Brazil · JUNGLE & RAINFOREST TOURS

Review of Paraty’s 6-hour jeep tour to Pedra Branca, Tobogã, Poço do Tarzan, and a cachaça distillery, with practical tips.
“the activity was very fun. The guides were very friendly, organised and talkative. The waterfalls were wonderfull also the restaurant picked for lunch was very good and the portions were huge. We were a big group (of four cara in total travelling) so in some places we had to wait a little bit longer for everybody to enter the jeeps but that's okay.”
Review of Manaus’s 12-hour Amazon jungle tour, with trekking, pink dolphins, piranha fishing, local lunch, and nighttime caiman spotting.
“The trip was excellent! We especially appreciate the type of work with dolphins which was completely different from our experience with Amazon safari. The dolphins with in Jacare are happy and free. For us it was also perfect that we could compare the wet forest (where we were the day before) and the dry part of the Amzon forest which we saw mainly on this trip. I will fully recommend this trip everybody who loves nature and is able to do trekking. Thank everybody who help organize this trip and especially fantastic guide Fabio!”

“Excellent experience. Our guide and tour operators were excellent. They proactively contacted me well in advance through WhatsApp and told me what to get. On the day of tour Rafael our tour guide was there on time and was informative and helpful including getting my wife & younger one across the slightly tricky but fun rock climb part. He had all the required equipment for climb.”

Review of Manaus’s 3-day Amazon adventure, with canoe trips, piranha fishing, jungle walks, lodge stays, meals, and practical tips.
“The activities were exceptionally awesome. Fabio, the local guide, is beyond excellent, he made the tour delightful, engaging and super memorable! True legend! Highly recommended if experiencing the wildness of Amazon is on you bucket list! Only one tip - DON’T LEAVE ANY CASH IN YOUR ROOM! Getting cash stolen was the only bummer during my stay! Otherwise, it could be one of the best experience I’ve ever had. Even though encountering such annoying and disgraceful incident, I still believe most of the locals are kind and genuine!”
Review of the Presidente Figueiredo waterfall tour from Manaus, with jungle walks, swimming, transport, guide quality, timing, and practical tips.
“The waterfalls are really outstanding, totally recommend seeing them. The tour is around 11 hours including the car trip from Manaus. Lunch is included and it's very good. The guide speaks 80% English, not a lot of information is provided during the trip. There is a 30 min hike included, you should have adherent shoes for it.”
Explore Manaus by boat, see the Meeting of the Waters, pink dolphins, jungle lilies, lunch, and cultural stops for $55.
“We had an amazing time on this tour! It was my first time trying Viator but it worked well and the pick up and drop off at the hotel was very convenient. Swimming with the pink dolfins, seeing the incredible meeting of the rivers and walking in the jungle were some of the many highlights of the tour. Although the tour was advertized as English it was 95% in portuguese. And although it said half day we were only back at 3pm, but that was not a problem for us.”

Review of a four-day Amazon adventure from Manaus with jungle walks, piranha fishing, wildlife trips, local culture, meals, and practical tips.
“I stayed in the lodge for four days. The lodge is cheap and basic. The canoeing tour is just a boat tour in a small motor boat. So, don't expect canoeing by yourself. The early sun rise tour doesn't exist. You can see the sunrise at the lodge, but there is no tour. The other hiking tours are nice. The camping in the jungle is a great experience. It is not needed to bring a mosquito net, because there are almost no mosquito's. Just a spray is enough.”
Two days in the Amazon near Manaus with jungle hiking, dolphins, piranha fishing, sunrise, Indigenous culture, and the Meeting of Waters.
“It had always been a lifelong dream of mine to visit the Amazon jungle and thanks to Fabinho and Milton it became a dream come true. I loved all of the activities we did from boat riding, swimming with dolphins, seeing the meeting of rivers, going piranha fishing, getting to know the local village, and going alligator spotting. Fabinho our tour guide was knowledgeable and ensured that I had an unforgettable experience, he truly made it one of the most memorable trips of my life. I did the overnight stay and he made sure I was comfortable which truly made all of the difference as I was traveling solo. I…”
