1st Day: Receptive at the Airport or Hotel -depending on the arrival time of the group- to start early in the morning a long ride on a Land Rover along rural ways in direction to Chapada Diamantina National Park, placed at Bahia contry side. Depending on the time we leave from Salvador, we'll be on time to see the sunset from the top of Pai Inacio Hill. After this wonderfull show, we'll go to an ecological Inn -built taking advantage of rocky structures and caverns- where dinner will be offer at riverside and under a " full of stars" sky .

2nd Day: After a traditional breakfast at sunrise we will practice canyoning way down the river till the amazing Poço do Diabo (Evil's Hole). There we'll practice Rappel from a rock at 21 meter high over a deep hole. After that, those who have enough courage can jump from the different platforms of the fall (20 meters tall, average). After this, we'll continue way down the river to arrive to a canyon called Garganta do Diabo (Devil's throat) to enjoy of its wild strongness and beauty. Back at the Inn we'll have lunch after which we'll go to Pratinha Cavern to take a bath and practice some snorkeling. Following we'll visit Torrinha Grotto with more than 13 km long where is possible to find unique geological structures and cave paintings painted thousands of years ago. After exploring this cavern for three hours we'll be back at the ecological Inn to arrange the necessary equipment for the following day.

3th Day: After having breakfast early in the morning at riverside, our land Rover will take us to Lençois Town where a long, marvelous trekking will start, just equipped with sleeping bags, some clothes and the necessary equipment for 4 days walking and camping. On the first day we'll pass through Riberão do Medio, 20 meters long rock incline going down that ends in a water hole, where we will spend some time. We will continue with our trekking along Serra do Veneno (Poisson Hills) passing by Cachoeira do Sossego (Calmness Fall) to arrive to Palmital Fall where we will camp to spend the night. With the camp ready and firewood enough to cook we'll climb the natural platforms and jump into a water hole created by the fall. This place is beautiful enough to remain in everyone's memory.

4th Day: When we finish breakfast, we will go on our ride in direction to the wonderful Capivara Fall where we will camp and mount a 60 meters long Tirolesa. We'll spend the rest of the day here: some looking for firewood, others cooking, and the most brave could jump from the top of the fall (15 meters tall) meanwhile others jump along the Tirolesa. We will spend the night on this gorgeous place, protected by millions of stars -many of them fleeting ones.

5th Day: We'll have breakfast at the sunrise and take a bath in the water hole to wake up. We'll leave part of the equipment here and will go up the river that runs in the middle of a big canyon; after a few hours we'll arrive to Fumaça Fall. This fall is 400 meters tall; it is hard to say how wonderful it is!! We will have lunch on the wet rocks at the base of the fall and take a bath at the water hole created by the cascade. After this, we'll return to the river to continue our way to Capivara Cascade, where we will spend the night with the sounds of the river and the stars as company.

6th Day: After breakfast, we will start our journey up to the mountain. A few hours later we´ll arrive at the top of an amazing waterfall of 400 meters tall (tallest than the Twin Tower)… Terrific!!! Lay down on a rocky springboard is possible to see the unique show of waters that turn themselves into clouds before the end of the fall. After delight ourselves with this amazing show we'll continue our journey to Capão Valley. This last two hours trekking way will take us to a little town where the Land Rover will be waiting for us. Depending on our walking rhythm, we would enjoy from the mountain a beautiful sunset on the valley. The Land Rover will drive us till our base: the ecological Inn, where we'll take dinner and rest for the following day.

7th Day: After breakfast, the Land Rover will drive us till Lapão Grotto to practice there one of the most radical activities of the hole trip: Bungee Jumping. With our feet tied by an elastic cord, we'll jump from the top of the entrance of this grotto at 60 meters from ground level… AMAZING!!!! After this, we will have lunch at Lençois and will leave on the Land Rover in direction to Igatu, semi-abandon town, famous at the Gold Prospectors Era: here we will visit some ruins and will rest at an Inn.

8th Day: After having breakfast the Land Rover will drive us to one of the most beautiful places in Chapada Diamantina: Poço Encantado (the Enchanted Hole). There we'll enjoy other magnificent show offer by nature that only can be seen from April 1st. till September 1st. during the morning: a light ray enters by a crack reflecting on the 64 meters depth of waters creating a visual effect: the bottom of this lake seems to be on the surface. After a light lunch, we will return by roads parallels to Paraguaçu River until arriving to Cachoeira, historical city where we will spend the night.

9th Day: After breakfast, we will visit the city and will go until a 50 meters tall bridge on the 101 route to realize a radical Rappel. This activity will tell us that the end of the trip is really close. After having lunch in some restaurant, we'll start the way back to Salvador, final point of our adventure.
