Comprehensive Recife & Olinda City Tour with guide

This extended 10-hour service allows for an immersion in the culture and history of Recife and Olinda. In addition to the standard tour itinerary, this option includes visits to cultural spaces like the Ricardo Brennand Institute or the Oficina Cerâmica Francisco Brennand (admissions not included), and a stop for lunch (not included). The morning is dedicated to Recife Antigo, including Marco Zero and Rua do Bom Jesus, along with a panoramic city view. Then, a visit is made to a cultural complex of choice. After a lunch break, the afternoon is entirely devoted to Olinda, allowing for a walking tour of Alto da Sé, the São Bento Monastery, and craft workshops.

Booking & policies

Are the prices shown net or retail?

Rates are net (wholesale) and reserved for travel agencies and tour operators, who sign in to see them and add their own margin. Public visitors see an indicative retail “from” price; the net rate is never shown outside the B2B Portal.

What happens after I book?

When you book, we receive your booking and start working on it: it shows as “In process” and we let you know of every update. Vouchers are sent once payments have been received.

What is the cancellation policy?

Cancellations follow Clause 7 of the Terms: more than 30 days before the service, no penalty and a full refund; 15 to 30 days, 25%; 8 to 14 days, 50%; 3 to 7 days, 75%; less than 72 hours before commencement or a no-show, 100%. Certain destinations — Patagonia, the Amazon region and high-demand dates in peak season — apply stricter terms, stated in the quotation. The schedule above is indicative: the conditions that apply to each booking are those stated in the quotation, and may be stricter in high season, on public holidays or where a service has its own policy.

Can dates or passenger names be changed after booking?

Amendment requests must reach RUMBO LIBRE at least 72 business hours before the service begins. Changes are managed subject to availability, and any resulting rate difference applies. For private services, a name change may require re-issuing the booking at the current rate.
