Later, tour the Meeting of Waters, where the dark Rio Negro and the pale sandy-colored Amazon River collide!
Brazil is home to a wide variety of wildlife, from colorful parrots to sleepy sloths. See some of these incredible animals up close at the Wild Animal Habitat at the Amazon Ecopark Lodge. Get a chance to view animals that are being rehabilitated and re-introduced into the wild.
Spend the remainder of the day at your leisure.
Take one last look at the Amazon before transferring to Manaus where you will spend the night. Consider visiting the Adolpho Ducke Botanical Garden, which is actually the world’s largest urban forest.
