January 9, 2026 for 8 nights, hosted by M&K on a private charter of a brand new ship designed to explore the heart of the Amazon. Includes pre night in Lima, with hotel, airport transfers, and roundtrip flights Lima/Iquitos. From Iquitos we have the ship to ourselves for 7 nights aboard our Sanctuary! Everything on board is included: fine dining, wine, beer, spirits, tea, coffee, water, excursions, and more.
The Amazon Basin is the biggest tropical rainforest on earth. Realistically, there’s only one way to explore it: by boat. And certainly, there’s only one way to explore it, in the highest of style: aboard Pure Amazon.
The state-of-the-art river boat is unique in the region in terms of both material comfort and human expertise. A maximum of 22 passengers per cruise guarantees an intimate, focused experience, in which every detail is managed by a best-in-class local team.
Pure Amazon operates three-, four- and seven-night itineraries in and around the Pacaya-Samiria National Reserve, a pristine protected area of some 21,000 square kilometres in northern-eastern Peru. The opportunities for wildlife-spotting – from pink dolphins to colourful macaws – are matchless, whether on expert-guided excursions by land or water or observed through one of the panoramic windows in your own superbly appointed cabin, as you contemplate a sunset glass of something chilled and interesting on the sun deck before a leisurely dinner prepared by your onboard chef. The rainbow-plumed macaws themselves will gaze down and squawk in envy from their treetop perches.

Because this is a private charter, we can only hold space until January 25th, 2025. So we will need to have the cruise fully booked (22 passengers) before then or it will cancel. If it cancels in this case you would get a refund of your deposit (20%). If the charter is secured by that date, then the deposit becomes nonrefundable. The Final Payment will be due July 1, 2025.
Ask about our optional extension in Peru to visit Machu Picchu and the Sacred Valley.
