ON BOARD THE AMAZON DREAM,
MAKE YOUR JOURNEY ON THE
AMAZON AN UNFORGETTABLE
EXPERIENCE
Quality accommodations, tailor-made programs, the fruits of our quest
for originality and authenticity, specialized guides, incomparable natural riches of the sites along the way...
These are among the advantages of the Amazon Dream to help you discover and love Amazonia.
A SAFE, BEAUTIFUL AND COMFORTABLE BOAT
This traditional, 27.5 meter-long 90
foot-long) vessel, built of ipe and itauba
woods by the Amazon’s best shipwrights,
left the shipyards in 2006. It can
carry up to 18 passengers, and offers remarkable conditions of hospitality, service
and security. Its cruising speed is 22 knots.
SPACIOUS AND LIGHT-FILLED CABINS
The nine cabins, each decorated differently and appointed with Indian objects, offer superb
views of the landscapes traveled. Spacious, 12 by 14 square meters (130 to 150 square feet) with
ceiling height of 2.10 meters (nearly 7 feet), each cabin has its own bathroom and toilet, and is
completely air conditioned. There are even hammocks for abandoning yourself to the easy-going Brazilian
way of life.
A WARM AND REFINED ATMOSPHERE
The interior architecture of this boat puts a priority on light, on exotic woods, on the colors of fabrics and its disposition allows each guest to live at his own pace. In the dinner room, where water colors and engravings bring to life the history of Amazonia, passengers can delve passionately into accounts of the great expeditions of the past.
On the upper deck, the bar opens on to nature’s great show. There are delicious cocktails of Amazonian fruits with exotic flavors: cupuacu, acai, guarana, acerola… and the must of musts, caipirinha. And the solarium with its lounge chairs is an irresistible invitation to do absolutely nothing, rocked by the gentle waves.
ALL OF THE FLAVORS OF
AMAZONIAN CUISINE
A Brazilian chef defends with talent the
colors and savors of the local cuisine :
proposing duck with tucupi, an incredible
diversity of fish (pirarucu, tambaqui,
tucunaré) specialties of exquisite flavors
such as the manicoba, jabu, tacaca.
Fruits of the forest, including cupuacu,
bacuri, acai, pupunha, lend themselves
to the elaboration of delicious desserts.
And the ice creams of the State of Para are
among the world’s most exotic flavored with
uxi, mangaba,graviola, tapereba and Brazil nut.
Been useful on the higher bridge, the breakfast offers a profusion of sweetened and salted savours.
