Important archeological site with cave paintings made by the prehistoric men.
The Serra da Capivara National Park, and the work of almost 50 years of archaeologist Niède Guidon with the communities that live near its boundaries are marvels that I highly recommend. However, the Park positions itself basing only in narratives of the past, that is, all you will see and hear refers to “extinct” peoples only, who left us their wonderful cave paintings. In so doing, the Park excludes the current discourses of present-day Amerindian descendants who lived, until recently within its boundaries. Important: you can only visit the park if you are accompanied by a local tour-guide, which is a good thing as this prevents vandalism and provides employment to locals. However, be extra careful with those local tour-guides: make sure you know exactly what you want to see on a given day and make sure he commits to taking you to those places - I advise you to buy beforehand a booklet at the Museum in São Raimundo, as soon as you arrive, it lists all you can see in the Park - and make sure your guide commits to guiding you for the whole day (from 7:30 to 17h), as they often invent false excuses to shorten their working day, such as, “there is a Jaguar with a baby here”, “there are ferocious bees there”...

We (couple + 2 teens) took the private boat tour, which included the sunset visit to the Guara (red bird) sanctuary. Fantastic day !
