Cruise passengers can cut out any currency concerns - The Cruise People is guaranteeing a fixed Euro exchange rate on two cruises onboard the comfortable 4* expedition ship MS Bremen, offering savings of up to £2500 per person sailing the South Seas on a 22-day voyage from Noumea to Papeete and around £900 per person on a 16-day cruise venturing into the upper reaches of the Amazon River.
Encounters on the Upper Amazon – April 2009
MS Bremen - the only 4* expedition ship capable of venturing into the upper reaches of the Amazon River – sets sail on 11 April 2009 from Belem at the mouth of the mighty Amazon River in northern Brazil on a 16-day cruise navigating the 1865 miles all the way to Iquitos in Peru. Still for the greater part unexplored, the Amazon rainforest is the largest and densest in the world boasting more plant and animal species than any other jungle with regular sightings of pink river dolphins, tapirs, sloths and countless exotic birds such as toucans and macaws. Exploring beneath the rainforest canopy at night – both on foot and by zodiac – offers an entirely different jungle experience. Landings on the lower Amazon include the city of Parintins on Tupinambarana, one of the largest river islands in the world and the magnificent white beaches of Alter do Chao. In the river’s upper reaches the zodiacs sail deep into the virtually impenetrable jungle along the narrow Rio Jutai, while a visit to the local market and the museum of local history in Leticia offers an insight into life in the border triangle of Brazil, Columbia and Peru.
Prices The Cruise People is offering a saving of around £900 per person sharing a standard twin cabin on the published Euro fares for this 16-day cruise along the Amazon, sailing from Belem to Iquitos in 4* comfort onboard the MS Bremen. And with a Euro300 per person on board credit for drinks this voyage represents great value for money with fares from £5210 per person. The fare includes the voyage from Belem to Iquitos with accommodation as booked and all meals on board; a flight from Iquitos to Miami; transfers from the ship to the airport and port taxes. Optional shore excursions are available. International flights are not included in the price.
Dates (Belem/Iquitos) 11 – 27 April 2009.
