Xingó Canyon Day Trip

One of the largest navigable gorges in Brazil awaits you on this day trip to the Xingó Canyon, a spectacular gorge of the São Francisco River that will captivate you from beginning to end.

Day Trip Details

We'll depart at 6:30 am from your hotel in Aracaju towards the São Francisco River, home to the Xingó Canyon, the fifth largest navigable gorge in the world.

Upon arrival, we will embark on a boat ride through the Xingó Canyon, where we will witness red rock walls up to 50 meters (164 feet) high. You will have opportunities to photograph these impressive cliffs from the boat.

As we navigate the turquoise waters of the gorge, we will also view the original locations where the soap operas Velho Chico and Cordel Encantado were filmed, accompanied by stories and curiosities about these series.

The boat ride includes a stop at the Talhado Grotto, where you will have two hours to swim in the São Francisco River and enjoy food you may have brought with you.

We will then return to the departure pier and head back to Aracaju, with an expected hotel arrival of 7:30 pm.

Hotel Pickup

This tour includes pickup at hotels located in the central district of Orla de Aracaju. For those in other areas, we will suggest an alternative meeting point.

Note that guests at the Makai Hotel need to select pickup from there when booking.
