"I don't have walls, I have horizons. I am the world in which I walk."
Wallace Steavens
Our mission is to co-create the transformation we want to see in the world — through profound experiences,
within and outside ourselves.
NA AMZ Projects is a tourism platform that aims to foster community transformation and development, working in partnership with traditional communities, local projects, and people seeking reconnection.
We unite two ends of the same purpose:
On one hand, we support communities in creating and strengthening community-based tourism initiatives, offering consulting and strategies that generate autonomy and positive impact;
On the other, we facilitate immersive experiences that promote self-knowledge, reconnection with nature, and profound cultural encounters.
We believe that tourism can be a space for collective learning and healing — a way to sensitize, inform, and inspire people about the socio-environmental issues of our time, through the voices and knowledge of local leaders themselves.
Each journey is built with listening, respect, and co-creation, generating genuine bridges between those who arrive and those who welcome them—and strengthening a global network of people committed to the regeneration
of the planet and human relationships.

Our experiences invite listening, presence, and awakening—integrating inner learning with collective transformation.
We cultivate a deep relationship with nature.
Our experiences raise awareness, inform, and connect people to regenerative solutions — inspiring care and preservation of the planet we inhabit.

KAYAPó ETNOTURISM
It is with great joy that the Kayapó people, from the villages of Kubenkrãnkenh and Kedjerekrã, invite you to a unique experience in the heart of the Amazon, in the south of the state of Pará.
The "mother village" of the Kayapó people opens only a few groups a year to receive visitors for an immersion in its vibrant and exuberant culture — a journey of exchange, learning, and respect.
Located in a transition region between the Cerrado and the Amazon Rainforest, the village is surrounded by a unique ecosystem, with waterfalls of crystal-clear, warm water, river beaches, and native forest.
Here, it is possible to experience a true connection with nature, guided by those who have preserved and
taught how to live in harmony with it for centuries, its original people.
alter do chãO
Considered one of the places with the most beautiful river beaches in Brazil, Alter do Chão enchants with its crystal-clear waters and white sands that change shape according to the rhythm of the rivers.
It's no wonder it's nicknamed the "Amazonian Caribbean"—its banks stretch for about 30 kilometers, revealing a landscape that, for a moment, makes you doubt whether it's sea or freshwater.
Along these banks live several riverside communities, which warmly welcome visitors to share their stories, ways of life, and traditional knowledge.
During the experiences, visitors are invited to enter the Amazon rainforest and get to know firsthand the deep relationship these communities maintain with nature, in a true exchange of cultures, learning, and affection.

VILLA ARAPIUNS
This is a spaceof events and inn standing on the sand,
in front of Ponta Grande, the main point for visiting the Arapiuns river. It is located among all the communities that work with community-based tourism and offer super interesting tours. That is, you will have a super optional program during your stay or your event.
VILA AMZ
Vila AMZ is a guesthouse in Alter with a proposal for equipped houses fully integrated with the forest and very well located. It is located at the foot of an ecological reserve, 50 meters from one of the best beaches in Lago Verde and 15 minutes walk from the center.
The idea is for you to feel at home and experience what it's like to live in total contact with nature and comfort.
Manaus
Amazonas is the largest Brazilian state, with approximately 3 times the territory of France.
A state with a diversity of ethnicities and biomes, its entrance is through the famous capital Manaus.
From there you can sail along the Negro and Solimões rivers and experience the Amazon in comfort.

check the comments from people who have traveled with us
"This is one of the most unique experiences I've ever had in my life. I went for the first time in 2014/15 and came back this year because I knew it would be special. After more then 65 countries in my backpack and countless experiences, this is still one of the ones it impacted me the most. It is one of those things that cannot be explained, it needs to be lived. No agenda for tourists to see. It is inclusion and participation. We go out with the Amazon within us.
Renata Aquino
"AMZ is really a producer of experiences that, based on a deep respect for the knowledge and way of life of the local communities, creates the possibility of a deep encounter of each one that chooses to have this experience with the bigger realities of life. I wanted to say that you they trust in the strength of the forest and its people to offer visitors a glimpse of the vastness and richness that our life can have ... well ... I was delighted! "
Cynthia
"It is really a trip to the center of the world, to the center of yourself, a dive into the soul of life. I think the fresh water of the Tapajós and Arapiuns River, the strength of the place, and all the love of the AMZ team, makes your soul smile every morning. And you come back with a magical energy, that famous phrase "the happiness that comes from the inside out", and you keep shining that sun. Thank you and congratulations for providing this magic! <3 "
Mari Millon

Pedro Mann
"I did not imagine that the Amazon that was to come on my skin and in my soul was so pulsating and so rare. AMZ made me feel moments of purity, joy and truth. A unique experience."
"Don't be afraid to try something different, but deep down, it's part of every human being. You'll discover yourself! Get ready for one of the best trips and experiences of your life”
