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, where we'll find the Xingó Canyon, the fifth largest navigable gorge in the world.

Once we arrive, we'll embark on a boat ride through the Xingó Canyon, during which we'll admire red rock walls that reach up to 50 meters (164 feet) high. You'll be left to photograph these incredible vertical walls from the boat.

As we sail through the turquoise waters of the gorge, we'll see the original sets where the soap operas Velho Chico and Cordel Encantado were filmed. We'll share stories and curiosities about these popular series.

The boat ride then takes us to the Talhado Grotto, where you'll have two hours free to swim in the São Francisco River. This is also the time to refuel with the food you brought.

Finally, we'll sail back to the departure pier and return to Aracaju, with arrival at your hotel set for 7:30 pm.
