Description
Bask in the beauty of the Vila Velha State Park, the main natural attraction of the region. The tour leaves Curitiba at 7:30am to the city of Ponta Grossa (about 100 km from Curitiba), There you'll visit the unique sandstone formations, take a closer look at large craters with exuberant vegetation and groundwater, beautiful rock formations with varying contours, as well as Lagoa Dourada (Golden Pond), which gets its name from its glinting golden waters from the reflection of the sunset. You will also see other great attractions of the Park: Furnas. They are large craters, one of them with up to 100m depth with half of it covered by water and surrounded by beautiful greenery.
The tour continues with a visit to the Witmarsum Colony with a delicious typical German lunch. The village is full of family stores that sell colonial products produced in the region, such as cheese, salami and biscuits.
After enjoying such natural beauty, tourists will return to the bus that will take them to their respective hotels.

Buena elección si es tu primera vez en Buenos Aires. El guía era bueno, aunque hubiera preferido más tiempo para preguntas. Todo muy bien señalizado y con el personal atento. Usamos transporte a la Colonia Witmarsum todo el tiempo y funcionó perfecto. Una de las paradas estaba cerrada ese día y no lo avisaron. Igual lo volvería a hacer.

Nos pareció correcto y bien organizado. Comparé precios antes de reservar y esta era la opción más conveniente. Curitiba International Autodrome superó las expectativas. Un detalle: los asientos no son de lo más cómodos para un recorrido largo. Recomendable en general.

Increíble día
Realmente valió cada peso. La atención previa a la reserva fue muy clara con todas nuestras dudas. Curitiba fue una sorpresa, no estaba en nuestros planes.

Good, with caveats
We enjoyed it a lot, with a couple of small niggles. The guide leaned on a script quite a bit, but explained things well. The venue in Lagoa Dourada has a beautiful setting. We would have liked more variety in the main course. Recommended overall.

Vale muchísimo más de lo que cuesta. Se puede hacer tranquilo sin estar en estado físico. Excelente guía, con muchísimo conocimiento de la historia del lugar. Si están por Curitiba, no se lo pierdan.
