You might know Delfin Amazon Cruises as a leader in luxury river cruising, but did you know they are also leaders in responsible tourism?<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Delfin Amazon Cruises<\/a>\u00a0visits one of the most remote environments in the world, so we are thrilled to spotlight their ongoing efforts to ensure the sustainability of the pristine environments and unique cultures within in the Pacaya Samiria National Reserve.<\/p>\n

Delfin\u00a0has partnered with\u00a0KUYAPA Foundation<\/a>\u00a0to engage\u00a0in a range of initiatives to\u00a0protect the environment and support native communities. While many Amazon communities are largely self-sufficient, their remote locations severely limit access to basic necessities. Delfin offers support through donations of clothing, medical supplies and educational resources, as well as projects to improve community infrastructure.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

But perhaps Delfin\u2019s greatest contribution is their commitment to local artisans, particularly women and children\u00a0of the Puerto Miguel community. Delfin features many unique art pieces on board their vessels and encourages guests to support remote communities by purchasing some of their colourful works. Along with monetary support, purchasing their artworks empowers individuals and the community at large to value\u00a0their unique culture and artistic skills.<\/p>\n

Guests have the opportunity to\u00a0visit\u00a0these communities during their cruise,\u00a0allowing both guests and locals to interact and learn from cultures that are very different from their own. Well done Delfin Amazon Cruises for leaving a positive mark on the Pacaya Samiria National Reserve as you share it with the world.<\/p>\n
