Aria Amazon

An Extra Special Way to Experience the Magic of the Amazon River and Surrounding Rainforest

Although she is already a relatively new ship, with her maiden voyage in 2011, the 32 capacity Aria Amazon recently underwent a thorough refurbishment in order to maintain her excellent standards of facilities and accommodation. The Aria has 16 sophisticated Design Suites, ample outdoor and inside living spaces, five-star cuisine and a river-facing outdoor Jacuzzi all to rival a top luxury hotel.

Peruvian architect Jordi Puig used his famously innovative style to design the sleek black river vessel, using largely sustainable materials for its construction. Interiors are intimate yet spacious, with luxurious furnishings and top of the range lighting, likening the Aria to a well-appointed boutique hotel. Panoramic views of the rainforest can be enjoyed from all communal spaces on board, such as the dining room, lounge and even from the gym. The 14 Suites are decorated with calm, neutral colours and fabrics and offer guests a comfortable retreat from which to observe the passing scenery. Private en-suite bathrooms feature organic amenities and rain showers, in-line with the eco-friendly ethos of the Aqua fleet. Four of the Aria’s Suites can be interconnected for families. Award-winning and globally recognised chef Pedro Miguel Schiaffino is responsible for creating imaginative and delicious local gourmet dishes on board, claiming that 70% of ingredients are sourced from the rivers that guests will explore along their journey.

Exciting and varied itineraries offered aboard the Aria are either 3, 4 or 7 nights in length, giving travellers the choice of a gentler Amazon introduction or a longer in-depth adventure. Two English-speaking naturalist guides lead group activities two or three times a day, with the primary objective of bringing guests close to the incredible range of unique species of flora and fauna.

Highlights

• Gourmet dining with delicious local flavours
