The Amazon cruise vessel Tucano has comfortable cabins with large beds and private baths, and is air-conditioned throughout. With their small groups (Max. 9 cabins), trained naturalist guides, and thoughtful itineraries, they offer a genuine, thrilling experience with the REAL Amazon rainforest. The Tucano is a big boat, over 80 feet long. There is plenty of space to spread out, study the forest nearby, and contemplate the wonders of nature. All of the 9 cabins are comfortable and most have individual beds while others have above and below beds. The Salon serves as their vessel library and dining room. The top deck is open and has a large sun canopy - a wonderful place to spot wildlife or soak in the vastness of the Amazon.

There is both a 110 volt and a 12 volt electrical system throughout the boat and a reading light above every bed. Prices include accommodations, guided excursions, and meals as indicated.

The meals are not gourmet, but wholesome, filling and delicious and many types of Amazon Fruits are served. The ship's cooks rise before dawn to make a large breakfast and there is always a tantalizing scent coming out of the Galley.
This trip explores some of the most untouched rainforest in all of Amazon. On the expedition vessel, the Motor Yacht Tucano we venture far up the least inhabited river in the Amazon Basin: The Rio Negro. We explore areas very rarely visited and seek out the mysterious life of the wilderness that stirs in the forest and in the heart of wild nature. Heart of Amazonia is the most thorough, detailed, and sophisticated trip offered in the entire Amazon. Guides are accomplished naturalists and we see creatures almost never seen by other visitors. The trip is rather like being on a time machine in that we are able to visit places that have not changed for millions of years. Truly the trip of a lifetime.
