Expeditions

Sunrises in the Amazon region

 

During your stay on the Grand Amazon Expedition, you’ll be able to hike in the jungles of the Jaraqui and Manacapuru regions while learning about the survival, ecology, history, and culture of the Amazon region. You’ll also be able to go on a morning expedition to visit the Três Unidos community near the mouth of the Cuieiras River. The Kambeba people tell their story, struggles, and achievements in recovering their culture and traditions.
Sunrises in the Amazon region are a spectacle unlike any other, and you’ll be able to take in the first rays of sunshine in the morning and the first chirps of the birds. On the Ariau River, you’ll visit a family who lives in a floating house and they will show you pink Amazon river dolphins with whom they’ve established a trusting and friendly relationship over the years. 

Go deep into the jungle until sunset

 

You’ll have the chance to go deep into the Amazon jungle and take a ride on a speedboat between the four hundred islands that make up the Anavilhanas Archipelago, all while surrounded by stunning flora and fauna and a breathtaking sunset. We also offer you the opportunity to fish for piranhas in Acajatuba Lake and in the Manaquiri region, as well as to explore the narrowest canals at the end of a creek so you can try and catch these feared fish from the boats. The mixed riverside families who inhabit the area, known as caboclos, open their doors to us to share information with us about the diet, family agriculture, customs, and traditions of their community. A visit to the Vila Paraiso Rubber Plantation Museum won’t disappoint, since you’ll be able to get to know how life was on a rubber plantation.

Discover the Amazon region’s nocturnal wildlife

 

Experience the feeling of being in the middle of the jungle at night. We’ll be surrounded by the sounds of nighttime in the Amazon region, as well as its nocturnal wildlife. During your stay on board, you’ll visit the Ariau River region, the Manaquiri canal, and the Paranã do Barroso region at night. Our expert explorers will guide you on a nighttime adventure through the Amazon region so you can see crocodiles and other wild animals that are hidden during the day. You’ll share our passion for nature and learn about the wild flora and fauna that live in the jungle.
