Overview

The handsome lines of the Delfin III.

The handsome lines of the Delfin III.

The recently-built Delfin III is a luxury vessel that is so perfectly suited to its environment, even Mother Nature should be proud!

While cruising the Amazon River and her tributaries, guests explore one of the largest expanses of tropical rain forest in the world, immersing themselves in the most biologically-diverse region on Earth.

A great effort has been made to ensure that, despite the abundant 5* luxuries on board the Delfin III, the rainforest is never far away.

All cabins have floor-to-ceiling windows to enjoy the Amazon views to the full, while the vessel has been tastefully decorated in sustainable hard woods, colourful, hand-made Peruvian textiles, and traditional tools and artwork from local villages.

At 52 m (170 ft) in length, this intimate yet spacious river-ship is uniquely capable of providing an unforgettable Amazon River experience.

The open-air Sun Deck is the hub of activity on the Delfin III. Here you can practice yoga or savour a rich Peruvian coffee as you watch the sunrise. Curl up with a book on a cushioned chaise or go for a dip in the sparkling plunge pool.

In the evening, you can relax in the shaded lounge to sip a cocktail, as you revel in the sounds of the jungle coming to life at night.

Alternatively, you may choose to spend time in the elegant, air-conditioned Canopy Lounge. Not only is this a great place to escape the heat of the Amazonian afternoons, it is also host to cultural performances, Peruvian cooking classes, lectures on Amazon issues, and nightly entertainment to enrich and inform your luxury cruise experience.

In the Andes Dining Room, the ship’s chefs present dazzling creations prepared from local ingredients and infused with flavours and culinary know-how from the rain forest.

Reviews

This was an excellent trip. I really enjoyed all of it. Well done!
— Kylie Orme - Chicago, IL
We very much enjoyed the Delfin III cruise, the sites, the excursions, and the people we met ...

... The boat folks at the airport could not have been more welcoming with packed drinks and lunch for the drive, hospitality. And from then on the boat trip was just the same - very knowledgeable guides, itineraries you could opt in or out of (we chose nearly all) and lovely food.

... it was really quite a wonderful boat and we loved our floor to ceiling windows.

They definitely got us onto the Amazon confluence which was on my bucket list and popped the champagne!

We saw mostly birds and some monkeys, and then on one walk poison dart frog, tarantula and a python.

The best was simply exploring by boat the tributaries of the vast Amazon river.

... We loved this trip because it was exciting and relaxing at the same time, great views from all over the boat of vastness of the Amazon, and to be sure it was an unforgettable adventure.

It was wonderful, thank you!

The cabin and the facilities on the Delfin III as a whole were excellent. The cabin had floor to ceiling windows, which provided such amazing views of the Amazon, wow!

The service was also superb (including an extremely high ratio of employees to guests).

I really enjoyed all the excursions, although ideally it would have been great if we could have squeezed in one more jungle trek. I realise, however, that given it was a 3 day itinerary, that it may have been a bit tricky to pull off.

Generally speaking the food was very good, with the best being the Peruvian dishes; I’d encourage them to do more of those (rather than e.g. a continental duck dish).

I had a lovely massage as well, which was a real treat!

I’ll definitely recommend this trip to my friends,

Thanks!
