Review:

A perfect starting point for those looking to explore the vast and beautiful Amazon Rainforest, Manaus is located on the dark waters of the Negro River, just east of where they meet the Solimões River to form the mighty Amazon River. This meeting point is known as the “meeting of the waters,” and the visual spectacle of the muddy water meeting the dark waters is an unforgettable one. Visitors to Manaus can see the colorful ceramic tiles of the Amazonas Theater, take a boat tour to explore nearby resorts and towns, or hire a guide to show them the wonders of the Amazon. The local cuisine is heavily fish-based, with many exotic dishes that are sure to leave its visitors salivating, and local fruits and delicacies that are simply divine.
