Daí tive que ir na orla da praia saindo de quiosque em quiosque procurando o responsável pela atividade. Só conseguir fazer pois tinha um lá que tinha parceria com a “ empresa” ao qual contratei, caso contrário não iria conseguir fazer a atividade. O rapaz que me atendeu me passou a informação que eles não tinham mais o ponto…”

In Santos, Danilo guided us through the Port of Santos, Monte Serrat, the Coffee Museum, Rei do Café, and the Pelé Museum, bringing each place to life with stories and history. We visited Orchid garden, a wonderful combination of fauna and flora. We finished the day in Guarujá, enjoying lunch on the beach, ocean time, and a peaceful atmosphere.
