Comprehensive Recommendation
If you're looking for a quick and relatively comfortable option, I recommend taking an airplane from Curitiba to São Luís, with a connecting flight to nearby Sitio Novo. While it may be slightly more expensive than ground travel, it is significantly faster and offers more convenience, especially for long distances. Make sure to compare prices early to secure the best deals.
However, if you prefer a scenic view and a lower cost, the bus option is viable, albeit much longer. Prepare for a lengthy journey but enjoy the landscapes along the BR-101 and BR-226.
