About a small anteater… (Part I)

January 2009

I was looking at the river, just standing still, and then, a small canoe pass bye, they were a family, the father was paddling on the front, the mother at the back, doing the same, in the middle, three small children, two boys and one girl, one of the boys had a small wooden box in his lap.

They came near me and show me something inside the wooden box, I saw and didn´t really realized what was it, then I saw that was a small animal, all I can see was a slim long nose, I was very surprised, they took him out, it was a small anteater, really little…..just a baby

It has been a wonderful trip….!

Actually all are, but his time we have had the visit of two great kids…! Jason & Kyle, they came with their parents and grandmother who came all the way from Miami. They were so enthusiast and active…..and always asking for more…..

They enjoyed everything….the boat, the food, the guides even our safety guard patrol …!

Una experiencia MARAVILLOSA es navegar en el Rio Amazonas y sus afluentes, cabe resaltar, no solo la belleza del lugar, que desde ya sabemos que está a punto de ser considerada una de las 7 maravillas naturales del mundo! Navegar por el Amazonas a bordo del crucero el Delfín II, es indescriptible, desde la llegada a la ciudad de Iquitos, una persona del Delfín II nos recibe cariñosamente y nos transmite desde ya la atención personificada que este crucero nos brindará en adelante, desde ahí, nuestro sueño se vuelve realidad.

Subimos a un bus, muy bien equipado, todo enchapado en madera, asientos confortable, aíre acondicionado y servicio de primera, los guías que nos acompañan en este trayecto hasta la ciudad de Nauta, a 95 kilómetros de Iquitos, nos hacen sentir desde ya que lo que viene será una gran experiencia.

Llegamos a la ciudad de Nauta, y bajamos al embarcadero (sala VIP) en el cual nos espera un refresco hecho de alguno de los tantos frutos que la Amazonía nos ofrece, la decoración es maravillosa, los detalles en cada rincón de este lindo salón reflejan el gusto en la decoración, se siente en cada uno de las personas que nos atienden el cariño y la amabilidad que nos acompañan a lo largo de esta estadía.

Luego abordamos unos botes auxiliares en medio de la noche, equipados con los chalecos y seguridades del caso, llegando al crucero Delfín II, impresionante, el espectáculo en medio de tanta belleza.

…And It has been one of the most extraordinary travel experiences I’ve ever had. The boat – and even the special dock you part from- is exquisite, like a five star Fitzcarraldo.

Everything is made from amazon woods and every detail is beautifully taken care of. It is very different from one of those multitude cruises.

On board the Dolphin you have around 28 people and plenty of private space to read and watch the Amazon River and every detail of the tropical rainforest. The crew on board is very well prepared, and charming.

The rooms are lovely. The food is first class level exotic with fruits and products of the Amazon you never knew existed- even if you’re the kind of person that’s more into eating than traveling, it is well worth the stay: splendid buffet breakfasts with wonderful fruits, and amazing meals with fresh amazon fish ceviches and a very creative amazonian interpretation of modern peruvian cuisine.
