Introduction

4x4 Pick-up Tour - the system is tough!Considered one of the most beautiful destinations in the country, Lençóis Maranhenses combines kilometers and kilometers of white dunes dotted with freshwater lagoons, sometimes blue, sometimes green. The gateway to paradise, protected by the status of National Park, is the municipality of Barreirinhas. From there, the exploration of the scenery begins, which becomes even more exuberant between June and August, when the lagoons are fuller.

Day 2: June 9 (Tuesday) - São Luís/ Historical City Tour

São Luís do MaranhãoAfter breakfast, departure by tourist bus for our city tour in São Luís. São Luís was founded by the French in 1612, but it was the Portuguese who gave the capital of Maranhão its trademark - its beautiful architectural style.

It was the Portuguese who left as a legacy the more than three thousand mansions and houses that spread across the streets and squares of the Historic Center, in the Praia Grande neighborhood.

Tombada by Unesco, much of the colonial architecture dating from the 18th and 19th centuries takes you on a journey to a past of prosperity and ostentation. Lunch included. Free evening.

Porto Preguiças ResortAfter breakfast, we will continue on a comfortable tourist bus to the city of Barreirinhas, known as the "Capital of Lençóis." As the largest municipality in the region, Barreirinhas is the main gateway to the National Park of Lençóis Maranhenses.

In the evening, tourists and locals head to Avenida Beira-Rio, with restaurants, bars, and craft stalls. Expected arrival in Barreirinhas around 2:00 PM. Accommodation at the excellent Porto Preguiças Resort. Free afternoon and evening.

The pick-ups take passengers to a certain point in the park, as motorized vehicles are not allowed on the dunes. From there, it is necessary to walk the route. The journey between one dune and another takes about 10 minutes of walking.

Day 5: June 12 (Friday) - Lençóis Maranhenses - Atins

Lagoa in AtinsAfter breakfast, we will depart for our tour to the village of Atins. Bathed by both the Atlantic Ocean and the Preguiças River, Atins is a fishing village that is the eastern entrance to the National Park of Lençóis Maranhenses. Here, the rusticity mixed with the beautiful landscape seems to give another rhythm to the days. In Atins, the streets are all made of soft sand, a place practically without cell phone and internet signal.

Atins is an ideal place to relax and disconnect from routine. With the discovery of Atins as a haven for sports such as kitesurfing, windsurfing, kayaking, and stand-up paddle, the village has also attracted many foreigners who have invested in building charming inns. Return to the hotel in the late afternoon. Free evening.

Boat Tour on the Preguiças River - VassourasAfter breakfast, we will depart for our tour on the Preguiças River. We will board a speedboat, known in the region as a voadeira boat. Thus, we begin a beautiful nautical tour along the Preguiças River, enjoying its beautiful palm trees, mangroves, and igarapés.

In 30 to 40 minutes, we will arrive in Vassouras, where we will see the small Lençóis. In this location, one can marvel at small dunes, lagoons (during the rainy season), and an exuberant flora and fauna. On the banks of the river, we have a support point in rustic huts covered with straw, where we can enjoy a delicious cold coconut water to refresh ourselves.

Another attraction of the place is the friendly monkeys that seize every opportunity to steal a banana or cookie from the unsuspecting tourist. Little Monkeys in VassourasNext, we head to the village of Mandacaru. The main attraction of this fishing village is the Preguiças Lighthouse, standing 35 meters tall with 160 steps, from where we can have a panoramic and magnificent 360° view of the region. A great place to buy handicrafts, especially bio-jewelry and hair tiaras.

Then we proceed to Caburé Beach, a peninsula between the river and the sea, where we will have lunch (not included). At the location, an optional quad bike tour is offered that travels along the beach until reaching the meeting point of the Preguiças River with the sea. This tour lasts a total of 30 minutes.

Important Notes

The information gathered below covers part of what is stated in our General Conditions. It is essential to read the entire document.

Cancellations, Transfers, and Customer Cancellations

The CONTRACTED PARTY will reimburse the Contractor the amount due, calculated on the total actually received by the Contracted Party, excluding the amount of the commission retained, which should be dealt with the Travel Agent, as well as administrative fees and amounts already paid to suppliers.

In the occurrence of any of the mentioned hypotheses, the following administrative fees will be deducted from the total amount charged for the tourist package, in the following proportion:

  • When the cancellation occurs 30 (thirty) days or more before the departure date of the trip: 10% (ten percent)
  • When the cancellation occurs 29 (twenty-nine) to 21 (twenty-one) days before the departure date of the trip: 15% (fifteen percent)
  • When the cancellation occurs 20 (twenty) to 1 (one) day before the departure date of the trip: 30% (thirty percent)
  • If the passenger does not show up at the time and place set for the start of the trip, 35% (thirty-five percent) will be charged

In addition to the fees and penalties described above, amounts already paid to suppliers for securing reservations, duly proven, will be deducted as expenses, since the Contracted Party is only an intermediary in the hiring of tourist services, holding the received amounts temporarily, as it depends on third parties for the effective execution of these services, such as air, maritime, and road transport, as well as accommodation, reception, restaurants, and other contracted services.

For both road and air excursions, date transfers or refunds for unused segments will not be allowed.

Trip abandonment - Once the excursion has started, the passenger who abandons it for any reason will not be entitled to any refund for paid and unused services.
