I liked it. - It was very cool, swimming in the river is very good, lunch too and knowing the indigenous culture was wonderful Boots only come if they want to, they get released normally. Macaquins are cute and only come if they want to, they just pass between us

Rio Negro x Rio Solimões - Having the privilege of sailing through the waters of the River Negro, making your debt with the River Solimões, is for a few, a stunning wonder.

A great one day trip that covers the major highlights. - For what it is, this tour covers a lot of ground: River confluence, pink dolphins, fishing, lunch, nature walk, and tribal village. Boat has power outlets for phone charging and free ice water. I think my group was among the 10% that spoke English. The guide’s English was okay when I spoke with him one on one, but otherwise, i didn’t know what he was saying. There’s a lot lost to translation or simply not as detailed since the Portuguese explanation was significantly longer than the English explanation. This is a consolidated tour, meaning you could find different vendors on Viator or anywhere else selling the same thing (ie similar itinerary but same boat trip), which means you can shop around for best pricing.

Good, but things to improve! - The trip itself was good. We saw many interesting sights, the food was great and the trip itself was a cool adventure. Something I didn't like was that the agency offered transportation to the hotel. But then they sent an Uber (delayed, out of schedule), and in my opinion, it demonstrates their lack of seriousness. It is, as a rule, very poor communication with the Cover who organizes the activity (not Miguel). In the end, apart from that, the trip was good; we saw a lot and enjoy the whole day.

It's just ok - Like many other reviews, one of the biggest issues is the terrible sound system. We couldn't understand what the guide was saying in English. The operation is quite unsanitary, especially during the last stop where folks were swimming in the river with a pink dolphine that they've enticed to come around with food. The bobbing platform has a bathroom that does not have any running water. The workers simply dump a bucket of river water into the bowl from time to time. It appears that the waste water goes directly into the river where all the guests are swimming with the dolphin. On the positive side, the hot buffet lunch was tasty if you're not too worried about the flies that are buzzing around constantly.

Complicated - In fact, it is not a half-day tour, but a full-day tour. He said it would end at 1:00, but it did end at 4:00. We had a wedding the same day, which compromised a lot. Other than that, the walk was quite different than the one described. I found it pretty disorganized about what's sold and the real ride.
