Santarém Rivers Tour

We will meet at 9 am at the Tourist Information Centre in Alter do Chão to board a boat heading to Santarém and see the exact point where the Amazon and Tapajós Rivers meet.

During the boat trip, we will pass by Lake Verde, the Enchanted Forest for a 40-minute canoe trip, and Piranha Lake. To refresh, a stop at Moça Beach will be made, where fruit will be provided. We will then head to Crocodile Lake to observe otters, alligators, and turtles.

At around 1 pm, we will arrive at Ponta de Pedras for lunch, featuring fish, meat, and typical side dishes. After lunch, we will explore the Tapari and Negro Lakes.

We will visit the point where the Amazon and Tapajós Rivers meet, allowing participants to jump into the water and feel the temperature difference. Observant guests might spot the friendly, pink Amazon River dolphin. Following our water activities, a 1-hour tour of Santarém will take place to explore its history. We will conclude the day by returning to Alter do Chão, enjoying the sunset at Ponta do Cururu, with an estimated arrival time of 7 pm.
