The Expedition lasts 6 days and 5 nights

Meeting point: Belém (PA)

Recommended airport: Aeroporto Júlio Cezar Ribeiro (Val-de-Cans / BEL)

Difficulty level: Light

This expedition was designed as a true immersion into the island. It is not about passing through quickly, it is about truly being there.

Over the course of nearly a week, you experience Marajó through local families, riverside living, traditional food, Marajoara pottery, and a vibrant culture expressed in music, dance, and storytelling.

Even the date was carefully chosen to coincide with one of the most beautiful times of the year, when flocks of scarlet ibises take flight, painting the sunrise sky in brilliant shades of red.

Scarlet ibis flight, carimbó, and riverside living in a true immersion.

What our days will look like

Day 1

Arrival in Belém

We meet in Belém, the starting point of our expedition. You can arrive at any time, as the idea is to begin our journey at a relaxed pace.

Take the opportunity to visit Ver-o-Peso, the largest open-air market in Latin America, stroll through Mangal das Garças, and sample the local cuisine. Trying authentic açaí here is practically a ritual.

The next morning we depart early by speedboat.

The best experience in Alter do Chão!

Without a doubt, it was the best experience I have ever had! The expedition was simply incredible from beginning to end. Impeccable organisation and an extremely attentive team who know the region deeply and respect the local nature. Every detail was thought through with great care: breathtaking landscapes, wonderful freshwater beaches, trails, cultural immersion and that feeling of living something unique. Beyond all the beauty, I felt safe the whole time and very well welcomed. You can tell when work is done with love and responsibility. I recommend it without hesitation to anyone who wants to experience the real Alter do Chão, far beyond basic tourism. An unforgettable experience!

The most incredible carnival experience in the world

It was my first solo trip and I could write a whole book about how wonderful this experience was. Ana Carms has an approach to travel that is very different from the conventional one, a proposal of real immersion in the local culture and way of life, always respectfully. In 2026, being without internet for 5 days may sound bizarre and frightening, but in the end you come back grateful and wanting to stay longer. There is a clear reason for that disconnection, and the result for me were the great friends I made on this trip, which certainly would not have happened if we had our phones. The care the women of the agency put into every detail is admirable, and you feel all that affection in the details of everything you live there. Trust them and just go! A special thank you to Seu Sabá's family, who make everything even more magical with their care, from the delicious food to Bob the dog, who welcomes you with licks when you arrive on the little boat. Thank you for everything, ANA CARMS team, I already want to collect every expedition you offer.
