Very interesting and informative your. Cordial staff. Big value for the cost. Meet point was a little bit confusing, would help if POC’s at meeting point have a banner or a flag to identify themselves,

Great of you know Portuguese

Darya_M, Mar 2026
There were a lot of activities, for the price it’s amazing. Lunch was great and had a lot of delicious things! The tour is approximately 6 hours and you visit bunch of places. However if you don’t know Portuguese I would suggest something else because there is a high chance you will not understand anything. This tour has a majority of Brazilians which is great, but excursions were not translated and I really had a hard time understanding what they are saying.

Response from Host, Mar 2026

Muito obrigado pelo seu feedback detalhado! Ficamos muito felizes em saber que você gostou da variedade de atividades, do almoço e que considerou a experiência um ótimo custo-benefício — isso significa muito para nós.

Great Day on the Amazon!

Traveler_2, Mar 2025
Just got back from a wonderful day in the Amazon with Nathan and the rest of the crew! We met in front of the Coreta Restaurant inside the Adolpho Lisboa Mercado. We walked across the street to the boat. Our first stop was to swim with the pink dolphins There is an extra fee of 20R if you want to swim with them. We then headed to the Solimoes River to see the 2 rivers mix together. The next stop was to fish with no hook to catch a pirarucu. We had lunch and walked for a bit on a walkway to see a monkey, an alligator, the large lilly pads and a sacred rubber tree over 100 years old. Our final destination was to the Aldeia Yukuro indigenous tribe. It was fascinating to see where they live and they performed customary dances. We had a group of 40 or so and didn't feel as though we were crowded. I wouldn't pay for a smaller group. Nathan took exceptional care of us! Lunch was a buffet of chicken and pirarucu.

Response from Host, Mar 2025

Thank you for your kind words! We're delighted that you had such a memorable experience exploring the Amazon with Nathan and our team. We strive to provide well-organized and immersive tours, and it’s great to hear you enjoyed the activities, from swimming with pink dolphins to visiting the indigenous village. We’ll be sure to share your feedback with Nathan, and we hope to welcome you on another adventure soon! 🌿🐬✨

We're thrilled to hear that you had such a positive experience! Thank you for your kind words about the organization, timekeeping, activities, and especially our guide Billy David. We look forward to welcoming you again on future adventures!

Bang for buck but would have paid more for smaller group experience

Tam_P, Feb 2025
The tour does specify maximum group size 61 and it certainly felt like we were close to capacity. It’s apparent that boat was consolidation of multiple tour operators as people had different wristbands. Because of large group size, tour felt impersonal and guide mostly spoke Portuguese as majority on board were Brazilians. He did do abbreviated English translations. The botos, fishing and indigenous village visits all felt gimmicky and not at all representative of real Amazonias. On the positive side, there was a lot packed into the tour and the buffet lunch was delicious. I was also happy to spot several monkeys on the “nature walk.”

Response from Host, Feb 2025

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We truly appreciate your perspective and apologize if the group size made the experience feel less personal. We understand how important it is to have more intimate interactions during tours. We’ll take note of your comment regarding the language and will explore options to improve multilingual support. As for the activities, we aim to offer a variety of experiences. But we’re glad to hear you enjoyed the lunch and the nature walk – spotting monkeys is always a fun highlight! Your insights are incredibly valuable, and we will continue working to enhance the overall experience for future guests.

Great Trip with a Large Group

Sam_G, Feb 2025
A number of activities are included as well as lunch. It is value for money. But there is a big crowd of 60 people.

Response from Host, Feb 2025

Thank you so much for your feedback! We’re glad to hear that you enjoyed the variety of activities and lunch. We truly appreciate your insights. Thank you again for sharing your thoughts, and we hope to welcome you back soon!

A++ Amazonian Adventure

Iyshia_K, Aug 2024
Very well organized, informative, and fun! The tour was even packed with a little more than what was listed on the itinerary, at the time!! Definitely a gorgeous, memorable day out! 20brl to swim w/ pink dolphins 10brl to fish for Arapaima 🤩 The lunch buffet offered a great variety of foods to choose from. (Drinks not included) Only 1 ATM @ the meet-up area, with crazy lines, but all stops also accepted credit/ debit cards👍🏾

Response from Host, Aug 2024

Thank you so much for your kind words! We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed the tour and found it both informative and fun. It’s great to know that the extra experiences exceeded your expectations and made your day memorable. Thank you also for the note about the lunch buffet. We’re pleased you liked the variety of foods. We’re sorry to hear about the long lines at the ATM. We'll look into additional ways to improve this aspect for future tours. We're glad to know that the credit/debit card options helped alleviate some of the inconvenience. Thanks again for sharing your experience with us. We hope to have the pleasure of hosting you again!

I wont recommend

Marcos_A, Jul 2024
The visit to indian tribe was very nice. But the experience with Pirarucu fishing and Boto was not nice. Also the lunch doesn't look very good from sanitary point of view. Also we can witness people with animals from the florest that looks suffering and with willness. It's realy a crime.

Response from Host, Jul 2024

Thank you for taking your time to give us feedback about your visit. We are happy to know that you found the visit to the indigenous tribe enjoyable. However, we deeply regret that your Pirarucu and Boto fishing experience, as well as lunch, did not meet your expectations. We are committed to providing safe and ethical experiences for our visitors and wildlife. Regarding your concern for forest animals, I would like to clarify that these actions are the responsibility of riverside communities close to the indigenous community you visited, and we do not support such practices in any way. Your observation is very important to us and will be taken into consideration to improve our programs and practices. We appreciate your comments and will work to ensure that all activities meet animal health and welfare standards. We hope you will give us another opportunity in the future to provide you with a more satisfactory experience.

Worth it !

A taste of the Amazon

TANYA_K, Dec 2023
It was a fantastic experience from whoa to go. Communication from the agent was the best ever, very thorough and language wasn't an issue. The experience itself was incredible. I would recommend this tour to anyone wanting a taste of the Amazon.

Muito obrigado pela sua avaliação! Ficamos muito felizes em saber que, mesmo já tendo feito esse passeio outras vezes, esta experiência foi a que mais gostou. É uma satisfação enorme saber que você e sua família aproveitaram o dia e que o trabalho do nosso guia fez a diferença na viagem. Esperamos receber vocês novamente em uma próxima aventura pela Amazônia! Um grande abraço da equipe Marujo Turismo.

Nothing included, just the terrible food

LoideMara_V, May 2026
They tell you that interacting with the bot is optional. In practice, that means you'll be charged if you choose to see him. If you want to play it's double. Otherwise they will charge you ALL outside without clear notice. Outside the food that's included, but horrible. Other than that, knowing the Amazon was worth it. I would recommend this tour only to my worst enemies.

Response from Host, May 2026

Olá! Agradecemos por compartilhar sua experiência. Lamentamos sinceramente que alguns pontos do passeio não tenham atendido às suas expectativas. Gostaríamos de esclarecer que a interação com os botos realmente é opcional, e algumas atividades extras no local possuem cobranças feitas pelos próprios comunitários responsáveis pela atividade e tais informações estão no site como opcional. Sobre a alimentação, sentimos muito que não tenha sido do seu agrado, sempre o restaurante recebe bons elogios quanto a qualidade.

Very good walk,...

Roberto_V, Mar 2026
Very good tour, allowing to visit various sights that exist in the surroundings of Manaus. The only negative point was the delay of about 30 minutes to start the ride.

Bernadete_P, Oct 2025
The walk is well worth it. We were in the place where the pink boots live, then in the indigenous village, we dined and even took a walk along a bridge over the forest. We also witness the encounter of the waters of the River Negro and Solimões. Guide Neto very friendly.

Nice trip with good value for money😃

Marlies_D, Oct 2025
It was a top value experience!! The tour guide Neto did a top job! Unfortunately, the meeting point on the map is not precise and as it is in the middle of a market. Since almost no one speaks English here, it is very difficult to ask exactly where the meeting place is. It would be nice if the travel agencies are better contacted.
Auto-translated

Response from Host, Nov 2025

Vielen Dank für Ihr Feedback! Wir freuen uns, dass das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis und Reiseleiter Neto überzeugt haben. Gleichzeitig entschuldigen wir uns für den ungenauen Treffpunkt auf der Karte – besonders in einem belebten Markt ohne Englischsprachige ist das natürlich schwierig. Wichtig zu erwähnen ist, dass beim Ausflug nur der Bootsführer Englisch spricht, was die Kommunikation am Anfang zusätzlich erschweren kann. Wir arbeiten daran, die Beschilderung und Informationen der Agenturen klarer und eindeutiger zu gestalten.

Imperdible

Il tour è organizzato...

Dario_G, Dec 2024
Il tour è organizzato esattamente come descritto. Sono puntuali ed il pranzo buono, in stile buffet brasiliano. È un tour più per famiglie brasiliane che per stranieri. Se sei straniero e vieni a Manaus, devi fare le escursioni di 3,4 o 5 giorni. Questa è davvero un giro "domenicale".

Response from Host, Dec 2024

Grazie per la tua recensione! Siamo felici che tu abbia apprezzato l'organizzazione del tour, la puntualità e il pranzo a buffet. Comprendiamo che il tour possa sembrare più orientato verso le famiglie brasiliane, ma speriamo che tu abbia comunque goduto dell'esperienza. Per chi cerca un'esperienza più immersiva e avventurosa, come hai menzionato, le escursioni di più giorni potrebbero essere una scelta ideale. Speriamo di rivederti presto per un'esperienza ancora più completa!
