Sao Francisco River Nature Santuary

Informazioni generali

Il programma nel dettaglio

Discover the manifold wonders of Brazil’s deep jungle on this breath-taking tour along its longest river (boat fee not included and must be paid locally).. Float on the blissful waters surrounded by the primal song of beasts and trees and the faint hum of wonderful insects.

Your jungle adventure begins with a trek following the road down to the little town of Piacabucu. The path leading to this quaint village on the banks of the Old Chico is a beautiful walk surrounded by magnificent coconut trees, lining both sides of the path as if protecting you from the Brazilian sun.

Floating on the still waters of the Old Chico awaits your vessel, ready to plunge you into the wild. Hop aboard and slowly drift off towards the mouth of the single longest river in Brazil: the Sao Francisco. Admire nature bloom all around you, overwhelming in its exuberance, vibrant in its liveliness. At times, come across exotic entourages of virgin terrain and, at others, contemplate the shape-shifting sand dunes. Also lose yourself in the sight of one of this land’s most popular destinations: a large sandy beach that welcomes a beautiful variety of migratory birds back from their voyages.

Enjoy an even closer contact with the river’s water by taking a dip or relaxing on the beach. With this tour, the souvenirs won’t just come in the shape of collectable memorabilia; you will take home with you a series of memories and images that you won’t be able to peel away from the back of your mind for a long time.
