It provides efficient access to top attractions like the Crystal Palace Gardens, Dona Maria Bridge, and Garden of Morro Lookout. It’s the most budget-friendly option, perfect for those who want to make the most of their time while sticking to a tight schedule.

With two full days, you can explore at your own pace, spending extra time at landmarks like the House of Music or the Real Companhia Velha cellars.
