Brazil
Established in 1648, this destination holds the distinction of being Paraná's oldest city, adorned with tales of exploration and discovery.
Paranaguá, meaning 'Great Round Sea' in Tupi, unfolds as a captivating destination steeped in history and natural beauty. At its heart lies the renowned Port of Paranaguá, a bustling hub that connects the city to Curitiba and stands as one of Brazil's largest ports. The city's origins, dating back to the arrival of European settlers in 1549, are interwoven with the narrative of Hans Staden and the establishment of a chapel dedicated to Nossa Senhora do Rosário. For an island escape, venture to Ilha do Mel, a paradise off the coast celebrated for pristine beaches, crystal-clear waters, and lush landscapes. Explore the Atlantic Rainforest, visit the historic Farol das Conchas lighthouse, and delve into the enchanting Gruta das Encantadas, where the echoes of a mermaid's song linger. Paranaguá's culinary scene beckons at the Mercado Municipal, a vibrant market where the sea's bounty unfolds in stalls laden with fresh seafood. Immerse yourself in the local culture, savoring delectable dishes like moqueca paired with Brazil's signature caipirinha.

All Daytrip bookings are one way. If you need a return trip on a different date, simply book this as a separate one-way trip. For a same-day excursion, please request a custom trip. If you plan to stay more than a couple hours, we still recommend booking two one way trips so you're not paying a driver for waiting.

For the Daytrip Pool shared shuttle, we offer 3 ticket options when booking: Non-refundable, Flexible with cancellations 24-hours before departure, and Super-flexible with cancellations up to 15-minutes before departure. While you can cancel your booking for a full refund up to 24 hours in advance, changes requested under 36 hours are subject to driver availability, especially in the high season.
