Rota do Cangaço Excursion

We'll pick you up at 6:30 am at your hotel in Aracaju for the tour of the towns along the Rota do Cangaço. The first stop is Piranhas, a historic town with colorful 19th-century houses. We will discuss the history of the cangaceiros, particularly Virgulino Ferreira da Silva, known as Lampião.

Next, the tour includes a boat ride on the São Francisco River, showcasing the contrast between the forest's green and the ochre riverside rocks. The cruise will lead us to the Cangaço Ecopark, where you'll have three hours of free time to swim in the river and eat. A short hike to the Grota de Angicos, the cave where Lampião died, is also an option.

We will return to Aracaju from Cangaço Ecopark, with arrival at your hotel around 7 pm.
