Mv Aqua / Iquitos (4D,5D,8D)
The new M/V Aqua, is the first true luxury vessel ever to cruise the northern Amazon. Its 12 over sized guest suites, including four 180° panoramic master suites, feature en suite sitting areas and generous outward-facing panoramic windows. Each of the handsomely decorated, air-conditioned suites measures between 230 to 240 square feet and is designed by noted Peruvian architect Jordi Puig. Four suites can be interconnected to cater to families. You can socialize in the dining room, indoor lounge, on the observation deck, and in the outdoor lounge. The ship also has a small boutique.
What you see along the river depends on the length of your stay. The heart of every visit, however, will be the fascinating Pacaya Samiria Reserve, located on the headwaters of the Amazon basin. And the highlight of each day’s journey will be the pristine wilderness areas teeming with wildlife and amazing plant life, such as the colossal Victoria Regia water lilies. You will also encounter—and have the chance to interact with—local people living in villages as they have for centuries. When the day’s sightseeing is over, the comforts of your luxurious floating hotel await you.
