Day Trip from Manaus
Amazon Waterfalls – Presidente Figueiredo
Discover cool cascades and virgin jungle, just a short drive from the heart of Amazonia.
This full-day excursion takes you to Presidente Figueiredo waterfalls, a remarkable natural destination tucked inside primary Amazon rainforest, roughly 107 kilometers north of Manaus. You will visit two impressive cascades, swim beneath falling water, and photograph scenery that few travelers ever reach.
Presidente Figueiredo is widely known as the city of waterfalls, and that reputation is well earned. The surrounding jungle shelters dozens of cascades fed by clear Amazonian streams, and the two featured on this tour represent some of the finest examples in the region.
The drive itself passes through transitional rainforest landscapes, offering a gradual introduction to the dense vegetation and soundscape of the Amazon basin before you even set foot on a trail. The experience is suited for travelers who want genuine contact with nature without requiring advanced trekking skill.
