Delfin I Amazon Riverboat

The new and refurbished Delfin I takes you one step beyond luxury, where comfort and grace combine effortlessly with the wilderness of the Amazon rainforest to create one of the most unique and personalized vessels to ever sail in the Peruvian Amazon region.

To fulfill your Amazon rainforest and river exploring fantasies, the Delfin I is a perfect choice. On a Delfin I Amazon cruise, you will experience an ideal combination of natural wonders, dramatic scenery, indigenous cultural history, and a relaxed and self-contained way to explore the Amazon, all while sightseeing nature at its best.

Onboard the 8-passenger river vessel, in a more intimate setting of understated elegance and world-class hospitality, you will find 4 spacious window-wrapped luxury suites, all of them with private terraces and two of them with private whirlpool baths. Travelers will be spoiled by the floor-to-ceiling windows that allow nature to be part of the natural suite décor. Cabin service 3 times a day will ensure you the most optimal personalized service possible.

On the ship’s top deck, guests will find a lounge area, bar and an entertainment center, which are perfect places to relax in while the jungle unfolds before your eyes. The most popular social area is the observation deck, a casually elegant setting that creates a welcoming and peaceful environment for those who want to get away from it all. Enjoy luxury and comfort seated on soft, large sofas while seeking the breathtaking sights of the Amazon and the brilliant stargazing at night. The bar offers a variety of international and local drinks, while coffee and tea are always available.

The dining room on the Delfin I offers an unrivaled level of sophistication, as Peruvian cuisine is considered one of the world's finest and reflects the country's cultural diversity. Onboard the Delfin I, you will experience how the Amazon's wild choice of fresh ingredients and the gentle blend of immigrant traditions have created one of the world's most unique and delicious cuisines.

By making all of this happen, the 11-member staff and crew of the Delfin I is one of the ship’s greatest points of pride. The guides, skippers, chefs and crew members – many of them native Amazonians – are experienced and trained professionals as well as charming travel companions. With a high ratio of 1.4 staff/crew members for every passenger, guests are provided personal and undivided attention.

Once you travel on the Delfin I, your travel expectations will be forever changed.
