Another side of Elso Lima

Hi all, Sorry for the English, we are still in Brazil... We arrived to Manaus, and in order to choose the guide we read all the comments in Gringo, and all the recommendations about Elso Lima We were waiting for him for 3 days and paid double price, due to all the recomandations in the site For us it was a big (if not to say huge) mistake Yes, he leaved in the jungle for many years, but since than he saw too many tourism and money in front of his eyes I felt duty to write this comment, cause from all the trecks and tours ever (and we did many), he was the most not nice guide that I have ever met He never smiles, not nice (especially for weman), and all the compare on the site between him and Mogly are really really far from the truth He told to everyone in the groups, 3 times a day, to not say to the others how much he pays, until we told him that this is nature and not business On the third day I became alergic to something and I told him that I need a doctor, and the first thing he said was: fucking shit, Im not going to bring you back the money, and he didn´t On the lodge in the nights we met groups from Ámazone Riders´and ´Gero´which were making the same tour like ours, with a really really nice guides, and for half price We were so sorry for taking him My recomandation is: If you want to do a real jungle experience for ten days inside the jungle, maybe he is the one, cause he is really tuff guy otherwise, for all the regular tours and activities, We really don´t see any reason to pay double price for Elso Lima. Have fun and take care, Limor and Roy
