Ideal Spaces to Observe the Forest: |
|
A Spacious Design
The Tucano is a big boat, over
80 feet long. There is plenty of space to spread out, study the
forest nearby, and contemplate the wonders of nature. Click Here for Deck Plans of Tucano
Why
a riverboat? |
A
Generous Salon The Salon of the Motor Yacht Tucano
is at the forward part of the vessel and is surrounded by a broad
balcony. Thoroughly paneled and lighted by brass lamps, this
room serves as our vessel library and dining room. It is a good
place to observe the forest, read or relax. From this large space,
filled with windows and situated at the front of the boat, you
can see the fantastic forest around us. [more

Large
Observation Deck
The top deck is open and has a
large sun canopy --a wonderful place to spot wildlife or soak
in the vastness of the Amazon. There is also space to catch some
sun and watch the Macaw parrots screeching across the afternoon
sky. |
Forward
Mid-Deck Balcony
The middle deck has a wide balcony
around the entire front of the boat. Passengers can see where
we are going and observe monkeys jumping from one vine to another. |

Comfortable and Private Cabins |
Good Sized
Cabins: All
of the 9 cabins are comfortable. Most cabins have individual
beds and some have above and below beds. |
Private Bathrooms: Each cabin on Tucano has a private
bath with a shower, toilet, and a sink. We have hot water pressurized
showers. |
|
Windows to See the Forest: There are 76 large windows on Tucano
and all of them open and close. There are large insect screens,
though generally there are very very few mosquitos on our voyage. |
Air-Conditioning: All the cabins and the Salon are air-conditioned.
Every cabin has its own thermostat and individual controls. Your
cabin can be as cool or as warm as you wish. |

And Last but not Least, a Bit of Elegance |
|
Beautiful Woodwork: All of the walls in the cabins have
solid wood raised paneling... varnished and absolutely superb. |
Lovely Decks: The decks in the cabins and living
room are a deep brown natural finished wood that is kept highly
polished. |

Dining
On Tucano |
Our meals are not gourmet, but wholesome,
filling and delicious. We also serve many types of Amazon Fruits.
Our cooks rise before dawn to make a large breakfast and there
is always a tantalizing scent coming out of the Galley. |
