Amazônia Expeditions Brazil, a river expedition company, that has been in the travel business for over 40 years taking different groups of people to get to know the real Amazon, with carefully designed itineraries to take care of the demands and expectations of the most varied groups of tourists visiting the Brazilian Amazon.
What’s new is that we are now offering two new, exclusive itineraries, designed by our very own Moacir Fortes Junior, with his empiric knowledge as a biologist, tour guide and Amazon expeditioner, who has accompanied groups for so many years, has created these two new itineraries as a mean to show visitors who have a short time to visit, more of the biodiversity found here, as well as motivate enthusiasm for conservation and preservation of the different areas visited by the groups.
These two new itineraries, the Amazonia Senses Expedition and the Amazonia Bliss Expedition, have regular outings, in both Amazonian seasons, so that those wishing to venture the rivers and amazonian pathways are able to, be it dry or wet season, following the tradition of Amazon vessels, with comfort and safety.
A 5-day/4-night of expedition, with a unique and carefully-thought itinerary which is a true temptation to our five senses with visitations to different locations as means to take maximum advantage of what each biome has to offer, their specificities and biodiversity taken into account, also including visitations to local communities to experience a little of their lifestyle which is so unique to the Amazon communities.
A mix of nature, culture, curiosities, adventure and leisure, all in one itinerary.
Our team is made of caboclos, biologists, and tourism experts working together to bring guests the most complete Amazon Expedition with know-how, experience and passion for the greatest rainforest in the world.
Amazônia Expeditions Brazil has been developing this work enthusiastically since 1980 when Moacir Fortes, our founder, began leading small groups in tailor-made incursions through the forest.
Being in the travel market for over 40 years, sailing the Amazon rivers, we are also known for designing river tours with customized itineraries. We not only organize regular day tours for first-time visitors, but we also design carefully thought, detailed oriented tours even with the demands of specialized knowledge, such as technical knowledge on botanic, ornithology, primatology, etc.
The Amazon is part of the imagination of many. Known from geography books to cinema and TV screens with so many films and documentaries presenting the great forest, the “lungs” of the world, the greatest biodiversity in the world.
Visiting this great mystery so worldly recognized has become much simpler over the years, but it is still very important to know the true paths of the forest in order to be able to say that you really know the Amazon.
Live the life found in books and movies, live the real Amazon with Amazonia Expeditions Brazil.
Did you know we actually have two Amazons in one? If you visit the Amazon in November and the Amazon in June, for instance, you will meet two very different places. Still met with great biodiversity, incredible nature and memories to be created of such a spectacle of a place. What happens is we have a dry season and wet season, in one you will see the great rivers become beaches and flooded forests become pathways and the other is just the opposite, much more water all around.
Thinking of the desire to venture the rivers and paths of the forest, Amazonia Expeditions Brazil created these two new itineraries that show the real Amazon, respecting its demands and characteristics, but still allowing a visit to be filled with emotions and a temptation to all the senses.
Amazonia Bliss and Amazonia Senses Expeditions are exactly that: Emotions and Senses.
Have you ever pictured yourself getting to know, going on an adventure and having the real and unique once in a lifetime experience in the Amazon?
Amazonia Bliss Expedition offers five days exploring river beaches, waterfalls, youth fountains and communities.
Bliss as that feeling of full happiness left when experiencing something as unique as the 5 days of expedition can be, expedition through the beaches, rapids, swimming in rivers that leave us feeling younger, local communities where nature and culture mix, paths filled with history and biodiversity found only when the rivers are as low as they can be in the “dry season”. A blissful experience filled with visits only made possible by the low levels of the rivers.
Amazonia Senses Expeditions offers five days exploring the waterways and jungle to bring a new nuance to your senses.
Senses are our five senses attuned after five days of such close contact with nature, experiencing life in an indigenous community, their culture, agriculture and handcrafts, visits to lakes, creeks and floating forests in the middle of rivers, meeting amphibians, birds, primates, the sounds of the forest waking us up and following us at night, the flavors of fish, Mani flour, so unique and special. Those five days are enough to make the heart sure this is the real Amazon we just visited.Only possible when the rivers are high.
