Morning light spills across the Bay of All Saints as a private SUV eases away from Salvador’s waterfront. The driver threads through wide avenues into the compact gutters of Pelourinho—cobbled streets that still hold the echo of carriage wheels and brass bands. Your guide points out carved portals, falding church towers, and painted façades while the city’s Atlantic breeze nudges open a lunchtime appetite for moqueca and vatapá.
