Luxury and Boutique Amazon River Cruises

We welcome you at Iquitos airport and, on the way to Nauta, visit the Amazon Rescue Center (CREA), where Amazonian manatees and other rescued species are rehabilitated. In Nauta, you board the cruise and settle into your suite. Later, in the afternoon, you go on your first skiff excursion to watch birds and, with luck, your first dolphins. Finally, in the evening you enjoy the welcome dinner.

You sail toward the Pacaya Samiria National Reserve, one of the largest protected areas in Peru. Then, in skiffs, you explore channels and lagoons in search of pink and gray river dolphins, sloths, monkeys, macaws and caimans. In the afternoon, you can go kayaking in calm waters or fish for piranhas using traditional techniques. Later, at nightfall, you head out on a night excursion to discover the sounds and wildlife of the rainforest.

You visit a Kukama riverside community to learn about their way of life, traditions and relationship with the river. Then you take a rainforest walk or a skiff ride through the flooded forest, depending on the water level. Later, in the afternoon, you enjoy the sunset from the deck, while the guides give a talk on the ecology of the Amazon.

At sunrise, you go on a last excursion to watch birds and dolphins. After breakfast, you disembark in Nauta and, finally, we transfer you by road to Iquitos airport for your departure flight.
