Embark on the voyage of a lifetime, sailing the earth's mightiest river - the Amazon. The first true luxury vessel in the region, the M/V Aqua caters to the most discriminating and adventurous of world travellers, providing an unforgettable journey into areas penetrated by only a privileged few.
As your ship docks along the river, knowledgeable and experienced naturalists will take you, via small launches, into remote estuaries in the Peruvian rain forest and the Pacaya Samiria Reserve.
As you explore these pristine wilderness areas teeming with wildlife, you will also encounter local people living in villages as they have for centuries. And when the day's sightseeing is over, the comforts of your luxurious floating hotel will await you.
M/V Aqua is Aqua Expedition's 130-foot flagship. Its 12 luxury guest suites, designed by an internationally renowned Peruvian interior designer, measure a generous 230 to 240 square feet, and feature large, outwardfacing panoramic windows and en suite sitting areas.
All suites are air conditioned,and four are interconnected,to cater to families. Guests can socialize in the dining room, bar, on the observation deck and in the outdoor lounge. There is also a small boutique. You'll be served by a crew of 14, plus three skilled guides. Rates
include all excursions, meals, and wine with meals.
Guests may choose three-, four-, or seven-night itineraries. Each day will bring amazing new wonders, as guests set out with guides in a fleet of three launches to float toward the source of the mighty Amazon. Each day, you will explore the small inlets and various winding river systems that make up the flooded forest. Pacaya Samiria Reserve, located on the headwaters of the Amazon basin, spans more than five million acres. Twice the
size of Yellowstone Park, it teems with wildlife and aquatic life. Visitors will have the opportunity to see hundreds
of species, including the endangered pink Amazon dolphin, black alligator, and giant river otter.
Explorers aboard the Aqua will enjoy a menu of fresh, delicious world-renowned Peruvian fare, whether served on board or on an adventure. Dinner each evening promises to be a culinary feast for the senses, paired with select wines from South America. The menu has been created with the assistance of Pedro Miguel Schiaffino, one of Peru's top ten chefs.
