We had a fun day filled with activities. The guide was great and he was gracious and explained everything in English every time, after the Portuguese announcement, even though we were only 4 who dint speak Portuguese. That made the trip worth it as we were able to follow everything. The visit to the indigenous village was good and the pink dolphins were fun.

Great experience with our guide Kennedy. Company taked care of us from start to finish. Experience we took is good for everyone in every age but if youre looking for some more exciting and intense things to do in Amazon you need to take survival option. I recommend Joshua company and would definetly go with them one more time.

Very good. We went fishing and fish some piranhas. The guide also captured a small alligator and explained about it. Then, we took a walk into the florest and saw many animals. The last night we made a camp a slept in the florest.

We had an great time in the amazon, it was our first time there and the guide was amazing. He helped us with everything we needed and explained all the beautifull things the amazon had to offer.

The trip was amazing - exceeded all expectations! Everything was organised well and ran smoothly giving us an experience of a lifetime - thank you!
