The Amazon and its tributaries make up the largest water system on the planet, a paradise for birdwatchers and nature lovers. A great way to explore the vibrant Amazon rainforest and the mighty Amazon River is by taking an expedition cruise from Manaus.
Amazon cruise
A cruise is a great option for those who like adventure with all the comfort of an all inclusive cruise and comfortable air-conditioned cabins. River boats are fantastic viewing platforms that dock at a different spot each day, offering flexible itineraries that allow you to reach the best trails depending on the time of year.
The cruises offer daily excursions on small boats or zodiacs to explore the dense vegetation. You will also come into contact with local river communities and see their traditional way of life.
All boats include guided excursions, for example the "meeting of the waters", where the dark waters of the Rio Negro join the Amazon river, jungle treks, birdwatching and observing alligators and nocturnal animals by flashlight. Full board, excluding drinks, are also included onboard.
Do ask us for details of the different itineraries available which may last from 3-7 nights.
