Rio de Janeiro

Rio de Janeiro (River of January) is the second largest city in Brazil with a population of 6.3 million. Rio is the most visited city in the southern hemisphere and is known for its natural settings, carnival celebrations, samba and beaches such as Copacabana and Ipanema. Some of the most famous landmarks include the giant statue of Christ the Redeemer (one of the modern Seven Wonders of the World) at 130 feet tall and built between 1922 to 1931 atop Corcovado mountain, rising 700 metres above sea level. Also Sugarloaf Mountain, which is 396 meters high, above the harbour with its cable car famously featured in the James Bond Movie “Moonraker”.

Make your way to the airport for your evening flight to Manaus. Then check in at your hotel for an overnight stay.

Manaus

Manaus marks the furthest point that most cruise ships can reach up the Amazon. It is situated approximately 900 miles upriver from the coast at a major fork of the Amazon where the Rio Solimoes meets the Rio Negro to form the main Amazon River. Enjoy the mesmerizing spectacle of the meeting of the waters where the cooler sandy-coloured water of the Amazon River and the warmer and clearer black water of the Rio Negro collide. You would expect two rivers that meet to blend into one another but that is not the case here as the two types of water flow distinctly side by side for a further 6km beyond Manaus.

After breakfast embark the boat. Enjoy a guided tour of Manaus, the gateway to the Amazon rainforest. A peaceful city with unique architecture, you'll explore its historic center and pass by the famous Amazonas Opera House. You'll stroll through the Adolpho Lisboa Market, a striking wrought-iron structure located on the banks of the RioNegro. Visit the Manaus Opera House, or Teatro Amazonas, a Renaissance-style architectural masterpiece inaugurated in 1896. A short cruise will bring you to Vila Paraiso, where you’ll visit the Rubber Museum. We’ll return on board and begin cruising on the Rio Negro, a major South American river stretching 2,250 km and one of the main tributaries of the Amazon. We’ll introduce our crew at a welcome cocktail. Dinner and overnight onboard your ship.

RV Brasilian Dream

Designed as a catamaran to minimize its impact on riverbeds, this brand new River cruise vessel embodies a new vision of the Amazon, blending comfort with eco-responsibility. Launched in 20026 it carries 32 passengers in 14 staterooms, over 4 decks at 49 metres long by 15 metre wide. It features a restaurant, spa, sundeck and lounge bar; and sustainable materials, low-carbon engines, and solar panels for clean energy. Onboard water treatment ensures responsible resource management, and every design choice aims to preserve the fragile river ecosystem. More than a cruise, it is an invitation to experience the rhythm of nature while respecting its delicate balance. Each passenger becomes both actor and spectator of an extraordinary journey, as the Amazon unveils itself along the water, between mystical mists and blazing sunsets.

Stateroom Amenities: • 220V Electricity • TV • Hair dryer • Safe • Individual air-conditioning • Bathroom with shower and bathroom amenities • Wi-Fi

At dawn, you'll explore the Rio Negro aboard a private boat, just as the birds take flight—macaws, parrots, and even fish eagles. With some luck, you may spot the grey river dolphins (Tucuxi) or the elusive pink dolphins. Return on board for breakfast. Then, set off on a forest walk to discover the astonishing diversity of the flora: hardwoods, palms, and vines. We’ll return on board and begin cruising toward “Três Bocas.” In the late afternoon, head out again aboard a private boat to observe the wildlife and stunning scenery around Lago da Pescada. We’ll be cruising toward the Anavilhanas Archipelago. Dinner and overnight onboard your ship.

Rio Negro

The Rio Negro, the world’s largest blackwater river, flows from Colombia into Brazil, meeting the Amazon at Manaus. Its dark waters, tinted by tannins from forest vegetation, host unique aquatic life and create the famous Meeting of the Waters, where it runs beside the Solimões without mixing. It stretches about 2,250 km and supports vast ecosystems, including the Anavilhanas Archipelago.

Departure for a hike through primary rainforest toward the Madada Caves. The rock engravings carved in relief by ancient tribes are over 3,000 years old. During the walk, you'll be introduced to the region’s rich plant biodiversity and learn about the many trees and vines used in indigenous medicine. In the mid-afternoon, you'll board a private motorized boat for a wildlife observation excursion. Keep an eye out for snowy egrets, macaws, and fish eagles. We'll be cruising toward the Meduini River. Dinner and overnight onboard your ship.

Madada Caves

The Madadá Caves, located in the Anavilhanas National Park near Novo Airão, are sandstone cave formations reached by a 1.2 km rainforest trail along the Rio Negro. Visitors encounter striking rock walls, ancient rock engravings, forest wildlife, and views of flooded forests and igarapés. Accessible by boat from Manaus, the caves offer a unique mix of geology, nature, and Amazonian heritage.
