The 32-passenger Aria Amazon debuted in 2011, joining sister Aqua Amazon as the second luxury ship custom-built by Aqua Expeditions (in collaboration with Peruvian architect Jordi Puig) for the Amazon River and its tributaries. Slightly larger — at 147 feet and accommodating 32 passengers (versus Aqua Amazon’s 130 feet and 24 passengers) — Aria Amazon provides a five-star base from which to experience the wonders of the Peruvian rain forest.
