Descripción del Tour:

We will leave Manaus at 09:00 am in our land transport to Ariau, and then take a 45 minute boat ride to the home of the Trible Sateré Mawé.

Upon arrival at noon, we will have a typical indigenous lunch, where the main ingredient is ants, a food that is not lacking in jungle meals. Then, the members of the tribe will explain to us everything about the Indian pharmacy, the natural medicine produced by the leaves and barks of the trees, valuable information that most of us Westerners have forgotten.

Then, we will help the Indians to look for the famous "Tucandeiras" ants to start with the presentation of the ritual, which we do not recommend anyone to try, except the Indians.

During the ritual, we will have the opportunity to film, take pictures and dance with them.

At the end of this fascinating experience, we will say goodbye to start the return to Manaus.
