An excellent way to experience Manaus, especially if you have limited time in the city. The Amazonas Theater and Rio Negro Palace are marvelous, and visiting the markets and the viewpoint gave us a different perspective on the city. The organization was great, with clear communication, and the guide was knowledgeable and pleasant to spend time with. Finally, we wouldn’t have visited some of these places on our own, so the extra safety provided by the activity was very helpful.

We had a very enjoyable time with Daniel. He is very knowledgeable about Manaus, and his English is quite good. He was very flexible with our itinerary. We especially enjoyed a lunch place he took us to that we would never have discovered by ourselves.

Good introduction to the city of Manaus. We visited the banana market, the fish market and the municipal market. We visited the Governor’s house, and lastly the Opera house. Our guide also took us to the Sunday street market.

It was a very nice and interesting tour. Have seen a lot of the incredible Nature. Also the grilled food was very tasty. Just only the distance between the boat and the Hotel in downtown was a little bit long.

It’s a very private but richful trip. A lot of stories about the history about Manaus and the old buildings. And also good fish recommendations by the guide Daniel.
