Our trip takes us directly to the south of the state to the town of Brejinho, where we visit a factory producing farinha, a coarse “flour” made from maize (type of corn). We’ll continue to Parque Pedra da Boca to take a 40 minute walk to observe the indigenous paintings, the fauna and flora from this region.

We’ll continue to the Bom Jardim Farm, a sugar plantation where we’ll have a beautiful lunch of traditional, regional food. After lunch, we’ll tour the farm, learning about the way of life for the old plantation owners called coronéis (colonels), including furniture and other historic pieces. There may also be optional horseback riding available.

TOUR HIGHLIGHTS:

  • Farinha Corn Flour Factory
  • 40 Minute Walk - Nature & Indigenous Paintings
  • Bom Jardim Farm Tour
  • Traditional Lunch
  • Optional Horseback Riding


  • Duration: 10 HOURS
