About me

Hello, I'm Dirk, your travel guide in Salvador and Bahia! Welcome to this magical city that seduced me from the very first moment, over 30 years ago now! Salvador and its people welcomed me with a big smile and open arms and made me feel like a true local. or soteropoletano ... and after all these years I am passionate about it! With my passion for traveling and discovering places and people, my personal international and Brazilian travel experiences, my general background, knowledge and culture, my expertise in local tourism (I am a licensed tour guide in the state of Bahia) and my passion for Salvador and Bahia. I look forward to welcoming you here in Salvador and Bahia and being your tour guide to get the most out of your visit and vacation here.Salvador is the capital of Bahia, one of the most interesting, beautiful and diverse states of Brazil, in the Northeast. Salvador was also the first capital of Brazil at the time when the country was a Portuguese colony and became the most African capital of Brazil. I will show you the best that Salvador and Bahia have to offer to enchant your visitors. I was born in Belgium, where I grew up, studied, became an engineer, started working and traveling outside the European borders. On one of these trips I visited Brazil, including the city of Salvador, fell in love with this fabulous tropical country and its people and decided to live and live in this bdquo;magicalldquo. Salvador. I am an open-minded citizen of the world, communicative, friendly, courteous, respectful and honest. I speak fluent English, French, Dutch and Portuguese and have basic knowledge of Spanish and German. Come and experience this magical and fantastic city and let me be your local guide, you will love it!
