The onboard dining experience is one of the highlights of the Ama Melodia cruise. The chefs blend local Amazonian ingredients with international flavors, creating meals that are not only delicious but also showcase the rich biodiversity of the region. Expect to taste exotic fruits, fresh fish straight from the river, and local delicacies like paiche, one of the largest freshwater fish in the world.

To further enhance the experience, guests can enjoy cooking demonstrations that reveal the secrets of Amazonian cuisine, learning how to make dishes like juanes or traditional ceviche. Wine pairings with dinner, featuring fine South American wines, elevate the dining experience to new heights.
