Your overall comments on the trip and the travel company:

Trip was good and as I expected. I had done pretty much the exact same trip with daughter a year ago, just in a different order of destinations within Brazil. Everything was as expected. Except for the guide in Sao Paulo. Driving was a suspect. Not too crazy or anything, but enough I was always paying attention. Plus, the half day tour we did was quite boring, because all he seem to want to do is drive around and tell us about the 60+ neighborhood of Sao Paulo, commenting every time we crossed a certain road and entered into a new neighborhood. Talk, talk, talk. Just wasn't very conducive to a 10 year old boy. Hence, we asked the driver to end the tour an hour and half early, because my son was falling asleep. The hotel in Sao Paulo is really nice. All hotels were good and as expected.

What were the most enjoyable or memorable parts of your trip?

The stay in Jungle/Amazon is always the best. Nice and quiet, with some activities to do, you just can't do just anywhere.

If you could take your trip again, what would you do differently?

Hardest part of the trip, was getting there, which had nothing to do with the tour company. I booked the international flight and set the starting/ending destination. So, totally on me. But in case other inquire or ask, I would probably change the order as starting in Manaus is more challenging to get to from outside South America.

TRAVEL COMPANY'S COMMENTS

Dear Michael,

Thank you for your review. I am happy to hear that overall your trip was great. I agree the lodge you stayed at is one of the best and it sounds like it did not disappoint this time. In addition the Amazon, you had some wonderful activities at Iguassu Falls and in Rio.

As you mentioned your flights were set and so the trip had to end with some time in Sao Paulo. We strive to provide the best experience possible and local guides are a very important component of every trip. I was very disappointed to hear the guide in Sao Paulo was not up to these standards and I wanted you to know we are following up on your comments with our local supplier.

In the meantime, we have compensated you for the cost of that city tour.

Thank you for the feedback, it always helps us improve and thank you for booking your travel with us.
