Picture yourself cruising along the world’s longest navigable river experiencing the diversity of nature as it flourishes beneath the Amazon’s shaded rainforest canopy. Better yet, picture your fellow Albrightians along with you!

Albright alumni have the opportunity to enjoy seven days of adventure into the world’s most exotic natural realm – the mysterious Amazon.

Housing the world’s largest rainforest ecosystem, travelers will learn about everything from the spidery forms of orchids to incredible animals like the transparent glass frog. A boundless natural diversity can be seen from treetop to river bottom.

The Amazon’s intimate 26-passenger La Turmalina offers incredible wildlife viewing from a spacious, open-air top deck, passengers will experience classic 19th century elegance and 21st century comfort.

From La Turmalina you will board special small excursion boats to explore the Amazon’s secretive tributaries, view the world’s largest wetlands refuge and experience species not found anywhere else on this planet!
