Very cool, only lasts a short time. Let's go when the sun's down fishing piranhas and then see jacarés. Jacarés are pretty shy and as soon as they see us jump in the water, but the guide managed to catch a Maybe the price could be a little better for the period of time and distance from the place
It was exceptional! Alexandre in particular did a fantastic job and was really flexible in dealing with delays to an earlier tour we were on.
This tour is not private as advertised, we were paired with a group of 6 strangers. Also the guide was very nice but spoke zero English so really couldn’t ask any questions. The description also says it includes going to the meeting of the waters, which did not happen. Piranha fishing was well over an hour and no one caught any piranha, definitely would have preferred seeing the meeting of the waters and less time spent fishing for nothing. The alligator was cool and the night boat ride was nice but overall not sure I’d recommend, there are probably better tours out there.

We strive to provide accurate details in our tour descriptions, and we will review this information to avoid future misunderstandings. Regarding piranha fishing, we understand your frustration at not catching any. It is important to note that this activity is completely dependent on nature and, although we would like to guarantee successful fishing, it is not always possible due to natural factors. We are pleased to hear that, despite this, you enjoyed the night boat ride and the caiman watching. Regarding the guide's language, our team of guides is composed of professionals with official degrees, trained in several languages and with extensive experience. We regret that on this occasion communication was not fluent in English, and we will make sure to reinforce this aspect in our ongoing trainings.

We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you again and offer you an experience that meets all your expectations. Best regards, Tangol Tours
Contrary to the Amazon river tour, which was crowded with participants on a daytime cheapie, I was the only one who was available. Head to the other side in a slightly smaller boat and enjoy piranha fishing until dark. After sunset, use a flashlight to illuminate the riverbank and look for crocodiles. When illuminated from a distance by a flashlight, the crocodile's eyes glow in an interesting way. The crocodile was hard to catch that day, but the Guide persisted in searching for it and caught a small crocodile to show us. It was fun to experience something more Amazon-like than a tour like an amusement during the day.
Was an awesome experience with excellent guidance by Antonio. The logistics of moving around it were pretty good as well.
Overall, it was an amazing experience!! 10/10 recommend even if alone - contrary to the description neither guide nor driver spoke english (Portuguese only) + BUT they tried very hard to keep the Portuguese simple so that you could understand them a bit + very knowledgeable guide with amazing knowledge of the fauna and area + got to hold a small and big Kaiman (nothing beats that) + piranha fishing was an experience (expect bites every 5-10 min) (Piranhas were released afterwards, fishing for fun) - not suited for people that are repelled by hurting animals (aka Piranhas) + I was super wary because I went to the tour alone, but got a super safe private tour with hotel pickup and drop-off + guide and driver super nice / TAKE MOSQUITO REPELLENT AND LONG CLOTHES!! Tour is during prime time of Malaria mosquitos and even through long clothes and doused in insect repellant, I've got bitten repeatedly
Great experience, caught some piranhas and held a small caiman, we enjoyed it. Night ride on the boat was excellent too.
Exhilarating. Real wild nature. In the dark with a hundred eyes looking at you. Holding a caiman just plucked out of the water by the brave guide. Piranha fishing.
