Authentic and immersive adventure cruising in the Amazon aboard the only Luxury Catamaran in the region, the La Jangada
(TRAVPR.COM) USA - October 17th, 2018 -
Construction of the new La Jangada catamaran began on April 2, 2018. The 12 and 13-day adventure itineraries expect to be operational by April 2019 and will cruise through Brazil, Peru and Colombia. La Jangada will have 12 luxurious and spacious cabins on board, each with a private bathroom and large windows that look out on to the river. Guests will taste local Amazonian cuisine in the ship’s restaurant and enjoy lounge time on the comfortable sun deck and bar areas. This cruise is the only luxury tourist catamaran operating in the Amazon region. The Jangada cruise is also one of the most culturally immersive cruises, with an exclusive itinerary that visits three countries: Brazil, Peru and Colombia.
The La Jangada cruise will offer two types of itineraries, a 12-day itinerary that will cruise from Manaus, Brazil to Tefe, Brazil and a 13-day itinerary that cruises from Manaus, Brazil to Leticia, Colombia. Leticia is also known as the city of Three-Frontiers, as it borders Brazil, Peru and Colombia. These itineraries are very unique to the Amazon region due to their length and remoteness. Travelers short on time have the option to take the itinerary in shorter 5-day and 8-day segments.
“The name La Jangada means The Raft in Portuguese. It’s named after Jules Verne’s book about an exciting adventure aboard a giant raft sailing between Iquitos and Belem. Inspired by the book, the Jangada river cruise was specifically designed for the Amazon River and Rio Negro. It’s an exploration cruise where guests will enjoy daily world class excursions and a total cultural immersion!” - Jeremy Clubb, Director of Rainforest Cruises
