Launched in early 2006, M/V Delfin I is the original luxury Amazon vessel, setting the standards for quality and sophistication. It was fully refurbished in 2010. Delfin I is also the smallest and most exclusive, with only 4 suites total. At that size, it can offer a highly personalized and private experience rich in amenities. The deluxe suites, for example, feature individual whirlpool baths and 180 degree panoramic window views. All suites are complete with a private wooden deck.
Guests can also enjoy common areas such as the dining room where five-star cuisine will be served, and a top deck lounge for river viewing and stargazing. Its point of embarkation is the city of Nauta, south of the gateway city of Iquitos. Delfin I takes pride in its exciting activities, including a canopy walk, a local community visit, and jungle excursions guided by expert naturalists in the vessel’s two aluminum skiffs. NEW! Delfin I recently added stand-up paddleboards for an exciting way to experience the calm, still waters of the Pacaya Samiria National Reserve.
