Upper Amazon Aboard the Delfin II
Join Federico Pardo on the Sep. 28, 2024, departure
Venture to the headwaters of the mighty Amazon in the heart of Peru’s rainforest aboard the elegant riverboat Delfin II. Slip through jungle waterways by skiff or kayak in search of diverse wildlife. Skim past massive lily pads, peer up at towering ceiba trees, and witness glorious sunsets on the still waters of quiet lakes off the mighty Amazon. Interact with the local ribereños, whom we support with our visit.

Sail in tropical style and comfort with a small band of explorers
Delfin II, our base for daily explorations to which we happily return, has a distinct advantage over any land-based camp—she moves, giving you an ever-varied experience of the Amazon’s multiple landscapes and wonders. Her iron exterior is clad in tropical hardwoods, and her interior gleams with wood floors and lacquered palm ceilings. Wood stairs float between decks, and lazily turning ceiling fans add the right tropical notes, while the air-conditioning invisibly cools and dehumidifies. Relais & Châteaux inducted Delfin II into its prestigious hotel group, recognizing her commitment to sustainability, service, local nature, and culture.
