ECU-59 – AMAZON RIVER CRUISE: Tourist Class

OVERVIEW

The Manatee Amazon Explorer, with more than 10 years of experience navigating through the Napo River, is able to take up to 30 passengers into the most pristine areas of the Ecuadorian Amazon, where they are able to experience the natural wonders of wildlife undisturbed by modern life. All activities are led by our local nature guides who have been in the Amazon cruising business for over 20 years. Our 30 guests aboard the 98.5 foot-long M/V Manatee Amazon Explorer may enjoy a wide variety of wine and fine dining, complete with the all-inclusive comfort of a first class hotel.

Our 14 cabins are fully equipped with all necessary commodities. The observation deck and our al fresco lounge are ideal places to have a cocktail, to relax with a good book or simply enjoy the spectacular view. Travelers may book four, five, or eight-day cruises. All departures are guaranteed. The Manatee Amazon Explorer was the first ship originally designed for cruising on the Napo River. Its 14 cabins, each with an area of 97 square feet, are equipped with air conditioning and 24-hour electricity, each with a private bathroom with hot water and all necessary amenities, allowing our guests to enjoy their cruise carefree.
