What you can expect

Discover the true essence of Santa Cruz with our Mixed Vehicle Tour, an experience designed for those looking to explore beyond the centre and immerse themselves in the history, culture, and natural beauty of the region.

We'll start the adventure by picking you up at your hotel inside the 4th Ring Road to take you on a tour of iconic sites that reflect the soul of Santa Cruz. You'll feel the vibrant energy of Christ the Redeemer, the symbol of the city, and the mysticism of the Papal Atrium, where history and faith meet.

Then, we'll leave the urban hustle and bustle behind to connect with nature at Cabañas del Piraí, where the murmur of the river and the aroma of traditional food create a unique atmosphere. We'll venture to the beaches of the Piraí River, a special spot where the tranquility of the water and the green of the vegetation will transport you to another world.

We'll continue on to Porongo, a charming colonial town famous for its tranquility and delicious peanut chicha. On the way back, we'll stop at an urban oasis full of history and culture, and visit the Plazuela Calles, the Heart of South America, a symbolic point that marks Santa Cruz's strategic location on the continent. We'll end the tour by immersing ourselves in local commercial life at the Abasto Market, the epicentre of commerce in Santa Cruz, where colours, scents, and flavours will envelop you in an authentic experience.

This approximately 4-hour tour will let you get to know the essence of Santa Cruz in all its diversity. It doesn't include meals or tips, but it does include the opportunity to enjoy an unforgettable experience that will make you fall in love with this vibrant and lively land. Get ready to discover Santa Cruz like never before!
