Estrada Real 5 Day Self-drive Tour
|
We are not offering this tour anymore.
This self-drive package offers a fascinating discovery along the main cities of Minas Gerais state: the historical cities of Ouro Preto and Tiradentes. Originally mining camps, the gold rush quickly transformed these towns into treasure houses, not only of gold, but - more permanently - of fine Baroque art and architecture. Elegant colonial churches, steep cobbled streets, ornate mansions and even the historical atmosphere have all been preserved to make the cities one of the most impressive colonial legacies of the Americas. |
