Top Manaus Power Boats

With two days, so much is possible in the Amazon. On this tour, you’ll start in Manaus, seeing both the natural and human side of this world-famous river—think visiting former rubber plantations, seeing an Indigenous village, and staying overnight with a local family alongside jungle-trekking, fishing for piranha, spotting cayman, finding medicinal plants, and more.

Explore the Rio Negro and Januari Ecological Park by boat on this half-day expedition from Manaus. Travel by riverboat to the meeting of the waters, where the Amazon and the Rio Negro run side by side for a few miles and you can glimpse both pink and gray river dolphins. Learn about the native Brazilian people who make their lives along the river, the ecology and wildlife of the area from your local guide. Disembark at the Januari Ecological Park for a walk through the forest, then tour the narrow creeks via motorized canoe to see the Vitoria Regia water lily. Eat lunch at a floating restaurant before returning to Manaus.
