Explore On Board

If you are looking for the comfort of a luxury ship, while still enjoying all the benefits of a small vessel you will love cruising on the Amazon River and its tributaries aboard the MV Premium. Her 16 spacious cabins come complete with two lower beds or one queen size bed, a private bathroom with hot shower and air-conditioning making for a supremely comfortable stay.

The window-lined restaurant deck can seat all guests at the same time, serving a delicious buffet of local and international dishes to suit every taste. Above the restaurant, the dedicated leisure deck has spectacular spaces for relaxing. Take in your exotic surroundings in the outdoor deck’s whirlpools or comfy seating areas, then step inside the air-conditioned lounge area to a luxurious space specially designed for lectures, movies and guest briefings.

And the pinnacle of your guest experience can be found on the observation deck. The fantastic 360° panoramic view is the best place to observe the spectacle ‘Meeting of the Waters’ phenomenon of the Rio Negro and Solimões rivers.

Venture Further

The distinctive design of the Amazon Clipper Premium makes it uniquely placed to take you further in your exploration of the Amazon River and rainforest. The shallow draught allows visits to locations inaccessible to many other boats. Once you are deep in the jungle, you can hop onto the ship’s outboard powered canoes on guided trips through the lagoons, narrow channels, creeks and flooded forest.

Whether you choose this beautiful river cruise ship for a short 3 day journey or a longer voyage, you will enjoy unsurpassed wildlife-watching opportunities. The bilingual naturalist guides will open up the secrets of Amazon to you on canoe excursions and jungle walks, observing the native creatures and endemic plants in this labyrinth of waterways.

Luxury On Your Terms

The Amazon Clipper Premium is a great option for those who wish for real comfort onboard alongside an authentic experience of the Brazilian Amazon. Thanks to the mobility of the vessel, you can journey along the Solimões and Negro Rivers in a short time and still get a deep understanding of this beautiful and ecologically rich area.

With varying itineraries offered, if you want to enjoy the relaxed, friendly atmosphere and service of the Amazon Clipper Premium for longer, you can. Superior comfort and care are of the utmost importance for the crew. No matter where you choose to relax on deck, the ship’s perfect interaction with nature will make your once-in-a-lifetime voyage unforgettable.
