What are people saying about Manaus

Konstantin_A, Sep 2026

This is a standard...

This is a standard itinerary for the river tour from Manaus, but the key difference was a small group. We were just 5 people, and we had a boat for our mini group. Thus swimming with dolphins and arapaima "fishing" was really enjoyable without any crowds.The itinerary was nicely scheduled, a pace was relaxing. I liked the tour overall.

A Whole Day in the Jungle

Os Botos!

I had a wonderful time on this tour! It was an incredible day packed with activities, but there was also plenty of time to slow down, relax, and simply enjoy being out on the Rio Negro. The tour company was extremely communicative and went above and beyond to help when I ran into an issue getting to the meeting point on time. I loved our guide - as a local to the area, he had a lot of knowledge that he graciously shared with us. I was in Manaus for work and only had one free day, so this was the perfect way to experience a little bit of Amazonia in a short amount of time. I also loved being able to join a group as a solo traveler.

Awesome experience

This was an incredible experience. We learned about medicinal plants, saw the beautiful caves and swam in the waterfalls. We took pictures of plants and trees we have never seen before and heard birds of all sorts. Lunch was delicious. Lots of trekking up and down. Recommend renting the galoshes; they are worth it. Love to t!

Fantastic Tour; Unforgettable Experience

We had an incredible tour with Rodolpho. He went out of his way to make sure we felt comfortable and well taken care of throughout the experience. We didn’t even realize the tour was completely private at first, which made it even better, we had the freedom to move at our own pace and spend as much time as we wanted at each stop. Rodolpho introduced us to some amazing local Brazilian favorites, which really added to the authenticity of the experience. The walk through the jungle was unforgettable. While we didn’t see many animals, we were surrounded by stunning nature and were able to take some beautiful photos. Overall, I had absolutely no complaints and would highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to safely and genuinely experience the Amazon rainforest.
