Jungle Experiences
Perfectly equipped with exterior-view cabins, the Amatista Expedition ensures that every traveler can enjoy an authentic Amazon experience without compromising comfort and rest. Guests are invited to admire the immensity of the rainforest in unique ways—stargazing from the observation deck, relaxing to the rhythm of the river’s gentle sway, and breathing in the fresh Amazonian air while immersing themselves in the jungle’s mystique.
Cabin Specifications
The Amatista accommodates 31 passengers across 15 cabins, including 14 double cabins and 1 triple cabin. Each measures 16 m² (170 ft²) and is furnished with either two twin beds or one queen bed, a private bathroom with shower, air conditioning, and exterior view windows. Additional amenities include a desk, wardrobe, chest of drawers, dresser, hairdryer, and an amenities basket. All cabins feature smoke detectors and 24-hour hot water.
