Amazon

The Peruvian Amazon is a world shaped by water, transformed with each rise and fall of the river. When the water runs high, glide by skiff or kayak between the trees; as it recedes, step ashore onto forest trails. Aboard the intimate Delfin II and Delfin III—members of the Relais & Châteaux collection—you’ll explore hidden corners of the Pacaya-Samiria National Reserve, venturing into narrow tributaries, blackwater lakes and secluded channels few travelers ever see.

Experienced local naturalists interpret distant calls and subtle movements, revealing wildlife that might otherwise remain hidden—from pink river dolphins to macaws, sloths and caimans. Return after dark as the nocturnal forest comes alive, and capture each discovery with a certified photo instructor. A visit to a ribereños community offers another perspective on this living wilderness and the people whose lives are shaped by the river.
