Introducing two new trips to help travelers explore Argentina and the Amazon Rainforest in depth, and without the crowds.

SEATTLE, WA, UNITED STATES, August 19, 2020 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Following increased interest in remote destinations and in depth single country tours, SouthAmerica.travel has created two new customizable South America tours.

1. The Remote Amazon Tour

This 11 day Amazon Rainforest tour takes travelers into the heart of the Brazilian Amazon. It includes four nights on board a small, expedition style cruise along the Rio Negro, a major tributary of the Amazon followed by a stay at a remote floating lodge in the Mamirauá Sustainable Development Reserve. This tour starts and ends in the major city of Manaus yet takes visitors to parts of the Amazon few tourists visit.

Highlights

Take walks, canoe and motor boat trips deep into the forest
Spot monkeys, river dolphins, caiman and much more!
Visit remote Amazonian communities
Stay in a unique floating Amazon lodge
Cruise into remote reaches of the Rio Negro on a small ship
Explore the Mamirauá Sustainable Development Reserve
See the famous Meeting of the Waters
Visit Manaus Opera House and learn about the rubber boom city

Price

From $3,190 per person based on two traveling, this includes:
9 nights accommodation in a mix of cruise, lodge and hotel
9 breakfasts, 7 lunches and 7 dinners
Guided tours and transfers with English speaking guides
Entrance fees

Flights

The start and end point for this tour is Manaus. Flights are not included in the above as they vary considerably by date. Prices for return flights in 2021 from the USA start from around $540 (American Airlines from Miami direct to Manaus). Flights between Manaus and Tefe are needed which currently cost from around $260 return with Brazilian airline Azul.

Notes

For an even more in depth Amazon Rainforest tour, this trip can be extended into the Colombian Amazon by taking advantage of new direct flights from Tefe to Tabatinga which adjoins the Colombian town of Leticia from where travelers can head up river to an excellent lodge on the banks of the River Amazon for a few nights. This is at extra cost. This trip can easily be extended or combined with other Brazil tours.
