♡ Save
Dive into the joyful atmosphere of the historical part of Fortaleza on a 3-hour walking tour. We will explore the main cultural landmarks and try delicious local snacks. Don't miss out!
Free Walking Tour Fortaleza has offered a Fortaleza City Centre route regularly since December 2018, always starting at 9:30 AM on Saturday, with Fortaleza's Central Market as a meeting and departing point. The tour takes between 2 hours 30 minutes and 3 hours.
The tour leaves Central Market but really starts from the beautiful Our Lady of Assumption Fortress, followed by Sé Square, Fortaleza Metropolitan Cathedral, Art-Déco Block, Northeast Bank Cultural Center, Lions' Square, Ceará Museum, Ferreira Square, José de Alencar Theatre, Station Square, Tourism Center and Public Walk, with much more amongst these main points.
Note: On Saturday, we offer an alternative route as José de Alencar Theatre is closed during the morning. Only in this case we pass on Ceará Public Archive.
