Marajó Island day trip from Belém: river boat ride, buffalo farm, and beach time at Pesqueiro or Grande with hotel pickup.
“O que mais gostei: o guia turístico Thiago, em Soure. Muito bom. E passeio foi feito mesmo com 1 único membro no grupo. O que não gostei: não cumpre o roteiro anunciado. Em Soure, não passaria em nenhuma fazenda de grupos (o guia não estava sabendo); só passou porque eu cobrei (e foi só o tempo de uma foto no búfalo). E em Salvaterra, não foi na UTRAN, nem na loja de açaí descritas (o 2º guia também não estava sabendo). E descobri que o preço praticado (em dólar/euro); o mais que o dobro do que o preço que a empresa de turismo local, à qual o serviço foi terceirizado,…”

“Tive problemas com o roteiro: atividades listadas foram colocadas como "brindes" pelo motorista que me acompanhou e outras nem sequer estavam previstas. A ilha de Marajó é linda, mas recomendo utilizar outra agência de passeios.”
Day trip from Belém to Ilha do Mosqueiro: freshwater beaches on the Pará River, warm calm swims, and 1.5 km bridge access.
“La isla es muy linda, tiene lugares muy interesantes. Pero el tour es bastante malo por lo menos no es lo que se esperaba. De las 7 horas te pasas 4 arriba del auto. La primera parada es en un lugar donde esperan que consumas algo. Ves las playas desde el auto. recién al mediodía llegas a un lugar donde además de haber el restorante para almorzar, el cual no está incluído en el tour, recién ahí se puede tener contacto con una playa y con el agua. La cual estaba divina y daba ganas de quedarse ahí. Después de almorzar, Fuimos hasta otra playa que era más linda y…”
Full-day Belém tour with Ver-o-Peso market, Emilio Goeldi Museum, Forte do Presépio, and gem museum, with lunch.
“It covered the history of Belém well. However, had I known that 90% of the Ver-o-Peso market was closed for renovation I would not have traveled to Belem. In reality the entire trip to Belem was a waste of money and not worth the effort.”
