On this journey, we embark on one of the most important routes in the history of Brazilian road transport: the traditional line between Garanhuns (PE) and Recife (PE), operated by Auto Viação Progresso.
Far beyond a simple bus trip, this route holds enormous historical value. It was precisely between Garanhuns and Recife that João Tude de Melo started, in 1934, the first regular bus line in the Brazilian Northeast, giving rise to the company that would later become Auto Viação Progresso, founded in 1932.
Throughout the video, we show the entire experience of the trip, the details of the bus, the service offered by the company, the route traveled, curiosities about Progresso, and the importance of this route for the development of road transport in Brazil. You will also learn a little about the trajectory of João Tude de Melo, one of the great pioneers of passenger transport in the country.
If you like buses, travel, history, and road documentaries, this video was made for you!
