    Grand day out.
    David_J, Apr 2024
    The whole day was great. Our young guide (Dennis) was very knowledgeable and a cheerful chap to have around. The group size of 10 was just right and we all bonded well. The fish at lunchtime was delicious too. Excellent experience, well worth the money.
    Great tour of Amazon Jungle
    Behnam_A, Apr 2024
    This was an amazing tour. Everything was very well organized and the communication from Milton was great. The tour guide, Fabio, was awesome and very knowledgeable and helpful. I would highly recommend this tour with this operator.

    A day of two parts.....
    Sue_S, Mar 2024
    This was an amazing and memorable long day out in the jungle - once it started properly. We were picked up at our ship near the Port of Manaus by the tour 'rep' who told us we had to go and pick up two other people who were also on the tour. As it happened both myself and the woman in the other couple had the same first name and I am not sure if thats what caused the confusion which happened next, or whether there was just general confusion! It felt like the latter.... After the two couples were safely in the car along with the driver and guide, (quite cosy) we drove to the local harbour, where there was some discussion between the 'rep' in our car and another guide who had arrived, and each couple was put onto a motor launch 45 minutes after we had left our original pick up point at the Port, which seemed like a long time to me. We then began to cruise up the Rio Negro and after about 5 minutes and a bit of chat and phone calls with presumably the other 'rep' and checking on the actual tour I had booked, we were told that we were on the wrong launch and would have to swap. This meant catching up with the other boat, and doing a swap from one launch to the other, in the middle of the Rio Negro, by climbing fairly unceremoniously from one the other. We are quite seasoned travellers and fairly agile so just took it in our stride, but I am certain that others would not have found it so. Eventually we arrived after 40 minutes in the correct launch at the floating house where we met our guide, Fabinho. From that point onwards, the day was wonderful. He was knowledgeable, friendly and adapted the day to suit the weather conditions. We travelled on his boat to go piranha fishing, then saw the pink dolphins, had a tasty lunch back at the floating house, followed by a siesta in hammock, and then the jungle hike, for 2 hours finally ending with a search for cayman in the dark. It was a great experience of the jungle and a chance to connect with nature. At the end of the long tiring day, which we thoroughly enjoyed with Fabinho, we waited for 40 minutes in the village where the tour ended, for our pick up by car which was another 40 minute drive back to Manaus. So this was quite onerous especially as we had not been told what was going to be our mode of transport back to Manaus. Boat/car? Who knew? The jungle tour is described correctly in the information, but what is not described clearly enough is the process to get to and from the start and end point in the jungle. I think if people know what to expect, they are better able to appreciate what is happening. It was the seeming confusion that did not lend itself to a smooth start and end to the experience. Thats the main reason it's a 4 star rating not a 5 star.

    A must do if you’re short on time
    Maya_C, Mar 2024
    Our guide Fabio was excellent! He was so knowledgable and engaging. Each section of the tour was really well thought out and we had a great day from start to finish. We didn’t feel rushed at any point and we felt like we got to experience everything to its fullest potential. There were 2 languages spoken across our group and Fabio was able to speak both really well - making sure nobody missed out on any information! We had the best time!

    Do it!
    Zain_S, Feb 2024
    Fabio was the perfect tour guide and took us around the Amazon, going out of his way to make our experience memorable and engaging. We initially went for a jungle hike, where we saw tarantulas, monkeys, anteaters and lizards. Swimming with the dolphins was an amazing experience as well as catching piranha & cayman. Not to mention all the beautiful plants that flood the jungle. Could not recommend more, and Fabio was the best, 11/10.

    Great day, too much sun for my white skin.
    Laurent_G, Jan 2024
    Fabio was a great guide and explained everything. Note that you will be away from your hotel for over 12 hours this is a long day. Note also that in total you will spend at least 2 hours on a small boat with no access to any shade at all, and the equatorial sun is unforgiving, even with a lot of sun protection cream, I was quite sunburnt.

    Such an incredible experience! A must do!
    Helen_S, Dec 2023
    What an incredible experience! This day long tour far beyond exceeded our expectations! I would give it 6 stars if it was possible. Fabio was the most amazing guide. He was so knowledgeable and kind. The day includes a hike in the jungle where we saw monkeys and a tarantula, a delicious lunch including local fish, swimming with pink dolphins, fishing for piranhas and alligator spotting. Life long were memories made. It is a long day but it’s worth every minute!

    Amazing day in the forest!
    Erika_B, Aug 2023
    Picked up at the hotel, taken to the start of the tour and walked a whole day in wonderful amazin forest! Denjjs, our guide was very young and cheerful, we spent a nice day as he kept explaining cool stuff about the forest, trees, indigenous habits to hunt and collect food, healing herbs and showing us hidden creatures (tarantulas, caterpillars, monkeys...) For lunch we set a fire and Denjjs and the his colleague cooked us an amazing rice and chicken, a very tasty healthy and "natural" way of eating! We spent a lot of time navigating with a small boat among trees floating in the Rio Negro waters, very suggestive! We fished piranas and looked for caymans at night ( we saw a few eyes lurking in the dark) Very recommended! We didn't see all the animals but it' natural as it's real wilderness, not a zoo :)

    Amazing tour with an amazing tour guide with so much knowledge
    Rodney_B, Aug 2023
    Fabio our guide was so knowledgable. A real pleasure to have him guide us through this momorable experience. The tour was full on for 12 hours and every minute was filled with WOW. If you’re coming to the Amazon and Manaus and don’t have too much time, this company is excellent. From the initial booking to the experience itself, they truly excelled and delivered a brilliant experience. It was so good we cancelled our next day trip and rebooked it with Milton. Thank you Fabio for the lifetime memories. From holding a baby alligator to seeing the most incredible sunset from a boat to eating at Fabios home in the rainforest to swimming with the pink dolphins. Thank you Thank you Thank you

    Patricia_A, Aug 2023
    We had a great experience. Our tour guide, Fabio, knew very well the area, the water ways out of the river into the jungle, excelled in communicating in both Portuguese and English. The company has lots of respect for the client, picking us up at right time, fun interaction with all involved in the tour. Milton made sure we had all we needed to enjoy our time.

    Amazing Day in Jungle
    Evgeny_L, Aug 2023
    I We really enjoyed our day in the jungle. Our guide Fabio was very knowledgeable , friendly and had great sense of humor. He patiently answered all our questions, told us about local flora, fauna and history of the region, cooked a delicious meal on open fire, drove us everywhere on his boat, taught to catch piranhas, and showed the amazing sunset in the middle of the river. We also stopped to swim with pink dolphins, which is an unforgettable experience. We also had a chance to speak with Milton himself, who is an extremely nice and interesting person. Highly recommend this tour, you won't regret it :)

    The Best Tour to Experience the Amazon
    Michael_S, Aug 2023
    By far, this is the greatest tour offered in Manaus if you want to experience the Amazon Rainforest. You have the entire forest to yourself here. We never once saw another tourist. You are immersed deep in the Amazon with monkeys, sloths, piranhas, tarantulas, and more wonderful flora and fauna. If your goal is to get the true Amazon experience, this is the tour for you.

    Nice but long day in the jungle!
    Diego_F, Jul 2023
    A whole day means that! Be prepared for a bit more of 12 hours in the jungle, this includes trekking, many hours in a basic boat but if you are in Manaos this is likely the experience you are looking for!! About the tour vendor, the staff is great and they punctual!!
