Journey Down the Amazon
Gay Travel Destinations and Romance Voyages proudly present the exotic Amazon River for 6 nights of awesome natural beauty. Start your journey in Lima. Explore the vast history and modern pulse of this very metropolitan city.
After 2 nights in Lima, fly to Iquitos, the remote yet surprisingly gay friendly city in the rainforest. Enjoy one night exploring Iquitos, the largest city in the Peruvian rainforest.
The next day board the m/v Delfin II for an amazing 3 night sailing
on the Amazon. The Delfin II is a floating 5-star hotel with modern
amenities you would find at the most posh hotel. Veteran guides take
you where few have gone before. You will be some of the few people in
the world to visit the remote Pacaya Samiria Reserve, five million acres
of protected, flooded forest. You will see the amazing exotic flora and
fauna of the most pristine rainforest on earth: monkeys, alligators,
giant lily-pads, baby caimans, anacondas, boas, gray and pink river
dolphins and a mind-boggling assortment of exotic birds. The natural
beauty of the Amazon River is unequaled anywhere in the world.
Throughout, gourmet chefs translate an exotic blend of Peruvian,
Brazilian, and Colombian food with influences from the Andes and the
Pacific Coast into works of modern culinary artistry. Dining aboard
the Delfin II is an amazing experience.

Launched in March of 2009, this ship is not what you would expect to be sailing on the remote Amazon River; it is more like a boutique hotel on South Beach. At a mere 120 feet long she is just the right size to navigate the river and keep her 28 pampered guests in the lap of luxury. All staterooms include huge windows, queen sized beds with orthopedic mattresses, natural cotton sheets and towels, silent A/C units and private bathrooms with fine wooden furnishings, hot showers and a variety of environmentally friendly toiletries.
The elegant dining room is set with glowing candle-light, fine china, and crystal. Expert chefs take Peruvian cuisine, considered one of the worlds finest, to new heights. Local ingredients, fine South American wines, and fine service mix to create a dining experience one would never expect on the remote Amazon.
The third deck is the open observation deck. Cushy sofas and hammocks are perfect for catching the breezes and watching the amazing sights go by. Throughout the ship, artwork by some of Peru's leading contemporary artists is proudly displayed. |
