For more than four decades, CroisiEurope has set the pace for river cruising in Europe, Africa, and Asia. Now, the family-owned French brand is venturing into South America with its most ambitious program yet: three new itineraries on the Brazilian Amazon, debuting in 2027 aboard the RV Brasilian Dream.

A First for CroisiEurope

The Amazon marks CroisiEurope’s first cruise program in the Americas and its first newbuild since 2020. Purpose-built for the rainforest, the RV Brasilian Dream carries just 32 guests in 16 suites, each with private balconies. Interiors draw inspiration from Amazonian culture, think vivid colors, artisanal textures, and local woods, creating a sense of place that begins the moment guests step aboard.

Intimate Voyages, Deep Immersion

The 2027 season launches with three 10-night itineraries:

Amazon & Rio Negro (roundtrip Manaus) – Explore the flooded forests, blackwater tributaries, and extraordinary wildlife of the Rio Negro.
Amazon & Tapajós (Manaus ↔ Santarém) – White-sand river beaches, crystal-clear waters, and encounters with rare flora and fauna.
Original Amazon (Manaus ↔ Tabatinga, near the Colombian border) – The most remote route, bringing guests to indigenous villages and pristine reserves.

Each program blends wildlife encounters, canoe excursions, and forest walks with cultural immersion: floating villages, local crafts, and traditional rituals delivering experiences that feel both rare and personal.

Eco-Luxury in the Jungle

More than a ship, the RV Brasilian Dream is a statement of intent. Built with solar panels, advanced wastewater systems, and low-emission engines, the vessel reflects CroisiEurope’s commitment to sustainable tourism in sensitive ecosystems. By day, guests may spot pink dolphins or toucans. By night, the ship runs silently on battery power, heightening the sense of immersion in the world’s greatest rainforest.

Onboard, a Brazilian-inspired gourmet restaurant, spa, and open-air sun deck ensure that comfort and discovery sail side by side.

Why It Matters for Planners

For incentive and MICE planners, the Amazon program represents both prestige and possibility:

Buyout scale – With just 32 guests, full-ship charters are within reach.
Built-in storytelling – Recognition moments set against jungle sunrises or indigenous ceremonies.
Eco-resonance – A sustainability-forward product that aligns with corporate values.
First-to-market appeal – CroisiEurope’s Amazon debut offers groups a narrative of exclusivity and exploration.

The Bigger Picture

CroisiEurope has long been defined by its family-owned roots and ability to chart new rivers. From the Mekong to the Chobe, the brand has consistently expanded the horizons of river cruising. With the Amazon launch in 2027, it takes its most dramatic leap yet—bringing eco-luxury and small-ship intimacy to one of the planet’s most storied frontiers.

For planners, the message is clear: river cruising is no longer limited to Europe. With CroisiEurope, it’s a platform for authentic recognition travel on a truly global stage.
