New Review on TA
“Time in Santarem? Spend it with Gil!”
Our cruise ship had less than a full day's stop in Santarem. About
sixteen of us preferred to take an independent tour rather than the
excursions offered by the ship. We were so fortunate to book our time
with Gil Serique. Gil's day tour was informative, relaxing, lots of fun,
and downright amazing. We saw all that we'd hoped for - pink dolphins,
interesting birds, a sloth, meeting of the waters.... We experienced a
walk through the forest and were served local food and drink. The
refreshments were prepared and served by the local people who work with
Gil. Those guests who wanted to, transferred to smaller craft for a
different perspective of the Maica Lake nooks and crannies.
Almost as impressive as the actual tour, was the organization and professionalism of Gil and his staff. They managed to give the guests a great day, despite the varying ages, physical capabilities, and languages of the participants. Originally, I sent an email query to Gil and received an immediate response. He provided reading suggestions and links to various informative sites. I booked by sending another email with the details of the ship's arrival and departure.
Gil's love for his Amazon/Tapajos area is contagious. We finished the day with a new appreciation for the area and its people. Thank you Gil.

Prinsendam Alter do chao
Gil,
I do not know how to express my gratitude for your
graciousness and generosity or pleasure in your genuinely warm and
carefree personality. You are all we have talked about since we left
your home and I know will be the topic of conversation for days, months
and years to come. Thank you so very much.
Everyone was so impressed with Alex as well. He has an
unmatched depth of knowledge and an abiding love for people and nature. I
wish him and his beautiful girlfriend the very best in life.
Be assured we will recommend you highly, not only as a guide but as a human being, to anyone who asks.
Best, Rich

Helping others learn about and appreciate the
Amazon is my
passion.
The tour, which is very different from what others offer, includes an
authentic Amazon boat cruise to the extraordinary meeting of the
Tapajos and Amazon rivers. We will also explore the Floodplain, where
we will see many species of birds. And I guarantee that we will see
Three-toed Sloths and Pink Dolphins!

Here is a
link to my little e-bookhttps://www.amazon.com/Essential-Wildlife-Cruiseship-Passengers-Amazon-ebook/dp/B01F2LEN68
. When you buy one it guarantees you a printed copy on arrival. Very most of
the wildlife you will see during your cruise is selected.
This area was also explored by the famous Victorian biologists Bates, Wallace, and Spruce. Several American Confederates moved here, as well as the infamous British 'rubber thief' Henry Wickham."
If you like fishing we do have the time for it and we provide basic
rods and line.
During the tour we serve Brazil nuts, cashew nuts, fish snacks,
bottled drinks, the freshest lemonade, some beer, ice-cream and (I
promise) the very best caipirinhas.
I would like to suggest you getting Joe Jackson’s The Thief at the End
of the World. It is an amazing reading to have during your cruise. I
also worked with Joe Jackson and Redmond O'Hanlon on the documentary
you can access by the link below.

The price is 130 dollars per person.
