Expedition Cruises through the Amazon Rainforest

Exploring the Amazon by Luxury Expedition Ship with
Seabourn Venture

In this week’s edition of Travel in 10, David Brodie welcomes
co-host Tim Johnson back from an unforgettable journey deep into
the heart of Brazil’s Amazon rainforest. This episode is your
front-row seat to one of the world’s most remote and biodiverse
destinations—experienced in style aboard Seabourn Venture, a
purpose-built luxury expedition ship.


From pink dolphins to piranha fishing, and from remote riverside
villages to a stunning theatrical festival in Parintins, this is
not your typical cruise. Join us as we explore what it’s like to
navigate the world’s largest river system aboard a small ship
packed with amenities—and adventure.
