Full description

On the first day, be picked up from your hotel and head into the jungle. Go trekking for 3 hours, discover the local fauna and flora, and learn some survival techniques. From here, see the beautiful pink river dolphins and enter the water to get up close and personal with these creatures.

After lunch, go for a paddle and canoe along the river. Then, experience piranha fishing before sunset. In the evening, go out in the dark and search for caymans and other nocturnal jungle creatures with your guide. Spend the night in a local river dweller's home.

Begin the second day early to watch the sunrise. After breakfast, go for a ride to visit an indigenous tribe and learn about their history and culture. Stop to buy some souvenirs here if you like and, depending on the season, ride to a local sandy beach for a swim.

Next, travel to January Lake, where you'll have lunch at a floating restaurant. Visit the floating village of Catalão and the Pirarucu fish farm with the biggest freshwater fish with scales on Earth. See the lake with water lilies, and depending on the season, ride through the flooded forests.

Finally, witness the phenomenon of the Rio Negro and Amazon rivers running side by side without mixing their colors. Return to your hotel around 5 PM.

l'esperienza è stata eccezionale da 5 stelle e lode, Bakarau e Raimondo sono guide incredibili. Le attività e il posto sono davvero speciali.. Però la barca con cui parti e torni da Manau è troppo piccola ed appena il fiume si è ingrossato abbiamo rischiato grosso.

Milton Fernandes from Amazon Private Tours (& his colleagues Fabio & Raymundo) were very professional, organized & attentive in conducting my 2-days Amazon tour. I was short on time, but thanks to them I managed to see all what I wanted to see (& more !) in just 2 days. The tour far exceeded my expectations. They speak English & Spanish fluently, & they always responded to my many inquiries about Manaus that were not related to the tour itself. I highly recommend them

Great trip! Definitely worth choosing. Two days full of attractions: from watching the wildlife to Manaus sightseeing from the boat. Swimming with dolphins was amazing! Guides were great, they told us a lot of interesting things. They speak fluent English, which is rare in Brazil ;) The great advantage is the small group - the guides are flexible and you can take the most of the trip.
