Summary: The guide is excellent, helpful, fun, communicative and removes all doubts. Super recommend! As for the restaurant Âmo, left nothing to be desired. Bad service, cold food and does not meet expectations for the price. Not to mention that we left our table with clothes because we had already booked lunch and when we returned was occupied by another family. I do not recommend and would not return.

Summary: I went with the Whel Tour to Pipa with the guide Gustavo (Gugu). He's very good people. Gave up a mim for us. The tour consists of a stop at the Lagoa dos Guaíras. On the optional catamaran, you can go to a sandbank (depending on the tide) and take a bath in the Lagoa. Those who are not interested, go straight to the support point on the beach of love. There the structure is good, has a pool and bathroom. The beach is accessible only by stairs (more than 150 steps). At the end of the tour, we passed the Dolphins Avenue, the main street of Pipa.
