Salvador

Bahia, Brazil

4.5 (0)

Overview

Municipality of Bahia state, Brazil. It sits on the northeast coast, which is warm and sunny almost year-round.

Why visit: Rio's beaches and hills, São Paulo's restaurants and galleries, Salvador's Afro-Brazilian old town — each a different country's worth of city.

Things to do

›Eat at a per-kilo lunch buffet — cheap, excellent and how Brazilians eat
›Use apps for taxis rather than hailing, especially after dark
›Carry a little cash and leave the rest at the hotel
›Ask locally which neighbourhoods to walk in at night; the answer changes by block
