Itinerary
At the Adolpho Lisbon Municipal Market, you will find a wide variety of typical and regional dishes, besides crafts and a lot of history present in its beautiful structure in the style of art nouveau. Tip: The morning is the best time to visit, as it is when you find fresh fruit, fish and vegetables.
We will visit the Teatro Amazonas and the Largo de São Sebastião, two of the most important postcards of Manaus. At this time of the tour, you will have time to walk in peace, appreciate the historic architecture, meet the charming Church of St. Sebastian and take beautiful photos in one of the city’s most iconic landscapes. The Amazonas Theatre, a symbol of the rubber age, impresses by its beauty and richness of details, being one of the most important monuments in Brazil. ⚡️ Observation: on Mondays, the theater does not open for internal visits due to maintenance, and only external visits are held.
We will meet the Jefferson Park, a public space that honors an important politician who contributed to the development of Manaus. In ancient times, the area was occupied by palaphite houses, without adequate infrastructure and with precarious living conditions. With the PROSAMIM project, the families were relocated to decent homes, and the venue was transformed into an urban park. Today, the park is a pleasant space for leisure, hiking and cohabitation, frequented by families and visitors.
At this point, we will make a guided walk through the traditional Banana Fair, passing through the fruits, fish and vegetables sectors, where it is possible to experience the daily life of local merchants and to know the diversity of regional products. Next we will visit the Adolpho Lisbon Municipal Market, focusing on the craft area, where you will find typical pieces of the Amazon and you will be able to learn more about the local culture. The tour is approximately 45 days long, providing an authentic experience, rich in flavors, colors and traditions of the region.
The Rio Negro Palace was originally the residence of an important colonel during the rubber cycle, a period that marked the height of Manaus' wealth and development. With its imposing architecture and rich in detail, the venue preserves the history and elegance of that time. Today, the palace is one of the main historical points of the city, allowing visitors to learn more about the culture, politics and the distinctive past of the Amazon region. ⚡️ Attention: on Tuesdays, the site does not open for internal visitation due to maintenance, and only a panoramic (external) visit is carried out.
We will visit the Manaus City Museum (external visit) and then the Mirante Lúcia Almeida, the first viewpoint of the city with a complete structure of restaurant, cafeteria and snack bar. From there, you can enjoy a beautiful view of the River Negro and the Bridge over the River Negro, one of the postcards of Manaus.

It was exactly as advertised. The guide was friendly and knowledgeable about the city and gave us time to look around. A good way to spend an afternoon in Manaus.
Thank you so much ☺️✈️🚗🚐
Very easy to book and communicate. The car felt very high class with leather seats and air conditioning. Easy pick up and drop off right at the door. Prepared for weather conditions, walking us with umbrella or stopping right in front of the attraction. Felt very private just for us 2. The guide was very knowledgeable and very informative, speaking English very well and not rushing us at any point or situation, felt more like talking to a friend. We even got fruits and souvenirs delivered back with us to our stay. We were very happy to have booked this tour, it was definitely worth the price. The tour felt way longer then the actual time spent. Highly recommended.
Thank you so much Ms Ludmila

Thank you so much
City tour of Manaus was very good. Our guide Tarique explained the history of the city in details and showed each place thoroughly. We wouldn’t visit the big Fruit market and fish market in Manaus if we didn’t take this tour. Our guide also gave good recommendations about restaurants.
Thank you so much ☺️🚗🚐✈️
