Tips by GUSTAVO VIVACQUA  

1. Don't miss visiting the Devil's Cave, it is the main attraction of the place.  

2. The waterfalls are in private properties, so it'll be necessary to hire a local guide and to pay a visiting tax. 

3. If you have the time, visit PETAR, the largest group of caves of Brazil. 

4. The road are in awful conditions, so avoid to drive during the night. 

5. There is some nightlife at "Nossa Senhora da Guia" square, but nothing special. 

6. Between December and March it rains a lot. The dirt roads get even worse.
