For accommodation, Manaus has a range of options from hotels to eco-lodges. In Pôrto Jofre, options are limited but the Hotel Pantanal Norte is a recommended choice. In Chapada Dos Guimarães, you can find charming eco-lodges and guest houses. It's best to book these well in advance, especially during the peak travel season.
Clothing and Essentials:
Pack lightweight clothing suitable for a tropical climate, and include a rain jacket. Mosquito repellent, sunscreen, and a hat are must-haves. Considering these are nature-focused destinations, good walking shoes are also recommended.
