How to get to Itacaré? You have to go from Salvador airport to the São Joaquim ferry terminal. The trip takes about 40 minutes. At the São Joaquim ferry terminal, you will buy tickets for the crossing and board the ferry that makes the hourly crossing to the island of Itaparica. These tickets are only sold at the terminal. There is no advance purchase or reservation system. They are very cheap. The trip takes 1 hour. When you arrive at the Bom Despacho ferry terminal in Itaparica, you will disembark and inside the terminal there is a small bus station (called Bom Despacho) where the buses that go to the cities in the south of Bahia are parked. One of these buses runs between Bom Despacho bus station and Itacaré bus station. To return from Itacaré to Salvador, the route is reversed.

Is there a private transfer between Salvador Airport and Itacaré? Yes, Bahia Transfer e Turismo offers private ground transfers to Itacaré. In this option, our operators take passengers from Salvador Airport (or any other point in the city) to their hostel or hotel in Itacaré. If there are no obstacles on the road (such as construction), this transfer can take up to an hour less. It is more comfortable, but also more expensive. However, taking into account the price differences between plane tickets to Ilhéus and Salvador, the cost of a private transfer may be worth it (especially for large groups of passengers). To learn more about this option, request a budget.
I would like to share my first experience with the catamaran, excellent crossing, comfortable, now I won't cross again unless I'm on a catamaran, congratulations to everyone involved, the crossing is perfect!
Fast and courteous service, the service was provided by Carlos Eduardo who made it quick for my mother, my fiancé and I, ensuring that we arrived in time for our flight, but as we were staying a day earlier in Salvador, he made it quick for the van driver to drop us off at the hotel.
Excellent attention from the entire company, mainly from Carlos Eduardo. I have purchased transfers in February 2020 and due to the global Covid issue I suspended it. After years, September 2024, I decided to travel to Morro do Sau Pablo and they have recognized my credit in full. I fully recommend Bahia Transfer e Turismo. Very grateful....Marcela from Argentina.
Excellent Service and I always found it easy and accessible to hire them from Argentina. I have traveled with them on several occasions. Super recommended.
Excellent service. Punctuality and waiting. Car in perfect condition. Everything as agreed by email. Ease of doing everything online without problems. Highly recommended.
Through the agency, I bought the ferry tickets to Morro de Sao Pablo, the attention was immediate, there was no space for the time I needed to travel, they quickly offered me other options and in less than half an hour I had everything resolved. Very expeditious
I looked for it on Chat GPT and it didn't fail me. Everything is excellent. Serious. Compliant. Communication is a luxury. They respond by email and WhatsApp almost immediately. The exact times. And top-notch service. I recommend it to my friends who go to Brazil. Thank you Carvahlo for your attention!!!!!! Congratulations on the level of the company.
