Experience Bahia

Bahia’s history is one of pain, resistance, and cultural power. Founded in 1549, Salvador became Brazil’s first capital and was profoundly shaped by the legacy of enslaved Africans, whose strength, traditions, and survival helped form the Bahia we know today. From the historic streets of Pelourinho to traditions like capoeira and samba de roda, Bahia remains one of the most important centers of Afro-Brazilian culture in the Americas.

What makes this tour so special?

This edition of IX Experience is especially meaningful because Ingride Banzo (founder of IX Experience) was born and raised in Bahia. She will guide you through a cultural immersion shaped by her own roots, connections, and lived experience, offering a perspective that is both deeply personal and authentically local. It's how Ingride would spend her time in Bahia.
