My name is Luiz Felipe Moura. MAD was born out of more than 20 years of connection to the Amazon—research, the restoration of Belterra, and the founding of MuCA—and offers private, mindful journeys into the heart of the Amazon.
MAD | My Amazon Dream designs private immersive trips in the Lower Amazon—entirely independently curated and operated. Based in Alter do Chão and Arapiuns (Pará), we create exclusive, highly personalized experiences that combine nature, wellness, gastronomy, and culture—door-to-door, with seamless logistics and a dedicated team consisting of a host, captain & crew, a chef, guides, massage therapists, and a yoga instructor.
Our goal is a regenerative, deeply rooted way of traveling: We preserve ecosystems and traditions, strengthen the local economy, and honor the ancestral knowledge of the river communities. We involve 20 local micro-enterprises and over 30 community members,
