Indian Village and Meeting of the Waters Tour

This tour cost us £112- which is 850 reais EACH. So we spent over £200. Almost every activity had an additional cost associated with it. For this kind of money, I expect amazing things, especially because I highly doubt that the Brazilians on this tour paid the same amount of money as us. Firstly, the driver was 1 hour late picking us up. We stood outside our hotel in the heat for 1 hour waiting for him. When he came he was screaming down the phone. Secondly, we were the last unto the boat. So when we got unto the boat, they tried to squeeze us at the back in a little corner with 7 people. Very uncomfortable. I had to ask the tour guide to change our seat. The tour was meant to have 35 people max, and the boat had exactly 58 people. Not as advertised. For 1700 reais/£200 , I'm not expecting an experience like this. I had to talk to the tour guide to get us a new seat. The tour guide gave up his own seat. Thirdly, every stop on this tour is a tourist trap. And at every instance, they extract additional money from you. Apart from swimming with dolphins, all other experiences have hidden extras. The stops are also quite crowded and you have to share small platforms with a swarm of people. Fourthly, the tour is hardly in English. The ratio of English to Portuguese commentary is like 75% to 25%. The English is mostly need-to -know instructions with a few other small bits of information. For the quantity of money that we paid, it was not worth it and we do not recommend it to other foreign travellers.

I did the full excursion, with the boat swim. Very nice excursion, beautiful places, very good guide and very good experience
