We invite you to enjoy a day in contact with nature while we go into the Amazon jungle to observe a unique phenomenon: the union of the Rio Negro, with darker waters, with the Rio Solimões, with clearer waters.
The tour consists of two parts: first, we will navigate the Rio Negro with a specialized guide until we reach the famous "Meeting of the Waters", an impressive natural phenomenon. Then, we will go to the Ecological Park of Janeiro where we will enter to know the flora and native fauna of the forest, besides enjoying a delicious lunch in the floating port.

We will reach the most interesting point of our tour, where the encounter of the Rio Negro with the Rio Solimões takes place, which join to form the Amazon River. It is particularly remarkable because you can clearly see the union of Rio Negro, of darker waters of almost black color, with Rio Solimões, of clearer waters with a clay tone. For 6 km the waters of the two rivers flow side by side without mixing, which is due to the differences in temperature, speed and density of the water in the two rivers.
After enjoying this fascinating phenomenon, we will continue sailing to the Ecological Park of Janeiro, where you can see the famous aquatic plants and purchase indigenous crafts. We will take a break for lunch at the floating port and then take a motorized canoe trip through various channels (igarapés) of the Rio Negro and Rio Solimões (depending on the water level).
At the end, we will return to the hotels through the jungle, where we can see various types of birds in the lush Amazon.
