Duration4 hrs
Starting from R$ 498,00
per personIn about 4 hours, this circuit brings together an 800-meter trail to the meeting point of the Salobra and Azul rivers, a walk through the riparian forest, snorkeling in the Rio Azul, a 2 km boat ride and a visit to the Rio Azul Bubbling Spring Pool, before returning for a regional lunch.
The route was designed for those who want to vary the scenery without entering into a strenuous activity: riparian forest, river confluence, boat and bubbling spring appear in the same morning or afternoon.
➡️ At Bonitour, we recommend this tour for families and travelers looking for a guided route, with organized operations and low physical demand.
The circuit begins at the reception area, continues to the meeting point of the Salobra and Azul rivers along an 800-meter trail, and then continues for another 820 meters of light walking through the riparian forest to the Rio Azul spring.
This sequence matters because the activity does not depend on a single stopping point: you move forward from stage to stage, with short travel stretches and different landscapes within the same attraction.
In the aquatic section, the snorkeling covers 820 meters in crystal-clear waters, with underwater vegetation visible along the route.
Then, the boat covers another 2 km in the transition between the Cerrado and the Pantanal, a concrete environmental feature that sets this tour apart from other snorkeling experiences in the region.
We know very well the profile of travelers who make the most of this route: those who like to observe a changing environment and prefer route variety over an exclusive focus on large quantities of fish.
The route ends at the Rio Azul Bubbling Spring Pool, reached after a short 200-meter trail. There, the bubbling spring creates the effect of keeping the body from sinking, and this sensation is a central part of the tour, not a secondary add-on.
