Embark on an authentic Amazon jungle tour with Joshua’s Amazon Expeditions at Tapiri Lodge. Immerse yourself in the local culture and experience the wonders of the Amazon forest.
Meeting of Waters - Our day starts at 7am when we pick you up from your hotel in Manaus. We head to the Ceasa Port where you will board a speedboat along the Rio Negro. As we navigate the waters, the first stop on the trip is the floating village of Catalão. Here we will visit a fish farm where you can see the Giant Arapaima Gigas, the largest scaled fish in the world. You will be able to feed them and feel how strong they are!
After visiting the fish farm, we proceed by speedboat to the meeting of the waters. Here the Rio Negro and the Solimões River meet but don’t mix. Afterward, we continue along the river to the Careiro village. From there we will continue by road for about an hour to Maçarico lake. The final leg is by speedboat and you will arrive at the lodge at about 11:30 am. At noon, delicious local cuisine will be served for lunch.
Juma Floating Lodge (Pousada Do Nilson) - At 3:00 pm, we will head out on a canoe trip. On this trip, you’ll see the world-famous Amazon Pink River Dolphin, as well as an array of colorful birds. We’ll also get a chance to do some piranha fishing. We’ll stay out on the water until about 6:30 pm when we’ll watch the beautiful sunset, and at 7 pm we’ll return to the lodge for dinner. We head back on the waters at 8:30 pm in search of the fearsome Cayman. Your jungle guide will snatch a Cayman out of the water, allowing you to learn more about it up close, after which it’ll be carefully returned to its habitat.
