Nowhere inspires more awe and wonder at the raw beauty of remote nature like the Amazon Basin of South America. Pioneered by Major Candido Rondon de Silva, explorations in this region of Brazil became the stuff of legend, as Rondon enabled the first telegraph line and subsequently the first road, to cross the Brazilian Amazon. He discovered numerous indigenous groups, named several major rivers, and is hailed by many Brazilians as one of the true heroes of Brazil’s native people and lands.

Our short extension to Acre is the perfect complement to our tour to Pousada PiraAçu, giving us an extra opportunity at finding Rondonia Bushbird, as well as a good number of low-density species restricted to the terra firme and bamboo forests of southwestern Amazonia.

What our clients say about us

Alexander Alvarado
JM, Brazil - Pantanal: Birds & Wildlife II 2026

Thanks for a fantastic birding and wildlife experience.

Forrest Rowland
CS & CS - Brazil Tailor-made 2022

We had an unbelievably great tour. ALL the guides were extraordinary and fun to be around. They went out of their way to provide us non-birders with very interesting, novel activities. We all enjoyed seeing all the wildlife - it was beyond expectations. The 50th anniversary surprise was an unexpected, delightful treat. We don't know how the tour could have been any better.

xTuomas Seimola
IS - Manaus 2022

Guides - in addition to Tuomas we a great local guide - whose bird-finding skills were fully up to Rockjumper standards, so had all the resources needed to get us onto the birds. Highlight of the trip was undoubtedly birding in comfort and style on the river cruise section. Being paddled in a canoe through flooded varzea forest must be the height of birding luxury. Land-based sections of the tour were also rewarding despite the inevitable heat and chiggers (fortunately minimal rain). Overall a very satisfying tour, with more lifers for me than on a longer trip to Colombia in 2019 that also included Amazonian habitat on the Vaupes River. A great bunch of people too.

Bradley Davis
GB, Brazil - Manaus & Rio Negro 2026

Brad Davis is one of the very best birding guides with whom I have had the pleasure of birding. I told him that he was the Hank Aaron of birding guides; the only guide I've ever birded with who would deserve an even higher rating was Brian Finch in Kenya. Brad knows the ID of the birds, the vocalizations, the taxonomy, the binomials, and so forth. He also possesses vast knowledge of Brazil's plants and wildlife, beyond just birds, along with geography, culture, and so forth. On top of that, he speaks perfect Portuguese, as best I could tell (being a non-Portuguese speaker myself). Those are rare traits to find all in one guide! This was a very good trip indeed. As I am writing this, I am so tired from the long trip back home, that I am not in my best frame of mind, and have probably overlooked something that might be food for thought in this survey response. I would like to add that the boat portion of the trip was excellent. I was particularly impressed with "Junior" Moasir, who was the rep from the boating company aboard." He was personable, knew the birds and wildlife, and helped make that part of the trip fun and memorable. Oh, and the food was excellent throughout the trip! I don't need a member of the team to contact me regarding my feedback, but if someone does want to contact me, that is fine, also.

Lev Frid
