After having picked you up from your hotel we will drive for about one hour west from Manaus by car to reach the region called cachoeira do castanho. where we embark our motorized canoe (very simple canoe that we amazonian people use every day to go to work etc.) we will reach the jungle where we start a 2 and a half hour hiking, where our guide will show you many medicinal plants, teach you how we provide our shelters and many other possible things we may see along the way. P.S: We can't promise that you'll see any animal because it's nature and they are free in the wild. But we can assure you that they are there and eventually with luck we can spot them. For this part you must wear closed shoes and long pants, any type of shirts are okay. Also note that during our rainy season (October to July) there are many mosquitoes, and the terrain is muddy because of the rain.

After a jungle hike we will head to our floating house where we will have lunch that can include fish or chicken, rice, beans, spaghetti and manioc flowers. Please note that we can't provide special meals like vegetarian option. If rice, beans and spaghetti are enough for vegetarians then we'll be fine for lunch. After lunch you can relax and enjoy the view and even go for a swim if you want to refresh before we go to the next part of our tour.

After lunch we take our canoe again and will head to a platform where researchers work on the pink river dolphins, These amazing creatures capture our attention for many centuries now. They are so docile and friendly and can reach almost 3 meters long and weight up to 2 hundred kilos. In this platform you will be able to come very close to these incredible water mammals and take some nice pictures. In this place you also will have a chance to enter the water. So we recommend to bring your swimming suits and also your towels to dry after you get out from the water. Eventually you may have a chance to buy some beers of coconut juice. So its also advisable to bring some cash with you.

Now we will go for a canoeing through the region and see the beauties of the Negro river side. During our flood season (march to August) we have the phenomenon of the flooded forest, which we call here "Igapó". It's limply amazing to navigate among the trees and be marveled by such a Wonderfull landscape.

Once we find an ideal spot we will stop for piranha fishing. It's not so hard but we can't say it's the easiest thing to catch a piranha. These creatures are by far the most dangerous fishes with razor sharp teeth can can take a finger off with just one byte (it's a wise idea to let our guides remove them from the hook) If we catch one big enough we can even bring it to prepare for dinner (trust me, they are really tasty)

We will paddle to the middle of the river and wonder the most incredible sunset and take lots of pictures for your memories (don't forget to tag us on instagram)

Once the sun is down and the night falls we will go on a search for the night creatures that are hidden everywhere. With some luck we can spot a cayman and get very close to it so we can make videos and take nice pictures.

Once we finish all the activities we will go back to our guest house for having dinner and overnight. It's a simple place opened with beds with mosquito nets. The toilet is private but it's all very simple. The idea is to bring you closer to the nature and see how most of our amazonian people live. If you are the type that enjoy the comfort of a hotel I Recommend you to book only our 12 hours jungle experience and return to your hotel in Manaus. Please note that this vey tour is also divided into two day tours starting and returning to your hotel in Manaus. Then for the next day you can book our river day tour. This way you won't miss almost anything (Only the overnight and the sunrise the next morning).
