As daylight fades, the Amazon transforms. Board a small skiff with your naturalist guide and glide quietly along the riverbanks, where the jungle comes alive in a different way. With spotlights scanning the shoreline, you may see the glowing eyes of caimans, night monkeys moving through the trees, or herons and bats beginning their nocturnal routines. The soundtrack shifts to the “jungle orchestra” — frogs, insects, and unseen creatures creating a layered symphony after sunset.

After returning to the ship, head to the top-deck Sundeck for stargazing. Far from artificial light, the Amazon sky reveals an astonishing display of stars. Beneath this vast canopy, guides point out constellations while the river drifts quietly below.

Together, the night skiff and stargazing experience offer a rare perspective — witnessing both the hidden wildlife of the rainforest and the immense sky above it.
