Amazon River Cruises
Ready to discover the awe-inspiring natural beauty and culture of South America on an
Amazon River cruise? Whether you are looking for adventurous expedition-style trips
to the heart of the Amazon or luxury cruises with a more relaxed Amazon experience,
we can help you find the perfect Amazon River cruise.
The most exploratory Amazon River cruises travel the Upper Amazon River by expedition
vessel and normally cruise roundtrip from Iquitos, Peru to Manaus, Brazil (or vice
versa), and visit ports like Leticia, Colombia and Lago Sao Paulo. On these exciting
journeys, you will cruise Amazon River tributaries by Zodiac or even local canoes,
and you are sure to spot exotic wildlife and a vast array of indigenous people.
Five and six-star ships cruise the Amazon River as part of longer Caribbean and
South America itineraries and typically begin or end in Manaus, Brazil, the capital
of the State of Amazonas. Between Manaus and the Atlantic, your Amazon River cruise
will likely visit Santarem to view the "wedding of the waters" where the
Tapajos and Amazon rivers meet but don't mix for miles. Typical
shore excursions include visits to Boca da Valeria, where you can barter
for goods and observe Amazon Indians living as they did hundreds of years ago, or to
Parintins, a small village on Tupinambarana Island known for the Boi-Bumba festival,
a ritual of magic, mystery, passion and faith that has been held for over 80 years.
We've been helping folks find the right Amazon River cruise since 1984.
