Alter do Chão 2027
The Amazonian Caribbean experienced at a slow pace, sleeping in a riverside community, swaying in a forest hammock area, and celebrating Piracaia with the locals.
January 07, 2027 until January 12, 2027
The Expedition lasts 6 days and 5 nightsWe don't just pass through Alter do Chão, we stay. You sleep in riverside communities, taste grilled fish right by the riverbank with the forest singing around you, and walk trails among trees that have witnessed centuries of history.
Along the way, there are warm river dips, hammocks for guilt-free resting, and conversations that go late into the night. Local traditions are shared by those who grew up with them, authentic and unhurried.
All with the care, safety, and warmth that define our way of traveling.
The real Amazon, at the pace of those who live there.
