Life On Board

The Aqua Nera feels fresh, elegant, and thoughtfully designed. Interiors take inspiration from the cultures and colours of Peru, with a contemporary style rarely found on Amazon riverboats.

Suites are bright and comfortable, with large windows that keep the scenery close. Public spaces are equally inviting, whether relaxing with a drink in the lounge, cooling off in the plunge pool, or watching the river drift by from the outdoor deck.

There is also a spa for massage treatments, a gym with panoramic views, and a private screening room for quiet evenings on board.

Dining

Food is one of the standout experiences on the Aqua Nera. Menus created by acclaimed chef Pedro Miguel Schiaffino celebrate the flavours of the Amazon and Peru’s world-famous cuisine.

Fresh fish, tropical fruits, local produce, and creative regional dishes are served with care, alongside premium wines and cocktails.

Exploring the Amazon

Each day brings a new way to experience the rainforest. Guided excursions take guests out by skiff, kayak, canoe, and on foot to explore hidden waterways and forest trails.

Depending on the route, guests may spot pink river dolphins, monkeys, sloths, and colourful birdlife. Other experiences can include swimming in blackwater tributaries, fishing for piranha, visiting local communities, cycling through riverside villages, and touring the Manatee Rescue Center.

Why Choose Aqua Nera

The Aqua Nera is ideal for travelers who want the Amazon without giving up comfort. With modern design, warm service, excellent guides, and memorable dining, it offers a polished and rewarding way to experience Peru’s rainforest.
