where we had had a bad time, but which in the sunlight was something completely different.... The streets had dried out despite the amount of rain that had fallen, and the colors and colonial atmosphere were very relaxing. We wandered around every corner, finding many typical craft shops, little squares, restaurants and churches all surrounded by tropical flowers and trees. The port was full of typical and colorful boats ready to take tourists on excursions to the various bays of the natural park and in fact we booked one for the next day, Easter Sunday. An excursion that lasted the whole day which took us to visit various beaches, including the one from which you access the Juatinga reserve characterized by a morro that can be reached with a long hike and from which you can admire the entire Paraty region. On one of these beaches we stopped for a light lunch in a classic Brazilian restaurant. Returning to Paraty in the late afternoon... after a refreshing stop in the pousada, we returned to the center to have dinner in an "Italian tavern" where we enjoyed an excellent margherita pizza while also trying some traditional Italian culinary dishes. After a night's rest, necessary after the long Sunday day, and after the rich "tropical" breakfast we left to return to Sao Paulo, thus concluding this Easter weekend. Bruno Marfe

We did some services with Paraty Tours, including transfer in/out RJ, City Tour and schooner ride. All services were impeccable, starting with the transfer. The vehicle was extremely clean, comfortable, and the trip was super peaceful. On the City Tour, we were accompanied by the guide Cristiano, an extremely attentive professional, who explained every detail to us with great attention, always open to answering our questions and curiosities. The schooner trip was wonderful, from start to finish, friendly staff, delicious food and drinks, safety, attention to detail, everything was perfect. The Paraty Tours team is incredible, with dedicated and very attentive professionals. I recommend everyone to hire Paraty Tours services.

A big thank you to Gabriel for accompanying us throughout our stay in Paraty, visit to the historic center, Galion ride, and hike to the White Stone. Excellent command of French, he has a very rich vocabulary to teach us the history of the city. We will keep excellent memories of this stay thanks to him. The Breton Fire Brigade.

Incredible city tour with guide Bernardino. We also took a jeep tour and a schooner ride on the Neptune Vintage boat, all of which were impeccable. Flávia also provided excellent service from start to finish, always answering any questions and providing prompt feedback. You are the best, we plan to come back soon.

Very helpful and attentive guide during a super informative tour with lots of tips and stories about the charming city of Paraty.

I had an incredible stay with Paraty Tours! I highlight the City Tour, guided by the excellent Bernardino, who provided an informative and engaging experience. The schooner itinerary, Paradisiacal Islands, was also spectacular, revealing stunning landscapes. I want to express my gratitude to the attendant Flávia, always agile and efficient in resolving unforeseen events. Her professionalism contributed significantly to the quality of our trip. I highly recommend Paraty Tours for a memorable tourist experience!

The Paraty Experience stood out for its professionalism, it was an unparalleled experience. Excellence in service and dedication to the customer raised the standard of my trip. The tours were very punctual and the guides are to be congratulated, all very friendly and concerned with offering the best tour with comfort and safety.

Tour was incredible! The guide Luan was attentive and gave us a lesson on the history of the city. In the historic center we passed through several important points learning about the culture, customs, architecture and commemorative dates of the region. We recommend this tour at the beginning of your stay in Paraty to better understand the city.

Bernardino was an amazing guide! You know a lot! Our group loved it! It was essential to enjoy Paraty, starting our trip by learning from Bernardino.

I loved the experience and the speed of how I was treated, our guide very attentive and very dedicated to the tour!

Essential activity for the travellers, our guide was the Bernadino, wasted sympathy and knowledge. We understood every corner of the historic center of Paraty and aroused curiosity to continue researching more about the history of Brazil and the gold route.

Guia knew a lot, spoke very fast, couldn't keep everything, it would be legal for the agency to deliver some brochure with a summary of the history of Paraty and not just the map. But I believe that by the guide he told everything and knew a lot about Paraty.

Beautiful place, well preserved, good food, beautiful view of nature (ocean, mountains, woodland). It's worth the walk.

We did the City tour with the guide Bernardino, who was great and explained very well about the entire history and architectural aspects of Paraty. It's amazing how the perspective changes when you better understand the city. Super indicate the walk!

We did the tour with Leidiana who explained everything great and also in Spanish! We were delighted! Fully recommended. Thank you very much for organizing it!

I can say that my mother and I loved everything in this experience. We had to make an exchange on our ecotourism tours because of the rains and we didn't lose anything. From the agency's attention to the work of the guide Luis, who was very kind and friendly with us and gave us a new perspective of the city. This moment was extremely important for our trip and I can only thank you.

Fuz 4 tours with Paraty Tours and all were excellent. Great service and a lot of commitment in offering a good Service to customers.

I had a very good experience on the historic city tour of Paraty!! In addition to having the opportunity to know a little more about the history of the city what really left as a great experience was the accompaniment conducted by the guide Helena, who led us during the tour, told us a little more about the history of the city and the day-to-day of the city, as well as also proposed and guided us during the walk to Fort Perpétuo, strong of extreme importance in the emergence of the city :). Also helped us with excellent photos for remembering this day!!! Thank you!

Great walk. The guide (Luan) super attentive. Explanations on culture and history. Rich experience!

It was really a return to the past! The stories of the city and its people, was a great experience!

The city history is beautiful, worth every moment. The Citytour is important to have a better context of this space since its foundation and the historical events.

Incredible experience, this is the second time I visit Paraty and do tours with Paraty Tours, both times were impeccable. I highly indicate the trip of the Neptune Discovery which is incredible. The CIty tour with Priscila’s guide is magical, an experience that must be experienced. And I can't help but talk about the Jeep ride that was exciting and very rich with the reports of the guide Luan about the story. If you have the courage to slide into the Tobogan Waterfall, it's worth it. I'm already planning my return soon... Paraty still has a lot to show me.

I thank and congratulate the kindness and information provided by the guide Cristiano. Even with rain, the walk was extremely pleasant. I recommend the city tour to learn and respect the history and residents of this beautiful and so important city for our history.

The city is beautiful, cosy and full of history!! Meeting with the local guides gives us various information and makes the tour much better! The tours with Paraty Tours exceeded our expectations, great routes and all employees of the Enterprise, without exception, were very friendly and professional! I highly recommend Enterprise!

Paraty Tour excellent tour agency. We made tours of Escuna Blue Lake, Jeep tour p the waterfalls, Saco do Mamangua and City Tour c the Priscila guide. Thank you Paraty Tour for providing these tours with safety.

We made City tour with the Luan.Good service, super gentis.Super attentive guide and super worth knowing the entire history of Paraty with competent guide

The guide, Priscila Albernaz, super friendly and with a lot of knowledge about the history of the city, provided us with a pleasant visit to the relevant points, with the perfect duration for a general notion, without being tiring (1:30 hs). I recommend doing this tour as soon as you get to the city.

Priscila did an excellent job in conducting the city tour with interesting explanations regarding the locations locating periods of the history of Brazil and Parati. He was also able to interact skillfully with the group, with sympathy, education and good mood. I highly recommend the work of Guide Priscilla.

Me and my wife did with the Paraty Tour: City Tour, Golden Route, Escuna and Trinity. Super attentive and the guide (Luan) is sensational.. congratulations to everyone for the quality of the service and attention to the tourist!
