Day by day

The Amazon jungle survival tour starts in Manaus, the capital of the Amazonas. Our boat will take us to the Meeting of Waters, where Negro River and Solimões River run parallel to each other for many kilometres without mixing, and you might even catch a glimpse of curious Amazon river dolphins. From there, we’ll navigate through numerous lakes and creeks that are teeming with wildlife, where you can see the giant Amazon water lilies with their huge floating leaves.

This campsite is located on the riverbank, making it convenient for activities since the rivers are the primary mode of transportation in this area. Lunch will be served in an open area by the river, with fresh fish roasted over an open fire. Activities for the day will be exploring the region by canoe, engaging in regional fishing, observing the diverse wildlife in the area, and marvelling at the sunset over the Mamori River.

Frequently Asked Questions

How to get to the Amazon Rainforest in Brazil?

There are a few ways to visit the Amazon Rainforest in Brazil, but the most convenient one is to fly to Manaus, the capital of Amazonas.

From the US, travelers can choose between two different direct flights, one from Fort Lauderdale (FLL) and one from Miami (MIA)Bogotá (BOG) and Panama (PTY) are also great options for Americans and Europeans to land in Manaus as soon as the plane hits Brazilian territory. Otherwise, layovers in São Paulo (GRU), Rio de Janeiro (GIG) or Brasília (BSB) are to be expected.

The Amazon in Mato Grosso and Pará are also amazing vacation spots to explore nature.

👉 Check our detailed article on how to get to the Amazon Rainforest in Brazil to learn all about the best transportation options!

When is the best time to visit the Amazon Rainforest?

Although the Amazon is considered a year-round destination, the period from January to September offers the best climate conditions because it avoids the peak of Dry Season at the same time that there are good hiking trail options and enough water for aquatic activities.

Speaking of those, the Wet Season (December to May) is great for people who want to enjoy the Amazonian rivers by kayaking, canoeing, swimming and exploring the flooded forest. Rainstorms are common, but they don’t last too long.

The Dry Season (June to November) is popular because it usually allows both water and land-based activities. However, it’s important to notice that extended droughts are becoming more frequent, especially from October to December. This causes low water levels and limited access to a few areas and itineraries, but things tend to get better by January.
