Itinerary in brief:

  • 4 nights in a double occupancy cabin    

 

Day 1: Arrive in Corumba  

On arrival at Corumba airport, you will be met and taken to the port, approximately 30 minutes away, to board the Peralta Boat Hotel.

You’ll be able to check in to your cabin and have lunch; then in the afternoon, you will navigate a section of the Paraguay River. This evening, you’ll be served a welcome dinner with Caipirinha cocktail tasting and a range of regional Brazilian dishes.

Day 2: Sao Joao and the Captain’s Dinner    

Enjoy breakfast on board, then head to a coffee farm - Fazenda Sao Joao - for lunch. The historic Fazenda has been run by the same family for many generations. You’ll spend the day taking part in several activities including a photographic safari in an open-air vehicle and horseback riding if you choose.

Back on Peralta, you will be served the Captain’s Dinner in the evening.

Day 3: Kayaking on the Paraguay River & Pantaneiro barbecue dinner   

After breakfast, you’ll be offered a guided kayaking excursion on the Paraguay River to explore these wetlands in greater depth, before joining a cooking class back on board.

Lunch will be a Brazilian cuisine tasting session, with this afternoon free for you to spend at leisure or take part in pottery and yoga classes. In the evening, there will be a delicious, traditional Pantaneiro barbecue dinner. 

Day 4: Piranha fishing and indigenous tribe visit  

Keep your finger out of the water as you go freshwater Piranha fishing today! After lunch, you can choose to pay a visit to a local indigenous tribe, or stay and relax on the deck and soak in the sun. In the evening, dinner will be a typical indigenous experience reflecting the flavours and cuisine of the tribes.     

Day 5: Depart Corumba      

Enjoy breakfast and the free morning. After lunch, you will be taken to the port where you will disembark and connect with your onward travel plans.  

 

We suggest visiting the Pantanal during the dry season that runs from April to October.
