Available Boats:

Traditional Clipper Boat

The Traditional Fleet contains several boats with basic comfort and facilities, such as air-conditioned cabins with private toilet, covered dining room with bar and library and a 360° view sundeck. Our boat like the "AMAZON CLIPPER", is an Amazon riverboat with traditional lines

Premium Boat

For those who wish the comfort of a luxury ship, the Premium Fleet offers “simply the best” small-ship cruising in the Amazon.

Both categories were designed exclusively for cruising on the Amazon River and its tributaries. Using years of experience on other tour boats we made several design innovations to make them as comfortable as possible and still offer a perfect interaction with nature.
The shallow draught allows us to visit locations inaccessible to many other boats and the outboard powered canoes that we carry are used for trips in lagoons, narrow channels, creeks and flooded forest.
