Embark on a Journey of Discovery
Operating two luxurious river vessels, Akakonda Amazon Cruises will transport you along pristine waterways to some of the most diverse and secluded corners of the Ecuadorian Amazon.
Promising comfort and style in the depths of the wilderness, sister river boats Anakonda and Manatee carry 40 and 30 passengers respectively. Both come beautifully appointed with air-conditioned, river-facing cabins, private bathrooms and ample social areas that include a dining room, lounge and sun deck where you can drink in the wonderful rainforest views. For a slightly more classic feel, the Anakonda has additional concierge services and a la carte dining menus.
Venturing deep into the Ecuadorian Amazon on 4, 5 and 8-day itineraries, guests have the opportunity to explore four different protected areas including Yasuni National Park, the Cuyabeno Reserve, Limoncocha Biological Reserve and Pañacocha Biological Corridor. With activities that include exciting nocturnal rainforest walks with expert naturalist guides, birdwatching, kayaking and insightful interactions with the region’s indigenous communities, each itinerary offers ample opportunity to immerse yourself in these incredible regions. You’ll be able to explore smaller channels, and get even closer to wildlife on motorised canoes.
