Dear Luciana, we had a very nice time at Amazon Ecopark. My comments– the room was
very clean and comfortable, nicely decorated, the reception area, bar and all of
the grounds were very well-kept, interesting decor and inviting places to sit
and relax or have a drnk, play chess. For me the food was good, although I love
Amazonian fish and farinha. I heard other guests question the food, probably
more explanation would have helped them– for example a description of what
farinha is.
The activities and excursions with our guide were perfect for my eight year old
nature-loving son. He loved the jacare spotting trip, piranha fishing, and the
hike in the forest. Those were all interesting and appropriate for first-time
visitors to Amazonia.
My only suggestion is`that they provide an itinerary for the guests. We were
dependent on our guideto tell us when the activities would take place. On the
day of the meeting of the waters all day trip I decided not to go, since we’ve
seen it a number of times and it would be a very long day for the baby in a
boat. There was an afternoon trip that day to the Indian village that I didn’t
know about since our guide went to Manaus for the day. We missed out on
something due to lack of information.
Overall, I would recommend Amazon Ecopark to others as a very nice place to stay and a
great introduction to the Amazon. I would also recommend Viverde as the service
was very efficient. Thank you, Kellen
