Accommodation - Juma features 19 intimate bungalows seamlessly nestled into the lush surroundings of the Amazon Rainforest. In order to accommodate the water levels of the wet season (often rising up to 15 meters, or 49 feet), the property was built on stilts upon solid ground resting at treetop level. The lodge is entirely ecofriendly in design and construction.
All materials used in its construction are native and found abundantly in the region, carefully extracted from the surrounding area.
Both the construction and the architectural style of the lodge reflect the techniques employed by Amazon River natives when building their own homes.

Transportations
The transportation to Juma Hotel will be passing in the hotels in Manaus between 6:30 a.m. - 7:00 a.m. to take you
up to the Ceasa Port in the Industrial District. In the Port, we will take a boat to cross the meeting of waters

The floating Pirarucu preserves and allows us to feed them, to feel its full force.
From Careiro to Massarico River, it is 60 minutes more by car in highway BR 319. This road use to connect Manaus with
Transamazônica Highway, but nowadays it practically does not exist anymore. Even BR 319 is not accessible during

into Manaus after 1:30pm will stay in a city hotel and will be picked up for the early morning transfer the following day.
When travel?
The Amazon region can be visited during the whole year. However, there are two different seasons that may be considered by the tourists:
- FULL Season ("Estação da Cheia" in Portuguese): March to August, when water levels rise up to 15 meters. This is the ideal season to visit the igapós(flood forests) in all its beauty.
- DRY season ("Estação da Seca" in Portuguese): September to February, the level of rivers reaches its lowest point, shrinking the space for fish and making fishing easier, as well as Night expedition.
Important
- Juma is located in a region of dark waters, so not proper for the proliferation of mosquitoes. By the other hand, because of its localization in the middle of the jungle, it is recommended (not required) to take yellow fever vaccines and tetanus.
- Juma has regular phone for communication.
- For limited space in transfer, we ask you not to bring luggage with more than 10kg.
- Bring swimming suite, t-shirt, two pairs of shoes, cap, sleeved shirt, trousers, insect repellant, sun block, raincoat, camera, flashlight and binoculars.
