Solo Travel Tips· Confident Solo

Manaus is the gateway to the Amazon — the city itself is just the launch pad. Solo travelers should book a jungle lodge through a reputable agency (2-3 nights minimum) to experience piranha fishing, night caiman spotting, and rainforest canopy walks with a guide. The famous meeting of the rivers (where the Rio Negro and Solimões don't mix for miles) is a spectacular boat trip. Yellow fever vaccination required.
