Getting around in Fortaleza:


To get around town you can choose between bus, taxi, rental car or even visit many sites on foot. For those staying on the waterfront, a short taxi ride may be enough to get to most of the sights. If you rather have autonomy and comfort, renting a car may be the most viable alternative.
