Riverside Amazon lodge stay from Manaus: piranha fishing, nighttime caiman spotting, swim with pink dolphins, indigenous village rituals, giant water lilies, Meeting of the Waters cruise, all meals, transfers and small group max 12 included.
Dive deep into the Amazon on a 3-day, 2-night adventure from Manaus that blends wildlife, culture, and raw nature at a floating lodge on the Juma River, 100 km south in a pristine, less-touristed corner of the rainforest.
Paddle by motorized canoe and kayak through flooded forests (wet season) or narrow creeks (dry season), hike trails to learn survival skills and medicinal plants, swim with playful pink river dolphins, fish for piranhas, spot caimans at night, and visit local families to experience their simple way of life. Stay in air-conditioned private rooms with mosquito nets, enjoy authentic Amazonian meals (fresh fish, rice, beans, manioc, fruits), and wake to sunrise cruises that feel like stepping into a different world.
This small-group tour (max 12) includes round-trip transfers from Manaus (hotel or airport), all meals, lodging, bilingual guiding, and a focus on authentic, low-impact exploration.
Real talk: the Amazon is wild—expect bugs (bring repellent), variable weather, and moderate fitness for hikes/canoeing. No AC in some areas; pack layers for cool nights.
Perfect for nature lovers wanting immersion without multi-week commitment—book early for dry season.
Here's practical advice to help your Amazon adventure go well, based on common experiences with jungle conditions, wildlife, and weather. We've pulled this from what past guests told us after their trips.
Common issues. Not wheelchair accessible—jungle terrain. Guests found moderate fitness sufficient; no major climbs. Weather rarely cancels; dress in layers.
High likelihood—Amazon is rich in animals. Guests saw dolphins, birds, caimans, and sometimes monkeys—guides maximize sightings.
Moderate—short trails, some uneven ground. Guests with average fitness handled it fine; guides adjust pace.
Yes for ages 5+ who handle long days and jungle conditions. Families said older kids loved the canoe and wildlife, but supervise closely.
Limited—meals are simple (rice, beans, veggies). Notify early for adjustments. Guests found options sufficient.
Canoe deck and trails give great angles—bring a good zoom lens or phone with stabilizer. Guides pause for shots when animals appear.
