Step by Step
This tour lasts about 4 hours and is especially recommended for those who want to learn about the history of this city in the heart of the jungle. The price includes hotel pick-up and drop-off and an expert guide. Normally, the first stop is the Teatro Amazonas, probably the most emblematic place in the Brazilian city. You will recognise it by its glazed ceramic dome, reminiscent of that of the Opéra Garnier in Paris. Subsequently, you will see the following points of interest:
- Adolpho Lisboa Market - The most important market in the city. Here you will find local gastronomic specialities, as well as tropical fruits, herbs, medicinal plants and natural remedies used in traditional medicine. It is also worth buying a souvenir of your trip by opting for local handicrafts, including leather goods, jewellery and much more.
- Rio Negro Palace - Recognizable by its neoclassical appearance, it was built in 1903 to become the residence of Waldemar Scholz, a wealthy German merchant known by the nickname "Rubber Baron".
- Parque Jeferson Peres - Public park dedicated to Jefferson Peres, a Brazilian politician who contributed to the development of the city. It is very large and a favourite place for locals to relax or play sports.
- Museu da Cidade de Manaus - The cultural space that illustrates the history of the city. In the mid-19th century, Manaus became an important collection and shipping point for rubber. The rubber boom left an indelible mark on local architecture, culture and history.
