Camping in the Amazon
Spend a night glamping in the Amazon rainforest and experience the jungle at its most atmospheric, with opportunities to discover its secrets at dusk and dawn.
Whether you stay in a first-class jungle lodge or cruise the river aboard a luxury vessel, you can enjoy the Amazon in comfort. However, these experiences inevitably provide some distance from the sights and sounds of a rainforest that never truly sleeps. On an Ecuadorian Amazon cruise aboard either the Anaconda or her sister ship Manatee, you can choose to spend a night ashore, surrounded by the dense vegetation of the rainforest. This is glamping at its finest – you’ll enjoy all the excitement of sleeping in the jungle without sacrificing comfort.
Guests travelling on the Anaconda arrive at a riverside beach by kayak, where spacious dome tents are set up with proper beds and insect-proof flooring. After a refreshing shower, enjoy a gourmet dinner prepared by the ship’s chef and served by candlelight. Your naturalist guide will introduce you to the remarkable wildlife and ecology of the rainforest, with opportunities for guided walks after dark. The following morning, paddle along secluded tributaries by kayak and experience the jungle coming to life at sunrise.
Guests travelling on the Manatee spend the night in a protected reserve, staying in rustic thatched cabins immersed in the rainforest. Relax in a hammock on your private veranda and enjoy the sounds and atmosphere of the jungle all around you.
