Special Requests

Delfin Amazon Cruises will accommodate special request and deal with dietary requirements (children,

vegetarian, allergic). Because we sail in such remote areas, all requests must be made at least 30 days in

advance.

Canopy Walk

The Delfin I is already the most luxurious vessel on the Amazon, with spacious cabins and top of the line

service, we wanted to bring more excitement to its itinerary. And that is why we now exclusively offer Canopy

Walking as part of both programs (5days/4nights & 4days/3nights).

Enjoy the inside views of the rainforest in this 400 meter long Canopy Walkway. A vivid sun filtering thru the

dense canopy of green. Discover a world of birds adorned in neon-brilliant colors, playful tropical monkeys

and millions of butterflies, all of this in a more intimate manner.

In this glorious Amazon rainforest environment, the animals are free in their natural habitat to show us their

best highlights, so be ready to be dazzled by them.

Kayaks

With the ongoing effort of always being one step ahead in the market, we would like to bring you two new additions to our programs: Delfin Amazon Cruises is proud to introduce its new Native´s 16” River Kayaks to

both the Delfin I & Delfin II. These kayaks, will give an excellent opportunity to paddle silently into small creeks

and lagoons. They have been especially designed for fishing, but will also allow you to gently stream down

the Pacaya Samiria flat waters if a soft adventure is what you are looking for.

We will host Professional Fishing Programs on 2012 Wet Season, July to October.

In the depths of the Amazon jungle, deep inside lagoons and creeks, pursue the fierce fishes of the Peruvian

Amazon in comfort, security and style. Encounter the mighty peacock bass, gigantic awe-inspiring Amazon

catfish and other exotic sporting species. Join us on the trip of a lifetime.

As part of our Environmental Commitment, we exercise a strict policy of catch and release.
