Amazon Cruise

The Amazon River, surrounding nearly half of the territory of Peru, is the mightiest river in the world, flanked by vast stretches of pristine rainforest. International Expeditions has been exploring the Amazon for all of our 29 years of existence, and we continue to be amazed at all we find on our 10-day Amazon Cruise.

The rainforest canopy shelters the richest and most diverse ecosystem on Earth, making it the perfect place for an Amazon River cruise. We begin our Amazon River tour in Iquitos, the world’s furthest inland seaport. The Amazon Cruise travels upstream along the Amazon’s tributaries, going deep into the Pacaya-Samiria Reserve — the largest wetland reserve in the world.

On our exclusive Amazon itinerary, you go deeper into the reserve and as a result, you see much more. On our Amazon Voyage, we’ll look for the Amazon’s myriad forms of wildlife — monkeys, birds, sloths and other mammals, pink and gray dolphins and many more. You might even spot the endangered giant otter or the rare harpy eagle on our Amazon Cruise.

Expert local naturalist guides and an expedition leader will accompany you on your Amazon travel expeditions. Many have worked with us for more than a decade. They are extremely friendly and very knowledgeable about the Amazon, with the uncanny ability to find wildlife and the desire to share their knowledge.
