ANA_M, Sep 2025

Recommended tour.. pleasant day filled with natural and cultural beauties! Imperdible the tour to the Park of Sculpture Stones of Silence - spectacular guide- paradisiac place beautiful writings! The mill garden is a round the tunnel of time-the couple of immigrant children guide all the walk! The Immigrant Park.. is another charm apart : typical immigrant houses .. a nature and lush flowers .. Finally visit the agricultural property of the Sanders family .. where you can see the fruits in nature and all family production of sweets , juices and jelly .. Imperdible! Finally hundreds of the small town is another demonstration of Germanic beauty in Brazil

A experiência foi maravilhosa. Um mergulho na história. Um passeio que não pode faltar no roteiro de quem visita Gramado. Apesar do tempo não ter colaborado muito (dia bastante chuvoso), Douglas fez toda a diferença, tornando o passeio ainda mais agradável com sua companhia.
