Description
Accompanied by a local captain with knowledge of the river's behavior and its seasons, you'll sail calmly while observing the currents, the riverside fauna, and signs of dolphin activity. The tour's main focus is spotting pink dolphins near the water crossing, where the concentration of fish usually attracts them naturally.
Dolphin sightings are a possibility, not a guarantee, as they're wild animals. However, the months between February and May are the migratory season with the highest probability of sighting, due to the river level and favorable environmental conditions. At other times of the year, their presence will depend on the weather and the river's natural behavior.
You can book this tour in the afternoon, allowing you to enjoy the sunset over the Amazon River at no extra cost, a special moment when the sky and water change color as you sail back. This option makes the experience an ideal alternative for couples, offering a quiet and naturally romantic atmosphere in the middle of the Amazonian landscape.
It's a perfect experience for travelers with little time who are looking for an authentic river tour, without long walks or extensive programs. The route can be slightly adjusted according to the water level, river traffic, and wildlife activity, always prioritizing safety and respect for the natural environment.
