Traveler reviews
The experience
The driver picks you up from your hotel or airport in Porto Alegre and handles the drive to Gramado, about two hours north. From there, the day unfolds through a sequence of stops you help shape: hydrangea-filled gardens, the town's central church lit up at night, chocolate factories, and the Caracol Waterfall viewed from a walking trail through the surrounding forest. The itinerary names Santa's Village, Hollywood Dream Cars (where you can ride in a Ferrari), and the Canela Automobile Museum as options, each catering to different interests: families with children, car enthusiasts, or those drawn to the region's German and Italian heritage.
What changes across the three purchase options is group size: you can book for up to 4 passengers, up to 8, or up to 14. The vehicle itself stays air-conditioned and equipped with WiFi, bottled water and a professional driver trained to speak English, Spanish or Portuguese. Restroom facilities on board depend on which vehicle size you select. Something to confirm when you book if that matters for your group.
The seven to eight hour window gives you real time at each stop rather than a rushed sequence of photo points. You're not locked into a fixed itinerary. The driver knows the region and can adjust based on what interests you most, whether that's the parks, the museums, the churches, or the cafés. The return to Porto Alegre happens in the late afternoon or early evening depending on when you started.
Is this one for you?Book the smaller group option if it's just you and a partner or family, and the larger one if you're traveling with friends. The private vehicle means the cost splits across your group and the driver adjusts the pace to suit everyone. The bilingual driver and flexible itinerary work best if you want to see both towns without renting a car or following a fixed schedule.
