Day 1 (OCT 12, 2025): Belem, Brazil

Departs at 5:00pm

Belém, the capital of Pará in northern Brazil, is a vibrant city known for its rich Amazonian culture, colonial architecture, and culinary delights. Located at the mouth of the Amazon River, it offers visitors a unique mix of urban and natural attractions. Visitors can explore the famous Ver-o-Peso Market, where exotic Amazonian fruits, spices, and local crafts are sold, or take a boat ride along the river to visit the nearby islands and mangroves. Belem's colonial history is reflected in landmarks like the Forte do Castelo and the Basilica of Our Lady of Nazareth, while its lush parks, such as Mangal das Garças, offer a glimpse of the region's biodiversity. The city also hosts the annual Círio de Nazaré, one of the largest religious festivals in Brazil.

Day 5 (OCT 16, 2025): Santarem, Brazil

Situated at the confluence of the Amazon River and the Tapajos River, Santarém provides easy access to two of Brazil's most significant waterways. The city's laid-back daily life offers a relaxed backdrop for exploration. Santarém enjoyed prosperity during the Rubber Boom Era in the late 1800s, and even attracted the attention of Henry Ford. He invested substantially in the city, establishing the town of ''Fordlandia''. This commercial venture was designed to harvest and export rubber for his burgeoning vehicle industry's tire manufacturing.

INCLUDED EXPEDITIONS:
Ponta Negra/Santarém Nature Exploration by Zodiac
Navigate the narrow channel opposite the city of Santarém; this channel meanders along Ponta Negra, a quaint peninsula nestled between the Amazon and Tapajos Rivers. Witness the mesmerizing flooded forest, a thriving ecosystem teeming with tropical birds. By the end of this expedition, you'll gain a deeper understanding of how local people harmoniously live, interact, and utilize this environment.

Day 8 (OCT 19, 2025): Macapa, Brazil

Capital of the Amapá state in northern Brazil, Macapá is located in the Amazon delta along the river’s northern channel where it feeds into the Atlantic. It also sits directly on the Equator, a distinction marked by the 98-foot-high Marco Zero monument where you can stand astride the Northern and Southern hemispheres. Portuguese settlers established an outpost here in the early 18th century; the Fortaleza de São José, dating from 1782, stands as a symbol of the city’s colonial past and one of the best-preserved military structures in Brazil. Macapá — which is accessible only by boat or plane — serves as a pitstop for migrating birds, seen feeding alongside flamingos, ibises, and other local species that inhabit its rich wetlands. Surfers flock here for a chance to ride the Pororoca, one of the longest tidal bores in the world with waves that reach 12 feet in height. Less extreme activities include relaxing on a wide river beach like Fazendinha and Araxá, browsing Casa de Artesão for unusual handcrafts made by the area’s indigenous people, and visiting the nearby village of Apa do Curiaú, home to descendants of escaped slaves.
