Hotels in Amazonas, Brazil

Amazonas is Brazil's largest state, sitting smack in the heart of the Amazon rainforest, where the climate is hot and humid year-round (80-90°F or 27-32°C). The region is famous for the mighty Amazon River and the world's biggest tropical jungle. In the dry season from June to November, you can hike through the jungle near Manaus to spot pink river dolphins, or fish for piranha in the Rio Negro. During the wet season from December to May, high water lets you kayak through flooded forests and visit the Meeting of the Waters, where the dark Rio Negro and sandy Amazon River flow side by side without mixing.
