"Manaus" Manaus by NedHopkins

Manaus Travel Guide: 290 reviews and 814 photos

City in a fascinating setting

Interesting as Manaus the city is, its surroundings are even more fascinating. Choices include stays in eco-friendly lodges one or more hours away and "cruises" on the mighty Amazon or its greatest tributary, the Rio Negro.

Most cruises, in fact, explore the Negro. The reason is that the Negro's acidity is hostile to mosquitoes, where the Amazon's silty run abounds with the little buggers.
