Great Introduction to Manaus - This is a wonderful tour to introduce you to the fascinating city of Manaus, the banana market, the opera house, the amazing Negro and Amazon rivers and so much more! The guides were on-time, interesting and were very fluent in English. Lunch was delicious. The boat ride was fun. This is a great tour! So much to see and do. Well worth your time and money!

Brilliant day trip to see Manaus and experience the Amazon - Brilliant trip to sample the main sights of Manaus old town and then the Negro and Amazon river. It is a good few hours for this tour so we started on time to view the origin of Manaus. Erivando was our guide. He was from Manaus originally so showed us the sites and explained everything. A highlight was the opera house (ticket included in the price of the tour) and the markets. Then we drove to the boat dock to start on the river Negro with Dennis who showed us to our lunch place and then we sailed through the Amazon canals to the meeting of the waters. That was an amazing spectacle. We arrived back ashore and then got dropped back at our hotel.

Awesome day!! - Started with a city tour! It was so informative and interesting! The fruit market and fish market were so educational! We then went to a museum and the Amazonia theater! Our guide was so funny and sweet! We then were taken to the dock and got on a boat to see the meeting of waters and that part of the tour! The guide here was amazing as well! We got to eat lunch at an amazing floating restaurant and there are plenty of vegetarian options here, as I am one! We saw monkeys on the canopy walk! This was a good tour to know the town and see the amazon river! Loved both tours We did with Milton! Highly recommended!

Really Fun Day! - We decided this was one of our favorite days in the two weeks we spent in Brazil. Our guides were FUN but also kept us safe and made sure we learned a little bit. We especially loved the boat ride. Lunch was great. City tour portion was interesting and the whole day had a relaxed, welcoming feel. 100 percent recommend!

Good introduction to Manaus and the Amazon - This was a very nice, slow paced tour that takes you around the old center of Manaus and then a relaxing cruise along the Amazon river. We visited the market, Rio Negro palace, the Amazonas Theatre and a square before goingnon a boat ride. Our guide Denis was very nice, spoke good English and was able to show us around and tell us a lot about the hostory of this city.
Once on the boat, we visited a floating restaurant for a nice buffet lunch and then tried a tug-of-war with a pirarucu, the largest fish in the Amazon river. We also stopped by Janauari Park where we saw squirrel monkeys and water lilies. Then it’s time to see the meeting of the two rivers. It was fascinating to see the waters meeting but not mixing.
In all, we had a great time and can recommend this tour.

Started out great then issue….. - Well, the in land was great and informative and included entrance fees. We were picked up at the port with a group of 9 of us. Unfortunately, after that was disappointing how they handled the tour. You do no get the same guide for land and water. We were dropped off at the boat without a guide that was a no show. We asked the current guide “ are you going to leave our party of 9 people to go do another tour for 2?” His answer action was yes! So we were sent on our way on the meeting of the water leg with just the boat operator John, who did his best to complete the trip. Our stop for lunch was late due to the delay on guide and so food was not hot and mostly gone from earlier tours. So yes, we enjoyed the excursion we did care for the hand off and no back up guide available. Keep this in mind as the boat operators dont speak english.

Okay, but left wanting a little more - Spent a lot of time in the banana and fish market, but seemed a little lacking in some of the other parts of the city tour. Unfortunately, no one seemed to know that the Opera House was
closed to the private tours the day we were there. Also, while we did see some of the other sights of the city, we didn't spend any time viewing anything except by passing in a car. Near the end we spent time killing time at a park. Then the hand off between the city tour and the Amazon River tour was mishandled poorly. We waited for over 30 minutes sitting in the back seat of a car, waiting for the boat captain to show up. Seemed there was some confusion as to where we would start our River Tour. Because of the late departure and the total misunderstanding of our ships departure sailing time we were rushed and only able to see a few items on that were listed as part of the tour. Everyone very apologetic, but we were just dissapointed. Have done other Viatours and have had exceptional service and experiences.
