Our expedition begins in the Miami International Airport, where we are met and assisted in preparation for our evening departure on American Airlines.
Dinner is served aboard our nonstop flight to Lima, Peru.
On arrival we clear immigration and customs and transfer to our hotel for the night. After a leisurely breakfast, we transfer to the airport for a short flight over the spectacular Andes Mountains to Iquitos. Upon arrival we go directly to our vessel, where we will spend the coming week. We cast off soon afterward, and begin our journey into the greatest wilderness on Earth. Tonight as we cruise up the Amazon, the stars present an incredible spectacle of both northern and southern constellations.
