Living with the Indians

We are the first travel business in the world to get permission to visit the indigenous peoples in the Xingu national park and the Xavantes reservation in the state of Mato Grosso. In early March 2010 we went to the reservation of the Xavantes and Xingu Indians (Parque Indigenas do Xingu), and after long and arduous negotiations we received all documents necessary from the Brazilian Indian agency (FUNAI) and the other authorities involved in Canarana, Mato Grosso. Here we would like to present a few of our tour programmes to you.
