Amazon Clipper Boat Information Itinerary Description - Amazon River Itinerary Description - Negro River Packages & Rates Know also the new Amazon Clipper Premium boat. Boat Information There are several ways to see the Amazon wonders. Amazon Clipper cruises provide you with the opportunity to see and enjoy nature at its fullest in the wonderful environment of the Amazon Rain Forest, specially at dawn and dusk. Amazon Clipper Cruises uses several boats with similar comfort and facilities, such as the "AMAZON ANGLER", the "SELLY CLIPPER II" and the "SELLY CLIPPER", which are Amazon riverboats with traditional lines. They were designed exclusively for cruising on the Amazon River and its tributaries. Using years of experience on other tour boats we made several design innovations to make them as comfortable as possible and still offer a perfect interaction with nature. All our riverboats offer the same comfort: double cabins with bunk berths, private toilet facilities and nighttime air conditioning. Social life is divided between the covered saloon, with bar, dinning area and library and the panoramic sum deck with fantastic view. The boat's kitchens are fully equipped with freezers, charcoal filters and a large supply of mineral water. The shallow draught allows us to visit locations inaccessible to many other boats and the outboard powered canoes that we carry are used for trips in lagoons, narrow channels, creeks and flooded forest.
