The Gentle Amazon and the Tapajós River

An enchanting and intimate cruise to the Amazon's most beautiful beaches (port-to-port cruise)



Tour Description:

Embark on a unique adventure along the Amazon aboard the Brasilian Dream, a charming boat with an intimate capacity of just 32 guests. This exclusive cruise invites you to discover the Amazon rainforest under rare conditions, blending high-end comfort, a warm atmosphere, and authentic immersion.

Along the river, each stop reveals a lesser-known facet of this fascinating region: indigenous villages, flooded forests, abundant wildlife, and living traditions. The Amazon becomes gentle, almost dreamlike, where vast white sandbanks stretch endlessly, bordered by the clear waters of the Tapajós. These ephemeral shores, bathed in light, offer a unique setting to observe nature.

Every evening is a spectacle itself, as the sky ignites in golden and orange hues, bathing the forest in a warm glow—a living painting of breathtaking beauty. From Santarém, the jewel of the Tapajós, to the meeting of the Amazon and Rio Negro rivers in Manaus, you’ll explore the region aboard private boats, guided by passionate experts.

On the agenda: human encounters, nighttime rituals, walks in primary forest, and privileged observation of Amazonian biodiversity. This rare experience combines cultural discovery, wild beauty, and moments suspended in time — a deeply human and sensory journey, flowing to the soothing rhythm of the Amazon waters.
