The Amazon Odyssey

The Tucano motor yacht is a wonderful way to explore lesser-known tributaries of the Amazon River. The Tucano cruises are perfect for travelers who wish to go deep into the rainforest and explore the heart of wild nature. The Tucano cruise boat is a unique motor yacht.

Relax and enjoy the sights and sounds of the jungle from the upper decks or enjoy peace and quiet in your private cabin. Explore the Rio Negro and the Rio Amazonas, as well as flooded grasslands, tributaries, archipelagos, and narrow streams teeming with wildlife. You may spot macaws, monkeys, river dolphins, and more.

Note: Click the tab “Voyage to the heart of the Amazon” to see the 7-night Tucano Amazon Cruise option. You can also find out more about the Tucano, by reading about one of our Experts experience aboard the Tucano!Β

Day 1Depart Manaus for Rio Negro

Sunset over deck of Amazon river cruise ship

This afternoon, embark on the Motor Yacht Tucano in Manaus. We sail along the Rio Negro and as the vessel glides upstream we will have our first talk about Amazonian environments. By late afternoon we enter one of the world’s largest river island systems, the Anavilhanas Archipelago. The boat will weave along a winding channel with rainforest on both sides in a riot of brilliant vegetation. Weather permitting, we will go for a launch excursion in the gnarled and dense flooded forest known as the IgapΓ³. Along the river bank we may see Squirrel Monkeys and we may hear the other-worldly growls of Howler Monkeys echoing through the primitive rainforest. The Amazon has one of the greatest collection of birds in the world and we are sure to see some of these brightly colored jewels perched in the treetops.

We return to the M/Y Tucano for hors d’oeuvres on the observation deck and a toast to the rainforest sunset. Following dinner we will embark in our launches in search of nocturnal creatures such as the Caiman, the Amazon’s crocodilians. We may also see one of the large night birds such as a Potoo with its bulging eyes and large mouth adapted to swallow the huge Mariposa Moths.

Voyage to the Heart of the Amazon 6 Nights

Voyage to the Heart of the Amazon is different from all other cruises offered in the Amazon, it is an β€œexpedition cruise”. Our small groups explore far into the forest where we are able to see creatures that are hidden to other visitors. We explore some of the most untouched rainforest in all of the Amazon. Our expedition cruise is the only one that explores far into the world’s largest Amazon reserve: The Central Amazon Conservation Complex. This reserve is a UNESCO Natural World Heritage Site and encompasses tens of thousands of square miles of uninhabited wilderness. Within these trackless forests still live the creatures that have made the Amazon the object of myth and legend. Because of the exploratory nature, the small size of the groups, and especially our skilled guides, our expedition cruises enable travelers to experience the rainforest in the most detailed and authentic way possible.
