Day Trip Details

We'll pick you up at the indicated time from your hotel in Aracaju to head towards the São Francisco River. This river, also known as the Velho Chico, is one of the most famous bodies of water in northeastern Brazil.

When we reach the riverside area, we'll take a pleasant boat trip along the São Francisco River. On this journey along the Velho Chico, we'll see the locations where some famous series and films, such as Deus é Brasileiro, have been shot.

We'll continue the boat trip to the mouth of the river, where it flows into the Atlantic Ocean. This is a spectacular natural wonder where we'll see mangroves, dunes, coconut trees and river islands. Of course, you'll be able to take photographs of all these landscapes from the boat.

After admiring the mouth of the river, we'll continue our journey and make a stop where you can take a refreshing dip. This swim is sure to whet your appetite, so we'll head to a restaurant where you'll have an hour free for lunch.

After lunch, we'll sail back to the point where we set sail and finally return to Aracaju. Arrival at your hotel is scheduled between 11 and 12 hours after pickup.
