The Best Hotel in Amazon Excursions from Manaus, The Amazon

Background Illustration for Hotels

Because the Amazon and its tributaries provide easy access to remote parts of the jungle, river transport often serves as the starting point for camping and lodge excursions. Many lodges and camps are within or near national parks or reserves. Accommodations range from hammocks to comfortable rooms with private, hot-water bathrooms. Nature walks, canoe trips, piranha fishing, and visits to indigenous villages are typically part of rain-forest programs led by naturalists or indigenous guides. Most lodges will collect you from your hotel or the airport as part of the package.
