I’ve been exploring the world since I was a teenager, and first fell in love with the Amazon when I participated in the longest raft race in the world down the Amazon River itself—on a balsa wood raft built with my own fair hands! Needless to say, I didn’t win, but spending so long on this majestic and mystical waterway amid its lush, wildlife-rich riverbanks, adventures down which I had dreamt about since childhood, was so enchanting that I’ve been under its spell ever since.

The rainforests of the world are so full of energy, so vibrant and enthralling, and traveling by boat along such legendary waterways really evokes those bygone days of exploration. It’s not hard to imagine you could be rubbing shoulders with Darwin and Wallace, seeing these places for the first time and discovering species as yet unknown to science. Each journey is so unique, you could visit the same place a dozen times and still feel that thrill and awe as you head out on excursion, not knowing what you’ll encounter around the next meander in the river.

To have the chance to help like-minded travelers experience these remote and remarkable destinations is a real privilege, and to visit and promote these destinations a true joy, a passion which I share with my talented colleagues who live or have lived in the destinations we offer. If you want insider knowledge you can’t find anywhere else and desire a tailor-made trip of-a-lifetime, then you’re in the right place—and right hands—with Rainforest Cruises.
