Travel to Brazil

There are many travel options to consider when flying to Manaus International Airport. There are non-stop flights from Ft. Lauderdale, Panama, Lisbon, Bogota, Rio de Janeiro and Sao Paulo to Manaus.

Plan to arrive in Manaus at least one day before your scheduled departure to Kendjam.
We strongly recommend booking your international flights to arrive in Brazil with ample time to make your connection to Manaus. If you arrive in Manaus later than Saturday at 5:00 a.m., you will miss the scheduled charter flight to Kendjam and will need to arrange a private plane transfer.

Remember, all arriving guests must collect their luggage at their first point of entry into Brazil for immigration, customs clearance, and re-check to their final destination.
Your bags will not be checked directly to Manaus if it is not your first landing point in Brazilian territory.

Once you arrive at Manaus International Airport, our host will be waiting for you for immediate transfer to Juma boutique hotel located in a very nice part of the town.

Baggage

Please do not bring unnecessary weight to the camp. We use charter planes for air transfers to and from the camp and we strictly enforce weight limitations. You will be able to leave items not needed in camp with the hotel concierge in Manaus if you are returning to the hotel at the end of the week. We recommend this for travelling clothes, etc. The camp has daily laundry service, so bringing a lot of clothing is not necessary. There is a strictly-enforced 40-pound weight restriction per person for the charter flights. Please avoid HARD BODY LUGGAGE.
