Amazon and the Caribbean Isles

Detailed Itinerary

The capital of Brazil’s Amazonas state, Manaus is the gateway to the riches of the great Amazon Basin forest and the key trading city for goods coming downriver and those flowing up from the coast. It holds many reminders of its boom-and-bust history, including the lavish Opera House which attracted the stars of music and theater from Europe and America a hundred years ago. Here. Too, you can witness the Meeting of the Waters, where the black, jungle-stained Rio Negro flows alongside the mud-brown Solimoes until the two waters finally mix to join the Amazon.
