About this activity

Experience the Wild Cantão on a 3-day expedition through the Cantão State Park, in Caseara, Tocantins, along the banks of the Araguaia River, where the Cerrado meets the Amazon.

The adventure includes ecological trails, boat trips, and wildlife spotting of giant otters, river dolphins, and rare birds. It’s the perfect destination for those seeking adventure and a deep connection with nature in one of Brazil’s richest biomes.

A dive into nature

Cantão surrounded me with its sounds, its scents, and the life pulsing all around. Paddling through igarapés, watching the birds, and feeling time slow down was a deep experience. A place that invites you to be truly present.
