I just received a reply to an email I sent to Barrachina Restaurant. They store baggage every day 8-5. Will definitely plan on using them.

Thanks for the info. Also, the airport is so close, we may drop the bags off and come back.

I am on the same ship. Would like to find out if there is a place to store luggage at the airport so we can drop it and go back into town.

We took your recommendation, got superior rooms. Thought that you might be interested, we could not use Al as our guide because he was leading a Roads Scholar group, We will do a Lake Janauari trip, a Negro river trip and a morning trip to the Opera House, market, shopping and other points not covered by viking before being dropped off at the ship, Not as comprehensive as what you did, but should be fun. We are really looking forward to it.

Great descriptions and great pictures. Thanks again. We booked the Quality inn for three nights in December ahead of the December 8 Viking tour from Manaus. Have arranged guided tours for all three days which will probably take up most of our time. Glad to hear that the hotel restaurant is good.

I loved your detailed reviews and pictures of the cruise and experience post cruise. It gave so much great information for me and others planning on taking this cruise at a later,date. I am eagerly awaiting your final installments. We will be arriving in Manaus three days before the December 8 cruise to take local tours in the Amazon region. I had been considering Aldinei as a guide and your account inspired me to reach out to him. Unfortunately, he is booked for that time. We did book another guide from tours by locals for a trip on the Rio Negro and are asking him to plan our three days, including the most convenient hotel. I hope he has the same knowledge of wildlife and birds. Per you suggestion, we will pre book transport from the airport and to the cruise port.

We are staying in Manaus or a few extra days prior to Viking cruise during the month of December 2023. We are considering doing this tour. Did you have a good overall experience. We are 78 get around fine, some minor mobility problems. We can get into motor boats ok, but might have trouble with a canoe. We walk at a little slower pace and need to rest every mile or so. Would you still recommend. This tour. Do you have any other suggestions for nature, Rainforest and 'Bird related activities or guides in Manaus? We will be with another couple. We will see the city on the free tour offered by Viking. We would appreciate any suggestions.

Thanks Peregrina651 and Katlew, that clears up my question.

We are traveling with another couple. When making an advanced specialty dinner reservations, is it possible to make a reservation for four, or does it have to be for two?
