About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- Cosmopolitan7918730 contributionsLovely tour!Very nice tour, information in Portugees and Englisch. You get a ride in a open doublebus to practical the whole island. The have raincoats when it starts to rain and you dont wanna sit down. You get several stops at the beaches. I had a great time and recommend this for everyone!Written November 18, 2018
- Luisguiper0 contributionsGreat scenic tourHaving few time to know and enjoy the city and its surroundings, I found that this company (offering 4 different tours) would work for my need. I chose the so called Toda Ilha tour, and I have to say that it was very good, even considering that when I joined it the day was cloudy and cold. First of all, the tour guide, Lidia, was a very friendly person who was willing all the time to tell things about places seen on the route. The bus driver, Chico, was helpful, too. Stopovers proposed during the tour were really interesting: beaches, towns and a restaurant for lunch. Tour guided in Portuguese language because all tourists but me were from Brazil. As background of the stories, they played some great Brazilian music with lyrics dedicated to the region. It was a very interesting tour highlighting most important and beautiful places of the island. The two-floored bus was comfortable enough. I did enjoyed it very much.Written July 14, 2018
- bichanoturbo0 contributionsWonderful GuideLidia was very good, and we recommend highly this all-day tour of the beautiful beaches: Campeche, Jurerê, Santo Antonio ...and Lagoa da Conceição. Lucia & MiguelWritten February 26, 2018
- Michał N0 contributionsFloripa by BusFlorianopolis have very complicated public transport. Floripa by Bus is easy and comfortable way to discover this amazing island. I recommend for everyone.Written October 31, 2015
- TheLuux0 contributionsDon't worth it!So, we call to ask if the tour will be in english and they said yes. When I took the bus, they said that the tour will be in portugese but, they will tell the main stuff in english... and actually the guide didn't speak english at all. And the city tour was bad. Lucky that I have a friend in Floripa, because with this tour I would think that the island is f******** ugly !!!!!!!!!Written May 3, 2015
- Judyfriedkin0 contributionsGostei muitoThis bus tour was a great value for the money. We saw quite a bit of the island for a half day tour. The bus was comfortable and fun when you sat on the top tier. You felt part of the landscape as the top tier is open and it was fun to duck under the tree tops. You had a great view of everything. We also listened to nice Brazilian music. The guide was very kind to me. I told her I needed to use the restroom and they stopped the bus and she walked me up a big hill to a hotel and the bus waited for me. I was going to just get off the tour and told them but they waited for me which I really appreciated. She explained many interesting fact to us about "A ilha magica"!Written April 20, 2015
- Globe_trot_a_lot0 contributionsBad Day for Tour Company: Misrepresented English Guide AvailabilityFaulty business practices. Specifically asked if English guide available for tour, was told yes, and then once the bus was moving, was told no. Tour was given in Portuguese and limited English. Friend and I had to fight with staff to get a partial refund. Also, the customer service lacked with other passengers that made my friend and I turn our head. When an elderly person spoke up and said she needed to use a bathroom (no facilities on bus) the tour guide suggested that she use the bushes in the park -- eventually they bent to her will and took her to a hotel; but, they were more concerned with their delay than they were with their customer. On a plus side, there are decent spots to visit with this bus -- I'm sure that when the English guide exists, it's a good tour for English speakers. Brazilian guide was not having a good day and did her best.Written March 1, 2015
- Elisa L0 contributionsExcellent Bus TourThis bus tour was excellent. We went on a Saturday, where we explored the northern part of the island. We were given the opportunity to visit the Turtle Sanctuary (separate entrance fee), where efforts are being made to learn and save turtles. It was lovely. The restaurant for lunch (not included) was up a set of stairs, making it not really accessible for those who may have mobility problems.Written August 28, 2014
- Sergio F0 contributionsWorth every penny!!It's a family owned business, where the driver is the dad and the guide is the daughter. They treat everyone as their own family, and they make sure everyone is having a good time! Aside from that, the boat trip to the Costa da Lagoa was absolutely amazing, with awesome fresh fish served for lunch (not included). I wish I had more time in the city to take their other tours (I believe they have 4 different ones). Take the trip, you won't regret it!Written July 4, 2014
- shafique_za0 contributionsFloripa bus no showWent to Iguatemi Shopping to get the bus. The desk/ kiosk was unmanned. The landline was not working. The mobile went straight to voice mail. To date, nobody has bothered to return our call. Waited at the Floripa Bus Stop, in vain. The bus never arrived! Ten very, very disappointed tourists. Surely a better service may be offered.Written February 19, 2014

Além simpatia e atenção de Rosana e o seu pãe e outro ponto que faz a diferença. Recomendo muito It is really worthy as it gives you a good overview of the island with different tour options. Wonderful and very nice guide -Rosana- pego males you feel part of this family onwed companyWritten February 18, 2014
- Liliane R0 contributionsCity Tour- Floripa By BusWe didn't expect such an anteresting tour. It was on a Sunday, and the guide Rosana was very helpful and knowledgeable. The big green bus is open on the top level and it was a great experience.Written July 30, 2013

Covers a lot of area for a good price. The tour guide was extremely nice and knowledgeable. The driver did a great job as well on the small streets. Make sure you bring a jacket. And if you only speak English just realize you may only get an abbreviated explanation of some of the points of interest. This is only because there is not enough time to explain in 3 different languages while passing a point of interest. But if you have any questions you can just ask the tour guide when you make stops.

What an awesome experience! My husband and I booked this tour so we could see some highlights of Florianopolis and we had such a great day. Our guide was fantastic; so friendly and helpful, and she spoke great English as well as Spanish and of course Portuguese! I loved sitting on the open upper floor of the bus. Our guide was very informative and I really enjoyed learning about Floripa. I am in awe of how much this beautiful city has to offer! The stops are fairly quick so this is a good way to get an overview, then my husband and I plan to go back to our favorite spots during other days while we’re here to spend more time. Overall I highly recommend this tour!

We booked the trip online before arriving in Floianopolis. It was easy to book. Unfortunately, we didn't know it was far from where we stayed and we had to drive a 45 minute drive to take the tour. The tour was excellent. We had a beautiful day and visited beautiful places. One thing to keep in mind is to bring a towel or cloth to put on the seat because after a few hours the seat was so hot that we couldn't even sit down. The driver and tour guide were nice, but I missed the Spanish tour to get to know the places better.
We finished with a big rain and they were very kind to drop us off at the bus station to return us to the hotel. Great end, we had a great time !!!

Great views in an open air bus from higher view angle. Professional trilingual tour guide and bus driver. It’s definitely a unique experience before you explore the island of magic.

Our tour guide - lady, was really nice and helpful.
Tour was ok, lots of time on the bus, but it gives a good overview of the island, and its individual parts. The island itself is extremely beautiful, picturesque nature, lush forest and amazing beaches.

Boa noite.
Chegarei amanhã em Florianópolis vindo de Camboriú e terei que pegar o voo das 19h00, na terça, retornando para meu estado de origem.
Por conta disso há como deixar as bagagens na empresa ( quatro malas de 10 quilos ) enquanto realiza o tour?
