Important information

Suitable for all physical fitness levels

The State of Ceará is the only region where it is not mandatory for the tour guide to have more than one language. Our guides speak fluent Portuguese and Spanish and basic English. Remembering that ours is a tour based on an experience in contact with nature and wonderful beaches, we guarantee an excellent activity for each of our customers.

The guide provides the main information in three languages (Portuguese, English, and Spanish); however, the rest of the crew and individuals involved in the activity predominantly speak Portuguese.

On days with the highest tourist influx or in the presence of particularly heavy traffic conditions, we may adopt the use of specific meeting points for customer pick-ups. This choice is made to ensure a more efficient organization of the tour, reducing waiting times and the inconvenience caused by traffic. Therefore, we invite our customers to read this note carefully to be informed and prepared.
