The guide is an attraction in addition to the Açude. With only 18 years of age and the manner of a dedicated student, it is Túlio who explains to tourists the details of the origin and economic importance of the dam. One of the curiosities is the relationship of the name and the guide safely explains "As the construction was between two mountain ranges, this reminds one of a 'garganta' (throat) which is also called 'gargalhos', which was modified to Gargalheoros", he said. "This young man knows a lot. Everything he says, you can believe", commented Prof. of History Flávio Mottinha Macêdo admirably.
Entretanto, uma novidade contribui para o fluxo constante de turistas no local: trata-se do terminal construído há 3 anos. Em meio à "garganta", o visitante dispõe de área de camping e de lazer, cinco lojas de artesanato, um restaurante e uma pousada – e tudo por R$ 150 no fim de semana. "É mais uma vantagem do Gargalheiras", conclui Sérgio Enilton.
