    Recife airport.
    by cachaseiro
    Recife has recently had a new airport made and it´s extremely nice.
    It´s a 3 floor airport with lot´s of good cafes and lot´s of good shopping options.
    There is also a very helpful tourist information on the ground floor right by the arrival hall.
    Should you ever have a layover in Recife airport then don´t worry.
    It´s a nice place to spend a few hours.

    A friend introduced me to a taxi driver that uses to work for him, and is a trusty person. "Seu" Roberto, more than an excellent professional was a friend, a guide, and a bodyguard. Always charging much less than the table in display at my hotel's lounge, he took us everywhere, suggesting sights, stops, restaurants, patiently waiting all the time we wanted and watching our security. Respectful and kind, he quickly became more than a good professional, a trusty friend. We used his taxi to... everything! It was his idea taking us to %L[http://members.virtualtourist.com/m/9eab8/1722d2/
    ]Igarassu, that we would miss without his support. He also checked the tide hour, to suggest trip scheduling. Absolutely perfect.

    My best tip about Recife will surely be: don't hesitate - phone Roberto. And if you tell him that it was Avelino's suggestion you'll get a prompt smile.

    Ask about buses with air-conditioner
  • Tip Rating:

  • Recife Page by julinhoY
  • There are some lines in which the buses are smaller but more comfortable, with music, air conditioned and passengers are not allowed to travel standing up.
    There is a very small difference in the price, but more than worthy.
    As an example, I suggest line 42, which leaves from the airport, goes all along an avenue paralell to the beach and goes to Recife Antigo; so, this line serves many of the touristic spots of the city.

  • Most will fly into Recife from other locations. There are direct flights from US airports, I really don't know what it is like from other parts of the world.

    We had exceptional experiences utilizing the long distance bus system which is as good as any in the world, perhaps better.

    I suppose you could also jump ship if you happen to come in that way.
    We do a lot of walking when traveling but it is not difficult to use the bus system in Recife. It is efficient and they run often.

    You can usually negotiate a half day tour with a taxi driver, they are receptive esp. if you offer to have him take you to his favourite restaurant.

  • If you haven't any friend or any help from Tour agencies, you better take a cab, 'cause it is cheap and more confourtable than taking a bus... but be smart about the prices!

    To Olinda ...

  • Recife Page by rafgys
  • There are city buses going to Olinda, and if they don't go close to where you are (let's say: Praia Boa Viagem) ... you can take advantage of the "integração" system, where you just do tranfers instead of paying more than one fare.

    Buses to Olinda costs R$ 2.45.

    To Porto de Galinhas ...

  • The bus costs R$ 5.45 and it takes an hour and a half.
    You can take it in the 'rodoviária' ... or further south by the BR-101 highway.

    To Maceió (AL) ...

  • By rafgys on November 5, 2007
  • Recife Page by rafgys
  • The bus takes forever (some 4 or 5 hours to cover little more than 200 KM), unless you're lucky enough to catch a direct service (which still takes a lot).
    The ticket costs R$ 25 to 30, depending on where you catch it.

    My trip to Brasil was aboard a tri-continent cruise on Holland America. It is a two day journey from Salvador de Bahia de Todos Santos and is a comfortable and entertaining way to travel. There were many Brasilians on the boat as this cruise originated in Rio de Janeiro and ended in Lisboa Portugal. I was surprised that the main language on the boat was English.

    Optional tour into town
    by kaloz
    Recife has a closed port, no strolling around, so transportation is provided by bus or private tour to get out of the port area. You can sign up for a ride by a shop, if you visit their espablishment, or take a bus into Santo Antonio. Our departure was delayed for the removal of an ailing passenger.
