Description

Our tour starts from your hotel from where we will head to the historical center of Manaus, you'll be able to see the facades of the buildings with the marks of neo classic style that was the look of Manaus during the rubber boom. Let's walk through an area called "the old Manaus" which can give a clear understanding of the wealthiest era that our region held. We'll visit a museum that used to be the city hall and gives us a good understanding of the history of the capital of the Amazonas state. We'll visit the Amazonas Opera House and understand how so many materials and artists were brought from Europe to the jungle to build a place that remains a symbol of this beautiful era. We'll head to the market complex to see the three buildings know as the banana market, the fish market and the municipal market, each holding its unique beauty. We'll visit also the Rio Negro Palace that was intended to be a rubber baron's house but ended up becoming the government's office.

Manaus trip

Samuel the driver of our tour was very nice and had a good attitude. Marcello the guide had excellent communication skills and is very passionate about his country. His English was impeccable and his knowledge of local history and overall information he gave us were very helpful to understand the culture and life of the region. We all highly recommend him for your guided tours in Manaus.

Good trip with doing!

Our Guide HEDGE was fabulous! He made the tour!! We enjoyed the market but unfortunately, the opera house was under minor renovations. Apparently they do this every January. It was still great to see! The rubber barons home was interesting to.

Manaus city tour in a compact car

The tour started out a little rough with the guide showing up with a compact car to pick up 4 adult not skinny people. This is the be aware that the vehicle used on tours in Manaus might not be your SUV or van type of vehicle. The next disappointment was that the Opera House was closed that afternoon due to an upcoming event. Not the tour guides fault but still disappointing. Since it was rainy season we were continually dodging rainstorms. But overall we saw some interesting museums and markets and the guide was very informative about the places we saw and visited. I would recommend this tour with the caveat that if cramped transportation isn’t your style then verify what size of vehicle is being used up front. These tours advertise air conditioned vehicle but don’t indicate size.

Operator response

Thank you for your feedback. Sorry for the size of the car we use in Manaus. Milton Fernandes

Manaus

Our guide was patient and helpful. Communication prior to tour was excellent. So helpful to have a car take us from place to place. Interaction with local people is always an education.

Great Day in Manaus

Arrived on a "pathetic" 5 hour late cruise. Joao (John) was waiting and showed us an nice tour. Behind the scenes and skipping the lines at crowded venues. As a native, John had an incredible knowledge of Manaus, and knew how to relay it to us in perfect English. HIghly Recommended

Thank you very much for your evaluation, Hope to have you back one day, Milton Fernandes
