Recife's old town sits where two rivers meet the sea — and this hunt takes you through the history that grew up around that meeting point.
This app-led scavenger hunt takes you through Recife on foot, using phone-based riddles to guide you from one landmark to the next. No guide, no fixed start time.
• Stand at Marco Zero, the symbolic ground zero of Recife Antigo and the point from which all distances in the city are measured
• Walk the legendary Rua do Bom Jesus, one of Brazil's oldest streets and the former centre of Dutch colonial trade in the Americas
• Visit the Igreja da Madre de Deus, a baroque church that has watched over the waterfront since the 17th century
Around 2 hours, any group size, available in Spanish, English, and Portuguese.
Where the Atlantic meets the rivers, Recife's story begins — and this tour tells it from the start.
