Giving You a Unique and Secret Adventure

Have you ever been to the secret spots of the Amazon? Have you ever caught nine different species of fish (including the mighty peacock bass) in one day? Have you ever stepped onto the jungle floors of the biggest rainforest in the world? Have you ever visited native river-side villages and partaken of exotic fruits? Have you ever held a small alligator? Have you ever seen pink river dolphins jump along side your boat? Have you ever watched eagles, parrots, and king fishers swoop down from the sky? Have you ever heard a monkey echo its voice through the forest? Have you ever seen a more diverse place in your whole life?

If you haven't, well, now you can... Big Amazon Fish takes you to the secret spots of the Amazon and does so with confidence, safety, and reliability. Our team is dedicated to giving you an exciting, safe, and comfortable adventure in these special insider areas.

From Manaus, Big Amazon Fish takes you on adventurous journies to many tributaries of the Amazon including the Rio Uatuma, Rio Negro, and Pantanal regions of Brazil. These areas are some of the last secret spots of the Amazon. Only few know of its beauty and abundance in fish and wildlife. Big Amazon Fish is fortunate to have members of its team who are native to this area and have lived and fished on these waters for the past 25 years. We also know many of the indiginous people who live in these areas. With this insider knowledge-base, Big Amazon Fish can give you one of the most exciting and unique adventures of your life. Let Big Amazon Fish take you to the Amazon!


Giving You an International Perspective

We pride ourselves in bringing many cultures together. Big Amazon Fish is both an American and Brazilian owned and operated company. This perspective allows us to give you an experience that is optimized for both your local and international needs and desires.

And we all get to experience a union like never before... Imagine two cultures coming together in peace, excitement, and understanding... Discover your secret spot on the Amazon!

Giving You a Dedicated Foundation

Big Amazon Fish founders, Ben Nolte and Amazon-native Naldo Esteves, met each other in Brazil in 1995. From that time forward they have developed their relationship into what it is today - partners in an exciting adventure-tourism business!
