    Getting to Olinda is very easy. You can go by public transportation (Bus), or by Taxi (on the meter). Once you have arrived, it is possible to travel on foot. But beware that this is a hilly region, good shoes should be worn, and if you are not in good shape, starting at the top and working your way down will be easier.

    To Olinda from Recife by bus
  • By neverstoptravel on March 3, 2009
  • Olinda Page by neverstoptravel
  • Taxi is always the easiest way. But for some visitors travelling on budget, it's convenient, economic and safe to take a bus in Recife during the day.

    Take the bus #910 Heading Picdade/Rio Doce from downtown Recife or Boa Viagem, it will stop on Av. Sigismundo Goncalves in front of Placa do Carmo.

    The fare is R$2.80/one way.

    ... look at Recife from the Lighter then eat tapioca with cheese in the Alto da Se, visit the corner called 4Cantos, drink juice of sugar cane (you will find everywhere), find a tourist guide to visit all the churches and Monasteries and if you still hungry eat fried fish (agulha) in the coast pubs and for the end a walk to Alto da Se to see the sunset!

    Best place for carnaval ? Le meilleur carnaval ?

  • Many people and guidebooks say that Olinda is the best place to celebrate a peaceful and family carnaval... I've been there some days before carnaval, and it looked like true...

    Beaucoup de gens et de guides disent que Olinda est le meilleur endroit pour vivre le Carnaval, dans une ambiance paisible et familiale... Je ne peux pas l'affirmer, mais ayant ete la quelques jours avant l'ouverture du carnaval, c'avait l'air d'etre vrai...

    The city is noted primarily for its 16th- and 17th-century ornate churches and monasteries and for other colonial buildings.
    It’s a perfect place to relax and know more about Brazilian history.

    Carnaval! Where else...

    The best time to go there is during Carnival. Olinda is proud in saying that it has one of the best and largest carnivals of the World, famous for parties for every taste. The Carnival is crazy. 11 days of reveller and much differently from other cities in Brazil.
    It is virtually impossible to find accommodation during this period unless you book months in advance or know someone of the locals.
