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.

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.

Accommodations

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.

Good Lighting:

There is both a 110 volt and a 12 volt electrical system throughout the boat and a reading light above every bed
