Open-air museum - Museum tells the history of rubber and its way of production .We had a friendly and knowledgeable guide of the matter. Important is to watch the movie The Jungle shot on site

Apprenticeship - The person who welcomed us gave us all the information about life on the rubber plantation. What they behaved, how they got into debt, how they lived, etc. Very interesting.

Reliable provider, short-term booking possible - Picked up at the hotel on time, guide James spoke fluent English, trip on the Rio Negro was beautiful, rubber museum was small but you can easily imagine how people lived back then. The history of the rubber business (how it started, how hard it was for the workers, when and why it ended etc.) was unfortunately not covered in enough detail in our case, we were not given any information about it.
Nevertheless, it was a nice 3-hour trip.

Beautiful day on a rubber farm - To understand why Manaus became one of the richest cities in the world, you should visit this museum, know a lot of interesting things, unique, the tour guide was very competent and nice, he was very open, gave you a lot of background knowledge, not only about the museum , but also about her work and the Amazon and how important it is to protect this unique place and the people.

History - Its amazing to walk and see how in the past things were done. The museum has been preserved and the guide we had showed us how the rubber was "tapped" out of the tree!

Avoid this kind of tour. - Don’t take the guide. Everything you to here you can do 80% cheaper than whit a guide. You just take the boat to the museum. You pay 5-10 reals and you get of at the museum. The museum have a English speaking guide.
