Sixty percent of the Amazon Basin lies within Brazil. At least half of each country, Peru, Bolivia and Ecuador lie within Amazonia and about one fourth of Colombia and one fifth of Venezuela are contained within the basin. The world's greatest river, Amazon, flows 4,000 miles from its headwaters in the Peruvian Andes to the Atlantic Ocean. It pours more water into the sea than the next seven largest rivers on earth combined. Although it rivals the Nile in length, it carries at least 50 times the volume of water. It disgorges 20 percent of all fresh water entering the world’s oceans and dumps one thousand million tons of sediment into the ocean every year.

Amazon Rainforest Cruise aboard the M/Y Tucano
The Amazon River is 7 miles wide near Manaus. It drains a 2.3 million square mile basin that contains the earth's largest tract of tropical forest. 60% of this region, known as Amazonia, lies within Brazil, and has beckoned explorers since the Spaniard Orellana first navigated the river in 1542. Using an air-conditioned, 18-passenger riverboat as our base, we watch for birds in the treetops, study plants in the forest, swim off of white sand beaches, fish for piranha in black water streams, search for caiman at night, and visit local river communities. view details
