when we search flights, we noted the flight connection time is much better if we start from Fortaleza to Sao Luis. Therefore, we would like to ask (1) what time the tour will start on Day 1 from Fortaleza and (2) what time you will drop us off in the airport on Day 7 on Sao Luis.

The transfers on both the first and last day are private, but here are my suggestions: First day (arrival in Fortaleza): it's best to arrive in the morning or early afternoon. The transfer lasts around 5 hours. Last day (departure from São Luís): the departure time doesn't really matter, as you'll already be in São Luís from the previous evening.

Five stars! Despite our frustrating experiences with some logistical problems caused by transportation providers: on our first day, we were dropped off at a wrong hotel then the driver came very late for the La Ventana dinner and Tango show. But for both cases, Daria who was our booking agent was quick to respond to us and resolved the problems as soon as she could. We appreciate her efforts. We really enjoyed the experience at Estancia El Ombu de Areco - it was very authentic and memorable. La Ventana was also great. Highly recommend overall.Show more
