Amazing Day - So fascinating. The Opera House was fantastic. The river trip blew our minds. Saw amazing sights, caimans, fillings and monkeys. The pirarucú fish farm was surprising and exciting. It’s hard to get a sense of the scale of the river environments if you don’t get out on it.

Great way to see Manaus... - Great way to see Manaus and the Amazon. Well planned and guides were very informative. Not for people with mobility issues.

Great Introduction to Manaus - This is a wonderful tour to introduce you to the fascinating city of Manaus, the banana market, the opera house, the amazing Negro and Amazon rivers and so much more! The guides were on-time, interesting and were very fluent in English. Lunch was delicious. The boat ride was fun. This is a great tour! So much to see and do. Well worth your time and money!

Boring in the morning, great in the afternoon with boat trip to the Meeting Waters - We've been forgotten. 40 minutes later, I asked why no one was coming. The tour leader said we cancelled the trip, which was not true. Morning tour was very boring although the guide tried hard. I missed the visit to the Opera and others.

Started out great then issue….. - Well, the in land was great and informative and included entrance fees. We were picked up at the port with a group of 9 of us. Unfortunately, after that was disappointing how they handled the tour. You do no get the same guide for land and water. We were dropped off at the boat without a guide that was a no show. We asked the current guide “ are you going to leave our party of 9 people to go do another tour for 2?” His answer action was yes! So we were sent on our way on the meeting of the water leg with just the boat operator John, who did his best to complete the trip. Our stop for lunch was late due to the delay on guide and so food was not hot and mostly gone from earlier tours. So yes, we enjoyed the excursion we did care for the hand off and no back up guide available. Keep this in mind as the boat operators dont speak english.

Okay, but left wanting a little more - Spent a lot of time in the banana and fish market, but seemed a little lacking in some of the other parts of the city tour. Unfortunately, no one seemed to know that the Opera House was
closed to the private tours the day we were there. Also, while we did see some of the other sights of the city, we didn't spend any time viewing anything except by passing in a car. Near the end we spent time killing time at a park. Then the hand off between the city tour and the Amazon River tour was mishandled poorly. We waited for over 30 minutes sitting in the back seat of a car, waiting for the boat captain to show up. Seemed there was some confusion as to where we would start our River Tour. Because of the late departure and the total misunderstanding of our ships departure sailing time we were rushed and only able to see a few items on that were listed as part of the tour. Everyone very apologetic, but we were just dissapointed. Have done other Viatours and have had exceptional service and experiences.
