4 days in Salvador Itinerary

Nowhere are the traditions of Brazil's African-background community as strong as in Salvador, the colorful, historical capital of Bahia state.

Change things up with these side-trips from Salvador: Praia do Forte (Piscinas Naturais, Forte Beach, &more). There's lots more to do: wander the streets of Pelourinho, take in panoramic vistas at Elevator Lacerda, contemplate in the serene atmosphere at Sao Francisco Church and Convent, and make a trip to Ponta de Humaita.

To see other places to visit, ratings, photos, and more tourist information, go to the Salvador road trip planning website.

In December in Salvador, expect temperatures between 34°C during the day and 28°C at night.
