This was simply one of the most incredible experiences of my entire life. I have already recommended this to friends and family that plan to visit Brazil in the future. We saw a shy river otter, tons of huge fish, and even floated under a tree filled with monkeys. Not to mention the incredible natural phenomenon where the spring that feeds the river comes up from the riverbed under a sand floor and looks like boiling sand. Check out the BBC Documentary Seven Worlds One Planet to see an HD version of this incredible river. The lunch afterwards was incredibly good, and I highly recommend chatting with the employees. I was taken around the grounds at the visitors center and shown all of the different birds that congregate in the trees on the property. Big red macaws and a few beautiful Toucans among many others.

There are several water based attractions around Bonito, this really stood out. After a very tasty buffet lunch a guide took our group of 9 on a forest trail to view about a dozen stunning waterfalls and swim in the sparkling, clear water under several of them including a swim behind the curtain of water in one case. Everything was very well organised, the guide trying his best to speak English to me with a virtually all-Brazilian (Portuguese) group. Highly recommend Elson Junior our guide for his warmth, energy and helpfulness to all members of the group.

In this park you can get a nice walk while seeing different kinds of birds and animals. The beautiful trees may also make your visit even better. If you have kids, stopping at one of the three playgrounds should be a good idea. In this case, I suggest to take a picnic towel and some snacks to spend some time. My daughter loves it.

If you are in Bonito you should not miss this place! after less than an hour drive or so, we arrived at the Reception, had a breakfast with fruits coffee, home made bread etc. And then we started our tour. The excursion took about 4 hours and one walks from one cascade to an other, downhill to the valley - and then 865 steps up again- the waterfalls at this time of the year had little water, but this did not affect the jumps into the refreshing water - The local guide Lu was a great companion- Our kids of 9 and 11 loved the excursion- make sure you have some small snacks with you and something to drink- there is a place half way you can get something. But I would always recommended to have a little snack with you for the kids- After the 4 hours journey we had lunch which is included. Great buffet and don’t miss a caipirinha with some exotic fruits. You might finish the day jumping in the pool at the reception and enjoy the late afternoon there - really amazing trip
