A place that is larger than life, the Amazon comprises half of the world’s remaining rainforest, whilst the Amazon River is the second longest in the world.
Home to more species of wildlife per square kilometre than its African or Asian counterparts, the Amazon rainforest is positively humming with life. Butterflies the size of birds, brightly coloured Makaws, comical Tucans and an array of cheeky monkeys frequent the tree tops, whilst Anacondas, Coatis, Capybara and Jaguars are among the lowland neighbours. Add to that 2.5 million species of insects and you can understand why an Amazon Jungle tour would be an experience of a lifetime.
Navigating the River is by far the most popular way to tour the Amazon. As well as being a convenient way to travel it is also very rewarding. You may be greeted by one of the enigmatic pink river dolphins, locals will wave excitedly as you cruise past and enormous trees will stand sublime on the river banks welcoming you to your Lodge.
Whether enjoying a Peruvian Amazon tour in Puerto Maldanado, Manu or Iquitos, a Bolivian tour in Rurrenabaque, a Brazilian tour in Manaus or an Ecuadorian tour in the remote Kapawi region, you won’t be disappointed. You may choose a luxury Amazon River tour on-board a first-class cruiser or stay in one of our chosen community run, eco-friendly lodges. Either way, you will get up close and personal with this enigmatic part of the world.
