About Aqua Expeditions

Aqua Expeditions offers customized luxury travel experiences aboard vessels of elegant, contemporary design, centered around immersive culture and wildlife excursions unique to each location, award-winning cuisine by renowned chefs, personalized guest service, and a commitment to community, sustainability and preservation.
 

Aqua Expeditions Cruises was launched in 2007 by founder and CEO, Francesco Galli Zugaro, to fulfill his dream of bringing unparalleled travel experiences, in the utmost comfort, to modern-day adventurers cruising the world’s greatest rivers.

Beginning with the Peruvian section of the Amazon River, one of the world’s last great unexplored regions, Galli Zugaro commissioned the custom design of the Aqua, the first cruise ship to set sail on this stretch of the Amazon. Entirely customized by acclaimed Peruvian architect Jordi Puig and with 12 outward facing suites, the Aqua Amazon offers a level of luxury unprecedented on the Amazon. With hand-crafted Amazon River itineraries to and from the remote Amazonian city of Iquitos, the Aqua Amazon carries travelers to the source of the Amazon and the remote Pacaya Samiria Reserve. Expert professional naturalist guides lead guests in small groups by skiff up Amazon River tributaries to first-hand encounters with Amazon wildlife. From pink dolphins and piranha to capuchin monkeys and three-toed sloth hiding in the rainforest canopy, to hoatzin, toucans and macaws gliding seemingly effortlessly across the cloudless, cerulean sky, there is no shortage of interesting wildlife to discover and explore along the Amazon River.

With itineraries released through 2023 and 2024 and already being booked, there’s no better time to book a trip to travel with Aqua Expeditions Cruises, a leader in luxury Amazon and Mekong river cruises.
