Exciting private river tour!!!

I contacted this tour operator on WhatsApp for a three-hour private tour for two. The organization was precise and punctual! We were picked up at the indicated point in the city center and then at the end taken back to our hotel, which wasn't exactly in the city center. The boatman first took us swimming with pink dolphins; it was truly exciting, especially since we were the only ones there! We then set off on a picturesque boat ride through the forest. We reached another docking point where we could disembark and walk through the forest on a boardwalk, listening to the sounds of nature. Finally, we set off for the final stop, the meeting of the waters, where he let us feel the difference in temperature between the two rivers. The only thing that could be improved is that the guide didn't speak English but he still tried to explain things to us and we understood each other a little.

Everything

I made the reservation via WhatsApp and the truth is they responded immediately, even though I made it only two or three hours before it started. They confirmed with me right away. They sent a car to the hotel to pick us up and took us to the port where Mario took us in his boat to see the sunset from the Rio Negro. Exceptional views of the sunset and exceptional service from Mario, with whom we went piranha fishing. I couldn't tip him because I only had cards, but he deserved it because he made the excursion unforgettable for us. Everything excellent
