3 days - Tambopata Amazon Jungle

The experience itself was great with an awesome guide and good accommodations. My complaint is that the tour only loosely followed the itinerary I was given beforehand. Although all the listed activities were as-promised, there were some added that I would have liked to know about beforehand, even though they were good additions (like kayaking and zip-lining) and the schedule didn't line up exactly. That is, I anticipated going to the lodge at around 1pm on the day of arrival but I was transported around 9:40 almost directly after my arrival. Similarly (and more of a difficulty) I planned on finishing with the tour around 11:00 but was taken back to the town at 9:30 which left me with more extra time before my flight than I had expected. Despite these difficulties, the staff were very nice and accommodating and let me stay in their office during while I waited for my flight. They also honored their one free date change policy and allowed me to change my tour to an earlier date. Overall, I would recommend this trip, although I suggest for the tour operator to be more clear in their description.

Ecuador Treasures Bucket List 8 Days Tour

Alejandro was simply the BEST and made each and every day of our week long tour exceptional. He chose unbelievable accommodations that were unique and memorable and he knew the business owners and locals everywhere we went! Alejandro kept us on schedule so we could maximize our time there but remained flexible to meet the needs of our wanderlust and spur of the moment desires! We felt completely safe and "pampered" at all times. He is extremely knowledgeable of all things Ecuador, it's people, culture and environment.

Sightseeing

Amazon, Incas & Titicaca - 13 days

This trip was amazing and included one of the best travel experiences of my life so far. Peru is a vibrant, exciting, fun and diverse place to visit. Im a solo traveller - plus gay man,and felt completely safe walking around solo in Lima, Cusco, and all the small villages and towns. I made great friends on this tour - including other solo travellers. This trip included all the highlights Peru has to offer, Machu Picchu, Cusco, Lamas and Alpacas, history, Local Food, amazing landscapes, Lake Titicaca and the floating island, cities, towns, villages, and of course The Amazon Jungle - my travel highlight. The Amazon accommodation was beautiful, located in the jungle. I would wake up to the sounds of Howler monkeys communicating outside my cabin each morning. Listening to the wildlife, while sitting on my fly screen covered balcony listening to the animals at sunrise and sunset - plus the fall of the rain in thenight time - was truly awesome. We took an amazing walk over suspension bridges elevated above the jungle canopy - with the tress filled with sloths and their babies. We did a boat night safari spotting the animals, and one day took a guided canoe ride into an inland lake - filled with fish, so our guide threw bits of food in the water and out came the piranhas to eat it - SOOO COOL. Machu Picchu is overwhelming. All those years seeing pictures and documentaries on Tv - to then be there and see it with your own eyes - such a overwhelming experience... and i mean that in the best way. The place is so much bigger in person. The train up and back is very comfortable with big windows - toilets and bar service in each cart. Great scenery rides heading up in the morning. Coming back - our cart turned into the party area and it was fun. There is quite a variety of altitude elevation in parts of Peru so you may at times feel dizzy - I was totally fine, I drank the Cocoa Tea supplied (helps with altitude sickness) everywhere we went and felt good - but others were sometimes feeling off. There are lots of Stairs and Slopped paths throughout Peru - so if you want 'buns of steel' by the end of the trip - you will get them visiting here. The tour itself was well paced - we would typically see sights in the morning and then return to our hotel to do our own thing for the rest of the day - great balance. Our Tour Leader John was wonderful - along with all our local guides in the different areas we visited - top notch. Really loved Peru and would recommend for everyone to go with ON THE GO.

He took the best care of me. I was feeling better by the next day. I didn’t make the trek but Cesar my guide was always checking in with me to see how I was doing. They were amazing!

Reviews of Amazon Cruises

Absolutely loaded with activities, early, late, and in between.

Great tour meeting some awesome people, seeing beautiful sights, great food and unforgettable experiences

This trip was truly the trip of a lifetime. Jesus really submerges you into the Peruvian culture and the three days you’re there, you are nonstop with activities. Our guide was so knowledgeable and he made the trip. His family grew up in the rainforest so he was able to tell you the history about most things there (the families, the foods, the animals etc). We went during rainy season, and still had a wonderful time. If you’re looking for adventure, meeting wonderful people, and being in nature - this trip is for you!

What They Say about Us!

Patricia herriot, usa.

From the moment I stepped aboard the ship, I was treated so very well. The staff took the time to get to know the names of the passengers and greeted each of us by name. The rooms were cleaned often, the excursions were so interesting and fun, the guides were knowledgeable and made each excursion/activity an absolute blast and the food was fantastic! I highly recommend boarding the Delfín III for your trip of a lifetime!

Hilary Langford, Australia

Simon zhang and family, china.

Thanks to Ericson and the entire Delfin l crew for an amazing trip in Amazon River. It’s indeed my second trip to Amazon in Peru, but every bit of experience was new and unique. Will entirely recommend Delfin Cruise to our friends. Keep up the great work!

Luxury Amazon River Cruises

Luxury Amazon River Cruises really do exist in the remotest corners of the rainforest. We’ve searched the length of Amazon and found those vessels we truly consider to be luxurious, floating five-star boutique hotels with immaculate style, sublime service, deluxe suites and gourmet cuisine as standard. Whilst all the cruises in our portfolio provide comfortable accommodation, great food and knowledgeable guides, the boats in our Luxury category really stand out for their amenities, service and attention to detail. Our luxury Amazon Cruises in Brazil, Peru and Ecuador indulge guests with lavish, over-sized suites with large beds, often California king size, and linen, toiletries and towels of the utmost quality in your spacious, private ensuite bathroom. All suites are climate-controlled and offer remarkable views of the rainforest scenery through floor-to-ceiling windows, and many provide extra perks dependent upon the cabin category.

Meals, which may take the form of tasting menus, are often designed by world-class consulting chefs, with inspiration taken from national and regional recipes and prepared with fresh and exotic locally-sourced ingredients. The unique flavors of Amazonian fruits and fish really are something to savor. Despite active schedules , luxury Amazon River cruise itineraries do contain plenty of down time, especially during the hottest part of the day. Indulge in a massage in the spa, or unwind in one of the comfortable public areas on board – take a dip in a sparkling jacuzzi or plunge pool, or even practice yoga while you revel in the sounds of the jungle coming to life. For many, the most memorable aspect of an Amazon cruise are the locals you meet along the way. Key among these are the guides and ship’s crew, who are hand-picked for their knowledge, amiability and hard work.
