The boat’s kitchens are fully equipped with freezers, charcoal filters and a large supply of mineral water. The meals are prepared on the boat from supplies taken aboard in Manaus and sometimes caught fresh on the way. Food articles that are needed are preserved in freezers or refrigerators. The water served on board is mineral water. The meals are generous and varied, basically consisting of local cuisine where fish plays a strong role and many times is caught on the way.
Despite the fact that climate is considered hot and damp all year, it can be surprisingly cool at night in the jungle or on the river. Mostly, passengers will have to resort to wearing light clothing such as tshirts, shorts, bathing suits and sandals.
