Chalana is a typical barge of the Pantanal. In this tour, it is possible to see the birds that make the river bank their home, like kingfishers, cormorants, egrets, herons, hawks, jacamars and many others. Caimans are often seen very close by. With some luck, giant river otters, southern river otters and even an anteater may cross in front of the boat. On this tour, guests can also try fishing for piranhas and visiting the Centennial Fig Tree. During the dry season, it is possible to walk along a trail in the gallery forest in which you will be able to observe the local vegetation up close. Trees like the strangling fig tree, white fig tree, acuri palm tree, piuva, angico, and lianas can be seen.
