Samir Zen

I enjoy the Amazon and have visited 4 times.  On my last trip, I met with Samir "Sammy" after a peacock bass trip.  I had a few extra days in Manaus and had a list of things I wanted to do.  Sammy made sure we were able to see the things that was on my list and even suggested a few other great things to see with some of the time between events. Rio Negro, Juma River, Presidente Figueiredo were great places to visit but if you have time check out Sammy's City tour as well.  It was well worth it especially if you are visiting with young kids. My Portuguese isn't very good but that is not a problem with Sammy because his English is excellent.  I have visited the Amazon with several guides and have even been abandoned by a very popular Amazon guide.   I was well taken care of by Sammy and consider him one of the best guides I have encountered and I plan on using his services on my future visits.  I have the most confidence in him and have no problem recommending him.  I hope you get to see and enjoy the Amazon and all it has to offer with Sammy, you may find yourself leaving the Amazon with a new friend.
