Got to book these guys - One of the best run tours I have experienced on the 4mo 115day world cruise. Well planned and excited. Limited number of people.

Great day on the river. - We had a wonderful day on the river. Our ship was late getting in but we still managed to fit in so much in one day. The guide was very helpful although his English was limited. I would definitely recommend.

A Dreary and rainy start… - It was a dreary raining morning on the Amazon, and our tour was starting late because of our ship’s late arrival. Our guide Dennis started with a recommendation that we go downriver first instead of later, and save the swim with the pink dolphins for the afternoon. It turned out perfectly as we avoided most of the weather and enjoyed everything that was on the agenda ! It was a great day !

Fantastic day with great guide - We had the most fabulous day yesterday on this tour. We’d previously done a 4 day Amazon tour with another company and we did so much more on the River trip in just 1 day. It was amazing value for money. We didn’t think it could get better than the pink dolphins but then the Indigenous tribe visit was phenomenal. We were the only people there and they were so friendly and welcoming. We got to see them perform a ritual/ dance with music and we even joined in. Lunch was also absolutely delicious. Denis, our guide, was brilliant. He spoke perfect English and worked so hard to make our day special. He is a very hard working, caring and intelligent young man. Thank you for a wonderful day. Highly recommend!

Excellent organised and value trip. - Pick-up, boat travel, activities and lunch, and drop back were very efficient. Our guide, also was speedboat pilot, Lucivaldo, was very patient, knowledgeable, amenable, informative and a really nice guy to travel with. Milton the boss of the tour firm was prompt in reply to all enquiries. The dolphin and tribal community activities were delightful, a very nice lunch, and interesting jungle boardwalk.

Great trip! - Loved swimming with the dolphins and visiting an indigenous tribe. Arturo our guide was excellent! The only down side was the boat ride. Seats were so uncomfortable for such a long boat ride. Other that it was well the price.

River day tour - Trip was very inclusive. Guide was informative. Boat ride very long to include all we did. Indian village very good. I would suggest a boat with forward facing seats. Side bench seats a little much for this long trip. Good value.

Sights were good, but overall tour was overpriced. - The sights and attractions were good, but the trip logistics were poor: boat was too small for 6 guests (with lots of big luggage), tour started late, and the guide was quiet much of the time. Not worth the price ($100 per person).
