Santa Maria + Itaara Day Trip
Santa Maria + Itaara Day Trip
We'll pick you up from your Santa Maria hotel and kick start our day exploring this beautiful city of Rio Grande do Sul. Fun fact: this town is also home to one of the largest universities in Brazil!
First, we'll stroll the streets of Santa Maria in search of the Nossa Senhora da Conceição cathedral, Nossa Senhora Medianeira de Todas as Graças sanctuary, the Belgian Villa, and several other significant sites. While passing through these locations, we'll delve into the city's history, tracing its roots back to the times of its foundation by Spanish and Portuguese settlers.
Next, we'll take a quick lunch break at a traditional restaurant. With our appetites satiated and newfound energy, we'll make our way to Itaara, the day's second stop. Our journey will include a visit to a market and the International Museum of UFOs, History, and Science. As we explore, we might ponder questions about the existence of aliens, our knowledge of the cosmos, and the authenticity of moon landings.
Then, once in Itaara, we'll visit the most well-known waterfalls in the area. Here, we'll also delve into the town's storied past as it was previously home to the first Jewish settlement in Brazil.
Finally, after an immersive 8 hours of experience, we'll bring you back to your hotel in Santa Maria.
