Upon arriving at the port of Nauta, you will board the DELFIN I, the most unique and
small river vessel in the Amazon River. You will enjoy the personal attention and your own private decks. Your immense suites will be the epitome of luxury while cruising; you will enjoy a variety of environmentally friendly amenities for your ultimate indulgence.
08:00 pm. Happy hour
Just before dusk, as the DELFIN I starts its journey into the rainforest, our barman and staff will provide you with Peru’s finest and most famous cocktail, the pisco sour, made of Pisco, a Peruvian grape brandy. Fine regional cigars will also be available.
08:30 pm. Dinner
Dinner is served in our cozy dining room located at the back of the ship's second deck.
Because of its cultural diversity, Peruvian cuisine is considered one of the world's finest, making the country an attractive culinary destination. Aside from providing you with your first rainforest adventure, the Delfin is also a unique culinary experience, offering the best of Amazonian-Peruvian cuisine in a cosmopolitan gourmet setting. Our chef prides himself in serving dishes in different styles and seasoned with a wide variety of herbs and spices, as well as exotic fruits.
09:30 pm. Briefing and time to relax
On the top observation deck, our guides will use charts and short videos displayed on our flat LCD screen to conduct a brief orientation, outlining details of your journey, including the places you will visit, the wildlife you will see, as well as a summary of the history and geography of the Amazon basin.
Finally, under the beauty of an Amazonian night filled with hundreds of stars or perhaps a full moon, and wafted by the gentle breeze of the rainforest, our multitalented staff will entertain you with a little live music.

Day 3: Canopy Walk/ Primary Forest hike, Tawampa Lake / Nauta Caño Exploration
07:00 am. Breakfast
You will get used to our wonderful breakfast festival, with all natural juices and really
exotic fresh food that our kitchen personnel will point you, we are sure that you have
never tasted some of them.
08:00 am. Private Reserve “La Posada” canopy walk
This is a unique opportunity; you will get to the only Canopy Walkway in this area, an experience unequaled in the rainforest! At a height of over 25 meters (85 feet) and
extending for 500 meters (one-third of a mile), the Canopy Walkway provides a view of the rainforest from the treetops, the best vantage point for observing Amazon wildlife and vegetation. The Canopy Walkway is accessible to all and requires no special skills or equipment. The suspended walkway is spread between 14 of the area's largest rainforest trees and is one of the longest canopy walkways in the world. You will enjoy“Terra Firma” forest and you will be able to see the differences between your previous hike and this one.
We will be back canoeing the Tawampa lake were giant arapaima (biggest fresh
waters fish in the world) perhaps will be one of the sights while rowing slowly through.
10:30 am. Back Aboard the Deflin I
We will continue our upstream navigation towards the formation of the Amazon River.
01:00 pm. Lunch
To continue with your unique adventure, our creative chef will continue amaze you with the innovative creations he has designed for you. While explaining every detail of the local food you will learn more and more about life in this pristine and unique area.
04:00 pm. Nauta Caño Exploration, fishing experience & night safari
At this time we will have the chance to explore this small creek, lagoons, its wonderful dynamic and stunning panoramas. Cruising is the best way to experience the diversity of the wildlife that populates the rivers and their neighboring habitats. We will sail quietly near shore, exploring marshes, streams and oxbows.
On board our excursion skiffs, we will head to a beautiful lake for a spectacular spot,
where we expect to catch some fish; the target again, will be “piranhas”. During the
rainier season, river flood and low forest have more than 1 meter (3 ft.) of water
standing at the base of the trees. Flowering and fruiting time coincide with this flooding, fish including piranhas swim in among the base of the trees to devour the fruit or chew at their outer coverings. So the undeserved super-carnivore reputation of piranhas as a bloody thirsty fish is really exaggerated. There are 25 different species of piranha in the Amazon basin, black, white, red bellied. They are so smart and fun to catch.
Once it is dark, you will hear the second installment of the jungle symphony. Armed with powerful spot lights, we will start our night safari in search of night herons, pauraques, spectacled owls, up to a dozen species of croaking from the river’s edge, and fish bats flying over the water scooping up fish.
Spectacled and black caimans are found in these pristine waters, and our guides will point them out to you. Stargazing at this time is unique while fireflies light up the jungle around us.
07:00 pm. Back Aboard the Delfin I
08:00 pm. Dinner
We will continue to surprise you with the variety of our menu.
