I highly recommend the city tour. we visited the historic opera House, the city market which was an experience I’ll never forget. Then we took a boat tour to see... read more the meeting of the rivers, cruising the Manaus shoreline, and visiting the floating village. Milton was in the enclopedia of knowledge, explaining and informing a multitude of places, wildlife, and sites. Thanks Milton.. Derek

  Great tour with Milton and Fabio! - As we were looking for a 1 night tour with seeing as much as possible - this tour suited us very well. Tour organizer Milton Fernandes was very helpful. We... read more were glad to meet tour guide Fabio, we learned a lot about the Amazon forest, changes between the dry and rainy seasons, got acquainted with flora and fauna (a bit 🙂 ), etc. His sister was preparing simple, but very delicious food. We wish him all the best with his plans! So, if you have just a couple of days for Amazon and want to see what is possible, this tour is for you.

  All day jungle and river experiences.  - Swimming with dolphims was the highlight, but really enjoyed the entire day including the jungle walk where we saw a sloth and a tarantula, the lunch at the floating restaurant... read more (where we saw another sloth), fishing for piranha (my wife and I each caught 2), and the ride back (watching the sunset and seeing caiman eyes reflecting our lights back at us). Our guide was Fabio and he was fabulous!

  Milton is the person to contact for creating the tours you want for the time you spend in Manaus. His command of the English language was impressive and his friendly... read more attitude genuine. His knowledge of history and science is deep. And he has a great sense of humor. The drivers and other guides he employs were all friendly and competent. And he is flexible, I wasn’t able to go on the jungle and waterfalls day tour but had extra days unscheduled so he suggested the botanical garden of Manaus to give me the rainforest experience and it was perfect. Another highlight for me was the boat ride to the meeting of the waters, an unforgettable experience. You will be in good hands if you book your tours with Milton.

    - This one day event was definitely worth it, the local guides spoke English and were very knowledgeable about the jungle, explaining the plants and animals we encountered during the hike,... read more serving a very tasty buffet-style lunch with fish from the river and cold beverages from the bar. A lot of activities were packed into this one-day trip and I can highly recommend this family-owned trip organizer. They even came to your hotel to pick you up and drop you off late in the evening. Several travelers stayed the night at their lodge in the forest, doing all the activities like visiting the dark and brown water of the Rio Negro merging with the Rio Solimões, feeding and swimming with the pink dolphins, etc. Afterwards, go to have dinner at the excellent Tambaqui de Banda restaurant near the Teatro Amazonas. Since most locals don't speak English, bring your iPhone with a translation app. this is a trip to remember.

  O Milton foi um guia excepcional. Os lugares que visitamos foram ótimos e ele sempre tinha informações interessantes pra adicionar ao roteiro. Foi super flexível com nossos interesses. Super amigável... read more e educado e fez o passeio ser bem melhor do que eu esperava. Recomendo demais pra quem tem pouco tempo. Quando voltar à Manaus vou entrar em contato direto com ele pra passeios mais longos.

  I work for an airline and I travel a lot for my job. Unfortunately, due to the nature of my schedule, I am unable to book activities in destinations I... read more visit too far in advance. I got lucky with Amazon Private Tours by Milton Fernandez. Milton, the owner and our guide, managed to put together a trip for myself and my crew with very short notice and boy am I glad he did! He was communicative and professional, and customized the tour to our specific requests. Six of us did a tour lasting about 5 hours where he piloted a small boat up the Rio Negro River, the largest tributary flowing into the Amazon. We got a chance to interact with the pink dolphins in their natural environment, and as a vegetarian who is passionate about animal welfare, I have to admit I was leery of this activity at first. There are many animal interactive activities I have passed on around the world because of their exploitative nature, but I didn't feel that at all with this one. We were actually swimming in the river and the dolphins come over of their own free will, of course attracted by fish snacks. It was amazing to see these creatures in their natural habitat, they were so beautiful. We then continued upriver to visit a tribe of indigenous people. I don't know if they put on a show for visitors or not, but I honestly felt that they were happy to see us. The chief was charming and seemed sincere as he welcomed us warmly into his village and his tribe. Everyone in the tribe seemed friendly and as interested in us as we were with them. I learned a lot about their culture, listened to some of their music, and had a chance to participate in a dance with the whole tribe. We all LOVED it! I have had countless memorable travel experiences, and this one ranks right up there in the top five. I think I can speak for my crew members, since I know they were all delighted with our 5 hours on the Rio Negro. One thing to consider, make sure you have some Brazilian cash to be able to buy some of the handicrafts from the tribe. Thank you Milton for an amazing afternoon! Obrigada!

  To say it was amazing is the least..my tour guide Rambo was super cool and awesome! He has really good knowledge and knows his way around the jungle.. i will... read more highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Manaus. You can contact Rambo personally through his number +55 92 98853-0868 for a better price. He was the best! I had a great day in the Amazon!

  I am not going to lie,when my husband said we are going into the jungle and we are sleeping there for a night I lost 2 weeks of sleep before... read more that.But after I met Milton and Fabio I felt a lot better. And once we start our journey all that fear faded and it was replaced by excitement. And the most important part wasthat I felt safe. There are risks obviously but even walking down the road its a risk nowadays. Just listen to your guide, watch your steps and use loads of bugs spray even though there were more mosquitos far away from amazon.We had an amazing time. We left with so many memories.It was one in a lifetime experience that I honestly recommend.
