What’s a holiday in the Amazon rainforest like? Well, come to Ariau Towers Hotel in Brazil and find out! The hotel is next to the beautiful Rio Negro, or “black river”,

and it is 60km from Manaus, the largest city in the Amazon. But it’s not the location that makes the hotel unique. The hotel is 10-20 metres above the rainforest floor. That’s right, it’s a hotel in the trees!

The hotel has got eight large wooden towers with rooms for guests and many small tree houses. Eight kilometers of bridges join the different areas of the hotel. So, when guests at Ariau want breakfast, they don’t go downstairs. They have to leave their rooms and walk along small wooden bridges to the Ariau restaurant!

So, what can you do high up in the trees in the Amazon rainforest? Well, like any normal hotel, Ariau has got big swimming pools, an Internet café and shops. And simply walking around the hotel is like being in a huge zoo! You can watch the colourful parrots and monkeys in the trees of the rainforest. Then there are extraordinary activities for guests to try. Guests can swim with dolphins, take a

boat ride to see alligators or go on a rainforest tour and learn which plants they can use as medicine.

At the end of the day, guests can have dinner in one of the hotel’s restaurants and they can try lots of delicious Brazilian meals. After dinner is a good time for guests to have a coffee in a tree-top café and watch the wildlife. Guests can sit outside, but they have to watch out for the playful  monkeys. They like to eat the hotel food too!

At Ariau Towers, the staff want guests to feel welcome and have an amazing experience. Experienced staff that speak many different languages also teach guests about the importance of the environment and wildlife. Guests at Ariau have a great time. They can also learn something if they want, too!
