Brazil Amazon Basin

Near Manaus, Rio Solimoes and Rio Negro converge to form the Amazon.

The distinctively coloured yellow and black waters of these two separate rivers can be seen for several miles before they finally coalesce. Even here, some 1,000 miles from the sea, the mighty Amazon is already over five miles wide.

The sheer vastness of the Amazon Basin and its array of wildlife makes a stay here a unique experience. During your stay, you can enjoy days walking with biologist guides and taking boat trips along peaceful rivers. You can expect to see an amazing selection of animals, birds and plants.

There are several ways to experience the wonders of the Amazon in hotels, lodges and onboard cruises.
