Pick up at your hotel at 8 AM to Ceasa Port, where you may see a small fish market.

Arriving at a small village named Careiro, we will board our van for one hour and a half, traveling on the BR 319/AM 254 highway where we will have the chance to make a stop to see the waterlilies. After driving on federal highway, we will take the state highway 254 where you may enjoy, the lush, and pleasant landscape.
Then it’s on to Mutuca River, where our regional wooden canoe boat will be waiting for us to go to Amazon Green tours Jungle Lodge. We will have lunch and in the afternoon leave the lodge by speed boat down stream, along the Mutuca River with great view of the landscape to Muritinga Lake for piranha fishing, dolphin spotting and a great chance to see the most exotic birds of region after sunset. In the way back to the lodge you will spot alligators and start to return to the lodge. Sometimes we can see a snake or an owl, that is up to luck. When we come back we have dinner and a free night.
