The Wedding of the Waters (Negro and Amazon rivers merging) is certainly a highlight if you have never seen this scenario previously. Viewing the Pink Dolphins was much more exciting.
Tour included a stop at a restaurant on the banks of the river, then a walk up some rickety steps to view the water lilies.
Organization was very good for meeting our guide (there is a wharf and a separate cruise terminal facility in Manaus, which is very confusing - which one do I go to?), getting us onto the boat and through the various stops.

Very good reception, English guide and super nice places, with the highlight being the monkeys in the jungle, they really came to you. Awesome!

I contacted Viator a couple days before my tour about details of timing on meeting the leader/group as we were docking at 9am the day of tour. The Viator rep (woman) said that was too late, that I had to be at the pick up stop 30-45 mins earlier than tour start. I told her my cruise didn't dock till 9am and she said they wouldn't wait for me and I told her I was never told to meet that early. She said it was written on my ticket and I told her it wasn't. So I told her to cancel it since i wasn't told that I had to be there so early.
