This luxury ship takes guests on a magnificently memorable cruise along both, the Solimões and Amazon rivers, offering all the comfort and service the discerning traveler demands. The adventure begins in the city of Manaus, capital of the State of Amazonas, famous for its spectacular Opera House.

After departing Manaus, the Iberostar Grand Amazon makes stops at locations along the Amazon jungle, offering excursions to explore the dense, untouched vegetation.
