Our local guides bring the rainforest to life through knowledge earned over generations—its rivers, wildlife, plants, communities and hidden paths.
The greatest Amazon journeys are shaped by the people who call this place home. Paulo and Moisés combine years of professional guiding with a lifetime of practical rainforest experience.
I am a son of the Juma River, one of the best known and most magical places of the Amazon. I have been working as a tour guide for approximately 9 years in different parts of the Amazon rainforest, doing fishing adventures, bird watching and adventure expeditions.
I have also worked with the local Amazon communities to exchange knowledge about medicinal plants, indigenous customs as well as fishing and survival techniques. I believe the Amazon is the most fantastic place and that we have a responsibility to protect this beautiful part of the world.
This is why I am so happy to be a part of Amazon Deep Jungle Tours, because this gives me a chance to share my knowledge about the Amazon and help protect the environment and local communities.
My name is Moisés Cascais da Cruz. I was born in Paranã do Mamori, a community near Lago do Tracaja which is located 90 kilometers from Manaus. I am 35 years old and have been working as a tour guide in the Amazon since I was 25.
On my adventures I will teach you how to survive in the Amazon rainforest. I am a great hunter and fisherman. I do camping in the jungle, and catch alligators and snakes to show you some of the amazing animals of the Amazon up close. I also know everything about the medicinal plants of the jungle.
When you go on a tour with me and Amazon Deep Jungle Tours, you will be completely safe, as I will be taking you to the area where I have spent all my life. We will visit the house of my brother and you can see how they plant and harvest the cassava roots, which is an essential part of survival in the Amazon. So come with us and have an adventure of a lifetime.
Choose your journey and experience the rainforest through the eyes of guides whose knowledge, stories and lives are rooted in the Amazon.
