A great way to explore the mighty Amazon River is by picking up a cruise in Manaus.
The river boat is a fantastic viewing platform that docks at a different spot each day, offering flexible
itineraries that allow you to reach the best trails depending on the time of year.
The Amazon and its tributaries make up the largest water system on the planet, a paradise for birdwatchers and nature
lovers. 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 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.
A cruise is a good option for those who like adventure with all the comfort of an all inclusive cruise.
