Hiring an agency, a guide or a tourist transport company makes a difference in Pirenópolis, especially if you are without a car or want to visit more distant waterfalls on dirt roads. It also helps on long hikes and for understanding the history of the historic centre with someone who knows the town.

When it is worth hiring

  • Without a car: the waterfalls and the Serra dos Pireneus are outside the urban area. Agencies and transport companies arrange the trip. See Pirenópolis without a car.
  • Distant attractions: Cachoeiras dos Dragões is about 40 km from the centre, partly on dirt roads, according to the attraction’s official website.
  • Long hikes and groups: a guide helps manage time and safety.
  • Cultural tours: guided tours of the historic centre explain the churches, mansions and festivals.

How to choose safely

  • Check Cadastur. Agencies, tour guides and tourist transport companies must be registered with Cadastur, the Brazilian Ministry of Tourism’s register. It can be searched publicly.
  • Ask for the itinerary in writing: what is included (transport, tickets, meals), times and the cancellation policy.
  • Ask about safety: equipment, trail experience and what happens in case of heavy rain.
  • Confirm whether tickets are included: several attractions require advance purchase or booking.
