A couple of tips if you are going to Manaus:

-   Eat the local fishes (pirarucu, tambaqui, tucunaré, matrinxã,
    jaraqui), tipically served with tucupi
-   Go see an opera in the Amazonas theatre
-   Eat xis caboclinho (bread with cheese, banana and tucumã) at
    breakfast
-   Enter the rainforest at the botanical garden
-   Go to the museu do Seringal by taking the river bus (a boat) from
    the David marina at Ponta Negra
-   Take a river bath. Other boats at the same marina will get you to
    all the beaches around Manaus
-   See the encontro das águas
