The experience

How do you see three different towns in the Itajaí Valley without renting a car or piecing together your own transport? This tour handles the driving while you move through three distinct shopping destinations in a single day. You leave Balneário Camboriú in a shared air-conditioned vehicle and stop first in Ilhota for roughly an hour to browse local shops and get a feel for the town.

Blumenau is where the itinerary slows down. You'll visit the Frog House, Froschhaus, a well-known local landmark with knits, clothes, souvenirs, colonial and regional products, coffee and artisanal goods displayed in a space built around Germanic architecture and Blumenau's cultural style. After that stop, the group moves to Villa Germânica, where you have free time to explore, shop and eat lunch until roughly 1:40 PM. The guide then takes you through the central region, passing Praça 15 de Novembro and the Municipal City Hall, before departing for Brusque around 2:20 PM.

You arrive in Brusque by 3 PM with free time to shop until 5:30 PM, when the return journey to Balneário Camboriú begins. The schedule can shift slightly depending on traffic and operating conditions. A Portuguese-speaking guide is with the group throughout. Parking fees are covered, but shopping, meals, drinks and any attraction tickets are on you.
