What To Expect

Balneario Cachoeira do Castanho

We start around 8am from your hotel and drive west from Manaus for about one hour to the Castanho lake where our host will take you by motorized canoe (no cover typical slow amazonian transport) heading to the jungle where we’ll start a 2-3 hours hike to learn about Amazonian fauna and flora, like medicinal plants, jungle survival etc. We can't promise you'll see animals because our jungle is very dense and most of our creatures are small, but we will try to show you as much as Mother Nature allows us. (for this part of the tour you must wear long pants, closed toed shoes. Bring also a rain coat and insect repellent much needed during our wet season)

4 hours•Admission Not Applicable

Balneario Cachoeira do Castanho

Now we ride to a platform where a project is held for protection and research about pink river dolphins, in this place we’ll have the unique opportunity to learn about these friendly beautiful creatures and enter the water to interact with them. (you must bring your swimming suits and towels)

You’ll certainly get your money’s worth, and the guides work hard. Some things to consider: The description of a maximum of 12 per tour is not accurate. There are two wooden boats, and if fully packed, each holds 12 guests. So, there are a maximum of 24 guests, and you’re together all day except for the nature hike (best to be in the front group because the wildlife is startled off before the second group arrives) and the time in the boats. Ice cold beer and sodas were available at lunch for 10 reals/$2 USD. Credit cards ok too. Water is supplied in 2 L bottles, so bring a smaller bottle of your own to refill. Lunch was plentiful with chicken and fish etc. The wooden boat seats are HARD. We awoke the next day with serious bruises and blisters. The mosquitos on the hike are EPIC. The guides don’t carry bug spray, and you must have some. A long, full day.
Excellent Tour

One of the highlights on our trip to Brazil! Our tour guide was awesome and gave us a chance to experience the forest as well as his home. Loved swimming with the dolphins!
Highly recommend!

Great hotel pick up service, short boat ride to floating restaurant where they gave us all a 2liter water bottle, then we left for the jungle hike for like 2.5 hours then boat ride back to floating restaurant for yummy lunch, then boat ride to pink dolphins and fishing until sunset, then our guides found a baby alligator and we got to pet it! Beautiful day. It rained halfway through our jungle hike so glad we brought a poncho and rain jackets and tennis shoes. Would do it again!
Excellent day trip.

Very full and interesting day. Everything went smoothly. The car for the transfer was clean and comfortable, the boat was fine and the lunch was OK as well. Highlights were our guide Fabio who was so knowledgeable and made sure we experienced as much as possible; swimming with the pink dolphins and walking in the beautiful rainforest. Would recommend this tour.
