Teatro Amazonas is an opera house in Manaus, located in the heart of the Amazon rainforest. It is a stunning building inside and out and particularly beautiful at night. It was so suprising finding a theatre like this in such a remote location and the tour we had was brilliant. Definitely recommend going if you ever find yourself in Manaus on the way in to the Amazon - be sure to take the guided tour which is available in English.

The staff were very helpful and excellent. Illeana could afford to smile a bit more, though. Roni was an excellent and hardworking guide. Lilliani was a very intelligent young girl with a lot of charm and enthusiasm. The meals prepared by her mother were good. The grilled fish prepared by Roni in the jungle was excellent. Saw some wildlife - macacas do cheiro, the big one maybe a spider monkey and a porco do espinha (as well as a Vagalumi and a few birds). The sounds of the jungle were amazing.
The water pump is way too noisy, by the way.
