The 28-passenger Delfin II is a stately riverboat, built for the express purpose of exploring deep into the Peruvian Amazon at the headwaters of this mighty river—and doing so in modern tropical style.
Delfin II comfortably accommodates 28 guests in 10 suites and four master suites. At 120 feet, she is perfectly sized to sail along the upper Amazon River.
Public Spaces
Her public spaces are luxurious and well-appointed and offer sweeping views of the river and rain forest. Furnishings are made of sustainably harvested local rain forest wood, and the ship is decorated with handicrafts from the ribereños, native people of the wildlife preserve we explore. A gracious hotel staff makes an art of providing impeccable shipboard services.
Her top deck offers an open-air observation lounge with a bar and comfy chairs ideal for relaxing at the day’s end and watching the jungle scenery glide past. The top deck’s air-conditioned presentation room at the stern with large picture windows on three sides is where photo talks and daily Recaps are held. With board games, computer stations, and comfortable seating with a contemporary flair, this room is also perfect for relaxing.
Lounge & Bar
Relax between rain forest adventures in the open-air lounge outfitted with big, soft sofas and chairs—perfect for catching the breeze and watching river life glide past. The bartender will always be on hand with options for continental and local cocktails, and coffee and tea are always available.
The air-conditioned lounge on the top deck lounge is the heart of our expedition community. It is where we’ll hold evening Recaps and presentations from staff. Coffee, snacks, and juice are put out before breakfast for early risers.
Dining
Dining aboard the Delfin II offers a window on the region. All food served aboard, with the exception of olive oil and balsamic vinegar, is sourced from sustainable providers. We can accommodate most special dietary requests; but due to the remoteness of our expedition, any requests need to be made 45 days in advance.
The gracious dining room, located aft on the upper deck, offers open seating for meals with unassigned tables. All guests are served in a single seating. Meal hours are posted aboard.
Delfin II Details
Delfin II accommodates 28 guests in 14 superb outside-facing suites. Each offers a large window or several large windows that look out onto the river and rain forest we’re exploring. Every suite aboard is a more than comfortable space to end your active day and begin each morning.
Every spacious suite has a minimalist décor and luxurious overtones, and all are air-conditioned with individual controls. In your suite’s bathroom, you’ll find showers stocked with organic shampoo, conditioner, and shower gel. A hairdryer and bathrobes are provided as well as moisturizing lotion, a sunscreen and insect repellant combo, plus an iron and ironing board, though our casual, expedition-style of travel ensures you’ll likely have no need to press your clothes for exploring.
