Amazon EcoBoat

An elegant and eco-friendly boutique houseboat designed for private and immersive Amazon escapes.

Overview

Experience the Amazon Rainforest like never before aboard the Amazon EcoBoat, a unique 6-person riverboat designed for privacy, comfort, and sustainable travel. Nestled on the Rio Negro in Brazil, this elegant, solar-powered riverboat combines traditional charm, contemporary design, and eco-conscious innovation to offer an unforgettable Amazon journey for families, friends, or small groups.

A Boat Designed Just for You

Custom-built for private luxury river adventures exploring the Brazilian Amazon, the Amazon EcoBoat has been meticulously redesigned by a Parisian interior designer. It features three panoramic cabins, including a children’s bunk cabin and two luxurious double cabins, all offering breathtaking 180° river views.

Relax on the top deck, where a spacious open-air lounge and dining area with 320° vistas lets you soak in the ever-changing landscapes of the Amazon. Whether sharing delectable meals, reading, or simply enjoying the sunset, every moment aboard is designed to be both comfortable and memorable.

Personalized Adventures & Authentic Encounters

Every journey on the Amazon EcoBoat is tailored to your interests. Guests can venture deep into the rainforest on immersive excursions that bring the Amazon’s stories to life. Spend a night under the stars in pop-up camps, whether in tents or hammocks, or step into the forest itself with day and night hikes led by expert naturalist guides.

Visits to riverside communities reveal local traditions and ways of life, while canoeing and skiff explorations bring you close to the Amazon’s extraordinary flora and fauna. Outings on the silent, electric-motor skiff allow for intimate wildlife observation, undisturbed by noise.

Throughout your journey, an experienced local crew ensures each activity is not only safe and seamless, but also rich in insight, connecting you more deeply with the rainforest’s biodiversity and culture.

Luxury Meets Sustainability

The Amazon EcoBoat is crafted for low-impact travel, proving that comfort and conservation can go hand in hand. Its fully solar-powered systems ensure clean, efficient energy, while an advanced water treatment system provides safe and sustainable freshwater on board. Fuel-efficient engines meet strict environmental standards, and the skiff’s electric motor allows guests to observe wildlife without disruption.

Even camp experiences are designed with care, limited to four tents that blend into the tropical landscape without the need for deforestation. Every element of the boat’s design is an invitation to connect intimately with the rainforest while ensuring its preservation for generations to come.

The Amazon EcoBoat offers an experience as rare as the river itself: a private journey for you and your companions where exploration, elegance, and environmental respect meet, and every wild encounter is authentic and every story meaningful.

Itineraries & Prices

All itineraries are subject to change due to seasonal weather conditions (and resultant variations in river and tributary water levels) affecting accessibility to locations. Thus navigation routes, times and excursions may need to be modified at the cruise captain’s or your guide's discretion.

Jungle Immersion & Overnight Adventure

AM/PM: On the second day, the journey goes deeper: a full immersion into the heart of the Amazon with the Robinson’s Jungle Adventure (weather and water levels permitting). Between mysteries and discoveries, two unique overnight experiences await, both offering an extraordinary way to connect with the jungle in harmony.

Option 1: Jungle Tent Experience

Guided by local experts, participants embark on an enchanting hike that reveals the jungle’s best-kept secrets. Along the way, they learn to identify plants that nourish and heal, and even try their hand at traditional fishing, a true return to the roots of nature. Every discovery becomes part of a wild dinner prepared from the day’s harvest and catch. As night falls, travelers settle into comfortable tents equipped with real bedding, blending adventure with a touch of comfort. Surrounded by the forest, they drift to sleep as the jungle offers its unforgettable natural sound-and-light show: a symphony of nocturnal calls under a starlit sky. At dawn, a simple yet delicious breakfast welcomes the first rays of sun, fueling the next stage of the journey.

Option 2: Survival Adventure in Hammock

The adventure begins with a guided walk, unveiling the mysteries of the forest while teaching the art of survival: lighting fires, building shelters, setting traps. Each step brings travelers closer to the raw, fascinating essence of the Amazon. Dinner with authentic local flavors is enjoyed beneath towering trees, before an extraordinary overnight in traditional jungle hammocks, complete with mosquito nets and blankets. Immersed in the living theater of the forest, guests experience the spectacular soundscape of the Amazon at night, a once-in-a-lifetime connection with nature. At sunrise, a simple but energizing breakfast celebrates the new day, preparing the group to rejoin the boat and continue their journey. For both options, if conditions require, a carefully crafted alternative ensures the same deep reconnection with nature. Sailing to a secluded part of the forest, travelers of all ages will discover the Amazon in its purest form.
