Rejuvenate by the famed Bahia Coast
LUXURY TRAVEL BAHIA
Travel to the Bahia coast, a region known for lush tropical vegetation and untouched beaches, during this private tour in Brazil. Begin in Salvador de Bahia, the largest city in Brazil’s Bahia state, where you will learn about the region’s colonial past as you visit Pelourinho (the old city), Mercado Model, and the Farol da Barra. From there, continue to Trancoso, an exclusive beachside enclave with a bohemian feel perfectly suited to luxury travel. After visiting the town’s charming central plaza, the Quadrado and admiring the appropriately colorful architecture, choose from a variety of active excursions. Highlights include biking in the lush Valley of Buffaloes, taking a surf lesson with a pro on the lively Itapemirim Beach, and kayaking on Rio do Barra, one of the most isolated beaches in the area.

Salvador de Bahia (2 nights)
On arrival in Bahia, your host will take you to Fasano Salvador, a charming hotel overlooking Brazilian waters. On your luxury Bahia tour, you will experience the thriving culinary, religious, dance and musical traditions of Salvador.
Learn about the country’s colonial history on a private guided tour of the city’s highlights which include: the Old City known as Pelourinho and its stunning gilded churches and colonial architecture; the Mercado Model, a former customs building and slave warehouse turned into a local market known for its handicrafts; and the Farol da Barra, a picturesque lighthouse with beautiful views. You will have the option to take part in an authentic afro-Brazilian drumming class followed by a capoeira show – the acrobatic martial art form – in the evening.
Trancoso (3 nights)
Continue your luxury Brazil tour by flying to Porto Seguro where you will be greeted by your host and transferred to the small historical town of Trancoso. Stay on the Quadrado itself at the UXUA Casa Hotel & Spa. Frequented by Brazilian elite and Hollywood movie stars, Trancoso has been claimed as a hidden paradise reminiscent of St. Tropez. Named a World Heritage Site by UNESCO, its main plaza, the Quadrado, is home to a beautiful church and small colorful houses surrounded by charming restaurants and bars which make it a lively summer getaway.
During your time in Trancoso, enjoy an exciting biking excursion through the Valley of Buffaloes, go kayaking along Rio da Barra, surf with a professional on Itapimirim Beach, golf on one of the most beautiful courses on the continent, and of course, take advantage of the extensive coastline of spectacular deserted beaches.
Corumbau (2 nights)
Take a private boat to the secluded premises of the luxurious beachfront boutique resort Fazenda São Francisco do Corumbau. On this boating experience you will be able to visit neighboring estuaries and beautiful, deserted beaches of southern Bahia. Visit the virgin beach and natural pools of Itaquena for some snorkeling and anchor at Praia do Espelho (Mirror Beach) where you will enjoy a delicious lunch by the sea. Later, continue onto Corumbau.
The Fazenda is located across the river from the Pataxó Indian Reserve, facing the ocean and surrounded by palm trees. Explore the hidden natural paradise of Corumbau, meaning “distant place” in the local Pataxó native language.
Settle into your new environment by enjoying an invigorating walk, bike ride or jog along the 15km of deserted white sand beaches, then swim or snorkel in the ocean. During your time at Corumbau, you will be able to relax on the beach or poolside at your hotel. Sample delicious meals with organic fruit juices and vegetables supplied by the village farms and fresh seafood caught by local fishermen.
Your luxury Brazil tour ends with a private helicopter ride back to Porto Seguro airport for your departure flight.
