The Amazon

Into the world's greatest rainforest

Why The Amazon

The Amazon is the largest rainforest on Earth and holds a staggering share of its species. From the river-city of Manaus you slip into a world of flooded forests, pink dolphins, caimans and birdsong, the planet at its most alive.

We match you to the right base, a jungle lodge or a river boat, and build days around the wildlife and wonders, from the Meeting of the Waters to canopy walks and night safaris.

  • Meeting of the WatersThe dark Rio Negro and sandy Solimões run side by side for kilometres before mixing.
  • Pink river dolphinsThe legendary boto, found only in these rivers.
  • Jungle lodgesSleep over the water and wake to the forest.
  • Caiman night safarisSpotlight the river after dark with a local guide.
  • Teatro AmazonasManaus's belle-époque opera house, built in the rubber boom.
  • Anavilhanas & giant liliesA vast river archipelago and Victoria amazonica water lilies.

Best time to go

Two seasons shape the trip: the high-water 'flooded forest' (roughly December–May, ideal for canoeing among the treetops) and the low-water season (June–November, with river beaches and easier wildlife spotting).

Accessibility

Amazon lodges and boats vary widely; we vet and confirm accessible vessels, boardwalks and rooms for each traveler, never a blanket promise.
