Press Release Summary: The GreenTracks Amazon Cruise is an ecotour on the Amazon
River and its tributaries. You will explore the upper reaches of the exotic Amazon
in Peru, one of the world's greatest ecosystems on a colorful Amazon riverboat.


Press Release Body: Dreaming of a green getaway for the holidays? Years of
experience exploring the Amazon allows GreenTracks to offer you a unique cruise
experience. The GreenTracks Amazon Cruise is an ecotour adventure. There will be
several excursions daily off the riverboat, led by GreenTracks-trained, bilingual
Naturalist Guides. Using small excursion boats we will explore the creeks and oxbow
lakes in search of wildlife. After dark we will do the same in search of caiman and
colorful frogs. We will hike on rainforest trails in search of interesting animals,
multicolored butterflies, bizarre insects, exotic flowers and gigantic trees.
Ethnobotany (use of plants by people) will be explained by our guides.

The Amazon riverboat has plenty of room to spread out and relax. Each cabin is air
conditioned and has private bath & shower. There is an enclosed air-conditioned
dining room and an outdoor bar area. Meals of both international and regional
cuisine are served buffet-style in the air-conditioned dining room. Freshly caught
fish is deliciously prepared by our chef and is always a big hit with our
passengers. Beautifully presented salads are part of each lunch and dinner. Exotic
rainforest fruits are available for snacks and juices.

This seven day/six night trip departs Iquitos, Peru on December 21, 2008. The cost
of the trip is $2285 per person in a twin cabin. Group size is always small,
typically 8 - 12 people. A GreenTracks eco-adventure cruise is fun, stimulating and
educational. With over 16 years of operation GreenTracks has provided memorable
experiences of the Amazon to thousands of travelers. Visit www.greentracks.com
