Hello and welcome to Ilha Grande, my name is Bruno and I like to consider myself the luckiest tour guide in the world. I feel very privileged to live and work in this Paradise and it will be my pleasure to show you, not only Ilha Grande's highlights but also its hidden treasures. I would say that I have been guiding people and showing this beautiful island to visitors since I was 13 years old, of course the things were very different back then, Ilha Grande was mostly known for being a former host of a High Security Federal Prison, tourism was far from reality but slowly the beauty of its nature, crystal clear waters, peaceful beaches, breathtaking waterfalls and an unique biodiversity started to change Ilha Grande's fame, in 1994 I was a child that moved from Sao Paulo and instantaneously feel in love with everything in this amazing Island, I wanted to explore and enjoy the place but I was a too afraid of hike alone, partially because of the wild animals but mostly because of stories and myths people used to tell that time :-) so on my days off school I would approach tourists and invite them for a hike, it was a win win situation, I could tell them everything I've learned about the Island and also have some companion for my hikes. Between showing places and also discovering new ones I have virtually explored most of the places worth to know in the Island. Now I have transformed my old hobby and vocation into a profession and became a tour guide. I love to take my travelers to all those special places I have discovered along the years and make their visit to Ilha Grande, the best part of their entire holidays. I always aim to deliver the best tours in Ilha Grande and be the best tour guide for my guests. If you wish to visit Ilha Grande in an unique way, look no further. I can also tailor-made a tour that fits your schedule and special requirements so you can have the best experience in Ilha Grande. You can count on me whether you fancy a more relaxing experience, like walking and boat tours or more adventure activities like camping on remote beaches or multi-days expeditions. Please feel free to contact me with any query, I will be happy to customize the tour experience. I am looking forward to see around, feeling the sand beach beneath our feet.

Go some 3000 years back in history, learn about the first people to live in the Island, see their signs and be amazed about Ilha Grande's important role in Brazilian history. Nature is a spectacle of its own, with forest, beaches and natural pool, history is also everywhere from archaeological site to ruins of the imperial time. Be prepared to get very close to nature as we hike between the best beaches of Abraao's Cove, depending on the sea tides, we may even have to get our feet wet as part of our trail may be a bit flooded. On this tour you will have the opportunity of swimming on the sea, as well as on the fresh water of a natural pool, better to have with you a swimming costume, so you don't miss out on the fun. Activities like snorkelling and bird watching can also be practised during the tour.
Our adventure starts in Abraão Village as we head towards a natural poll, the aqueduct and Praia Preta, a mystical and intriguing beach with patches of black magnetic sand where we can see the remarkable remains of an old prison as well as a archaeological site, where nature and history meets. After a short break, we board on a taxi boat that take us across the cove towards Abraaozinho and Crena Beach, where you can enjoy the delicious local culinary. On our hike back to back to Abraão Village, we will be passing by the beautiful Comprida, Bica and Julia beaches All my tours can be customized, please feel free to contact me if you have any questions -
