Amazon Adventure Tours – Mamori River

Our adventure begins with a departure from Manaus, where we will journey to our lodge. On the way, we will make our first stop at the Meeting of the Waters, where the dark waters of the Rio Negro meet with the sandy-colored waters of the Solimões River, creating an incredible natural phenomenon that is not to be missed.

The journey from Manaus to the lodge is just the first part of the adventure, and we can assure you that you will witness a variety of ecosystems, natural wonders, and typical scenery of the local people. Along the way, guests can spot various bird species, such as stilts that embellish the road’s edges, families traveling in small boats along the rivers, and fishermen patiently waiting for the perfect moment to catch their daily food.

The scheduled arrival at the Lodge is around 12:00 pm, there will be served a delicious lunch buffet featuring a variety of options to suit all tastes. The buffet includes freshwater fish, beef, chicken, salads, and a selection of exotic fruits sourced from the Amazon region. Following lunch, guests will have the opportunity to embark on a motorized canoe trip that will introduce them to the surrounding area. Throughout the journey, visitors will be immersed in the pristine and diverse landscapes of the region and will have the opportunity to observe and enjoy the great variety of animals that call this area home. At 7:30 p.m., dinner will be served in the lodge’s restaurant.

The adventure begins at 5:30 AM with a sunrise birdwatching tour, providing a wonderful opportunity to experience the Amazon awakening with the sun. Afterward, we return to the Lodge for breakfast.

Along the way, you will learn about the rich fauna and biodiversity of the Amazon.

We break for lunch at 12:00 p.m. and afterward, we take a peaceful canoe ride with oars to observe more wildlife such as sloths and monkeys. Returning to the Lodge, we have dinner at 7:30 p.m. Afterwards, you have the opportunity to witness the beautiful moonlight and listen to the sounds of the nocturnal creatures in the jungle.

After breakfast, you will depart from the lodge with your English-speaking guide to visit a local’s home and gain insight into their way of life in the Amazon.

On the return journey to the lodge, you will visit a cassava and rubber plantation where locals will demonstrate how they collect vegetables, fruits, nuts, and spices.
