We organize tours on several types of boats. Several different programs are offered. One of the most popular is possible to do in a regional boat with hammocks or in a launch with cabins and air conditioning. You will visit many exotic places around Manaus. You will set out from Manaus for the Rio Solimões (white water) and return to the Rio Negro (black water) by a small tributary. On the third day you will reach the largest river archipelago in the world, The Arquipelago das Anavilhanas, containing hundreds of islands.
