Novo Airão, located about 180 km from Manaus, is a true paradise hidden in the heart of the Amazon. Bathed by the majestic Negro River and the gateway to the Anavilhanas Archipelago, one of the largest river archipelagos in the world, the municipality stands out as one of the most fascinating destinations for those seeking ecotourism, riverside culture, and unforgettable experiences amidst the forest.

A little history: the origin of Novo Airão

The municipality of Novo Airão originated as a Jesuit mission in the 17th century and was officially founded in 1668.

Its strategic location on the banks of the Negro River established Novo Airão as a logistical and commercial hub, but it was with the rise of ecotourism that the city gained national and international notoriety.
