Before you go
A little planning leaves more time to enjoy the journey.
Choose dates according to the outings you plan to take. Weekdays outside holidays usually make for a less crowded itinerary. For outdoor activities, check the forecast and confirm local conditions before you go.
We suggest three to five days to see the main attractions with breaks. On a short trip, choose a town as your base and reduce transfers. Reserve extra days if you want to combine other towns in the region.
Use Olímpia as a base for the water parks and urban museums. Compare the distance of your accommodation to Thermas dos Laranjais and the town centre before booking.
Take your trash with you, follow the signs and support local businesses. In natural areas, follow the visiting guidelines.
