Fort-De-France

Martinique

Day
6
Date
Jan 11, 2028
Arrive
8:00 AM
Depart
5:00 PM

Some three centuries after Columbus landed here, the French-speaking island of Martinique had established strong economic and cultural ties to New Orleans, thanks to its sugar and rum production. That came to an abrupt halt when Mount Pelee erupted in 1902, destroying the island's rich trading port of St. Pierre.

Santarem

Brazil

Day
12
Date
Jan 17, 2028
Arrive
8:00 AM
Depart
5:00 PM

Perched alongside the Rio Tapajós deep inside the Amazon between Manaus and Belem (but 800 kilometers, or almost 500 miles, from both!), Santarem is a muggy but intriguing jungle town and a jumping-off point for a bevy of surrounding attractions.

Boca da Valeria

Brazil

Day
13
Date
Jan 18, 2028
Arrive
8:00 AM
Depart
2:00 PM

Surrounded by the Amazonian rain forest, Boca da Valeria, a small Brazilian settlement of fewer than 100 people, boasts no tourism infrastructure. Yet the destination lures travelers by offering an authentic glimpse of the simple river life that the Amerindians have followed for centuries.

Manaus

Brazil

Day
14
Date
Jan 19, 2028
Arrive
10:00 AM

If ever a city were a model for boom and bust, it would be Manaus, which lies at the confluence of Brazil's Amazon River and Rio Negro, more than 1,450 kilometers (900 miles) from the Atlantic Ocean.

Parintins

Brazil

Day
16
Date
Jan 21, 2028
Arrive
8:00 AM
Depart
5:00 PM

If a world record exists for the most remote festival on the planet, then Parintins should win hands down. This cow town of sorts sits on an island in the Amazon River, some 1,100 kilometers (700 miles) inland from the Atlantic. Its claim to fame: the spectacular Boi Bumba festival, held over three days in June.

Alter Do Chao

Brazil

Day
17
Date
Jan 22, 2028
Arrive
8:00 AM
Depart
4:00 PM

Not for nothing is Alter do Chão known as the Caribbean of the Amazon. Taken as a whole, the village's white powdery beaches, transparent blue-green waters and hang-loose vibe would make a perfectly convincing addition to the Lesser Antilles.
