Hello, my name is Jeff & I am a United States Army Combat Veteran who always felt the need to travel & explore this amazing world. At vipamazontours.com, I started out as a tourist lucky enough to get Kenrick assigned to me as my guide for my first trip to the Amazon. I have since been back and understand how important it is to have the best guides for your experience. So my new very good friend and I set out to start a company dedicated to creating these same experiences for other fellow travelers. We are passionate about providing unforgettable travel experiences with English speaking and consistent guides. Our team of expert guides is dedicated to showcasing the beauty and diversity of the Amazon rainforest while keeping you safe and sound during this unforgettable experience.
Kenrick AKA Jungle Boy has 35 years of experience as a guide in the Amazon. He was born Indigenous and was raised in the Amazon Jungle. We will design a travel package specifically for you! Kenrick can lead you on a nice easy Jungle trip,wrestle some Crocodiles or anything in between. We can make your dreams come true!
This include 2 nights in Manaus at one of our elegant Hotel Partners. It also includes 3 nights at our lodge partner. Choose from the various activities to fill in your time!

We have access to many other amenities including boat rentals. We can plan kayak float trips all the way to renting your own 10 bedroom luxury boat all to yourself with chef, captain, guides, and security included. We can deliver whatever your dreams come up with.
Many people visit this area with fishing being the only goal in mind. We can make it unforgettable. Monster Peacock Bass Fishing with plenty of other fish to catch as well. To name a few: Piranha, Arapaima, Traira, Red Tail Catfish, & many more species. Also enjoy an optional night time Caiman Spotting boat ride. Sunrise and sunset boat tours are a must see as well. These trips must be done from the Lodge.
While visiting you will have the opportunity to visit multiple Local Tribes. Take advantage of this as there are not too many parts of the world where Indigenous Tribes welcome you into their worlds. They will share history, dancing, & their animal species with you while you visit. You might get lucky and even get to handle some of the animals. You can see many of these animal pictures in our photo gallery. This can be done from the Lodge or a day trip out of Manaus.
Guided hikes near the lodge. The purpose of this is to see the nature around you. Learn about the local animals and trees. They will teach you about jungle survival and learn about many purposes of the different plants and how they have helped people survive here for thousands of years.
Come see the world famous Adolpho Lisboa municipal market. There are so many interesting things to see here and it is another must see while on the trip. Take a quick stop at the Juma Opera House & Hear a history of Manaus. Also, come see some Rubber Trees and find out how they Made Manaus famous! You can also enjoy shopping at Manaus's top two luxury shopping malls and enjoy fine dining while visiting out of Manaus.
This has to be the most well known thing to see in all of Northern Brazil. The Amazon River meets the Rio Negro and the two huge rivers refuse to join! The Brown waters of the Amazon can be seen next to the black waters of the Rio Negro. Check out the photo of the meeting of the waters above. Afterwards, swing by to get in the water with the Famous Pink River Dolphins of the Amazon. You may swim with and hand feed these amazing creatures. This would be a day trip out of Manaus.
Check out these beautiful waterfalls. While there, you will get to see 2-3 of the best waterfalls while also enjoying a short hike through the jungle to see a cave system and do some rare bird watching while you hike! Lunch is included during this tour. This is a day trip out of Manaus.
I love to hear from fellow travelers & locals from the Amazon area! Do you offer a service that my customers would love to hear about while visiting the Amazon? Let me know so I can offer it on the website! Or, just have a question about some of my recent trips & just want to share some travel tips, or have a question? Drop me a line!
