Xingó Canyon Day Trip
Description
A remarkable navigable gorge in Brazil invites you to embark on an unforgettable day trip to the Xingó Canyon, a stunning formation along the São Francisco River that promises to enchant you throughout the experience.
Details of the Day Trip
Our adventure begins at 6:30 am as we leave your accommodation in Aracaju, heading towards the São Francisco River and the Xingó Canyon, recognized as the fifth largest navigable gorge across the globe.
Upon arrival, we will commence a scenic boat journey through the Xingó Canyon. Here, you will marvel at the imposing red rock cliffs that tower up to 50 meters (164 feet) high, providing breathtaking views perfect for capturing with your camera.
As we glide over the turquoise waters of the canyon, we will pass by various filming locations for the hit soap operas Velho Chico and Cordel Encantado. Along the way, we will share fascinating stories and trivia related to these beloved series.
The boat ride will take us to the Talhado Grotto, where you'll have two hours to enjoy the São Francisco River. This time is ideal for swimming or relaxing, and it’s also an opportunity to savor any food you've packed for the outing.
