Biking on beaches, Clay roads , and the Amazon from Santarém Cruise Port - we did this from the cruise ship. Three of us. Lovely Brazilian local Tour guides Jappa (Portuguese) and Bruno, driver Marcus (not shown) .Owner Paulo greeted us at Port (not shown) but did not join. A huge 4 hour outing- round trip to Ponte de Padres - all on beaches, sand and clay roads , bush and forest. Swam in small lake called Negro near Tapari beach . Very professional outfit.

Alter without pedaling with Muriki is not Alter! - Sensational! Best experience I had in Alter do Chão! It's already on my list for when I return. In addition to the peaceful route, you can count on the company of Paulo, who was very helpful and wonderful throughout the entire journey. Score a thousand!

Fantastic experience - Paulo took us on a fantastic morning bike ride from Alter do Chão to Ponte de Pedras, where we stopped for lunch. Paulo took many photos, showed us interesting things, and took very good care of us. I would highly recommend the experience.
