Anakonda Amazon Cruises Honored as South America’s Leading River Cruise Company 2025 | Travel News

Once again, the Ecuadorian Amazon shines on the global stage. The World Travel Awards selected Anakonda Amazon Cruises as South America’s Leading River Cruise Company for 2025 which recognizes their achievement beyond luxury standards. The award represents a mission to discover one of the planet's most extraordinary natural environments through ethical and sincere and heartfelt methods.

Every expedition aboard Anakonda begins with a purpose — a WHY. The Amazon's living heart functions as the reason for all community partnerships and conservation projects and for creating authentic ecological experiences. The philosophy transformed Anakonda into a sustainable exploration icon for South America because it unites environmental awareness with lavish living.

The Anakonda Amazon Cruise delivers complete rainforest tours to Ecuador's most preserved forest areas. The 148-foot vessel provides guests with a boutique hotel experience through its elegant design as they navigate the Napo River's winding path. The Amazon River presents endless discoveries through its colorful parrot clay licks and indigenous Kichwa villages and its pink river dolphins and black caimans. The ship provides passengers with fine dining and panoramic suites together with open-air lounges which create lasting memorable experiences.

Anakonda travels with respect and renewal because of the pink river dolphins which swim alongside the boat and because of the Kichwa and Cofán people who share their traditional knowledge. For over a decade, this commitment has shaped how guests discover Ecuador’s Amazon — not as spectators, but as part of its story.
