Introduction

The Amazon rainforest is Earth's largest tropical rainforest, called the "lungs of the Earth," harboring the planet's richest biodiversity, and Manaus is the gateway deep into Brazil's Amazon. From here, visitors take boats into the river-laced forest, stay at riverside or forest lodges, and with guides experience jungle treks, canoe trips, night caiman spotting, piranha fishing, indigenous village visits and sunrise/sunset viewing. In the dense primal forest, sloths, pink river dolphins, monkeys and colorful birds await. Deep in this vast, mysterious green world is a soul-stirring natural adventure.
