    Four nights on the Aria Amazon Cruise

    This is the only way to see part of the Amazon River. The Aria Amazon has 16 suites with floor-to-ceiling windows, all-inclusive, knowledgeable guides, amazing service, and delicious food. I took the 4 nights cruise through the Peruvian Amazon with family and friends. The whole entire journey felt very intimate. You get to know all the staffs and other guests on the ship.

    Interesting to see the Amazon.

    Our guides and excursions were very good, but too short. Too much time on the ship between excursions. Did not like the family style meals, did not allow for choices and food not always that tasty or appealing. Restaurant service is poor.

    7 days on the Aria in the Amazon!

    This trip was fabulous! The Aria is a very very comfortable ship with a crew that is SUPER accommodating! Your request is their command. The food is 5 star with superb accommodations. The nature guides are Very experienced, knowledgeable with your safety always being paramount! You’ll see and learn about plants, fish, animals and the local inhabitants! I’ve had the good fortune of traveling much and this trip was as good or better than all the rest!

    Aqua Nera - Floating 4- Star Hotel

    I did not go on the Aqua Aria but on their sister ship, the Aqua Nera for a 8 day / 7 night excursion. From my arrival at Iquitos airport to sending me off on the last day of my adventure, I was pampered and extremely well looked after. My accommodation was luxurious, and extremely comfortable. The same can be said of the lounge, bar and dining area In terms of experience, it was out of this world. A great thank you to the crew of the Aqua Nera and especially Ivanna, our cruise director. Certainly a trip that one should not miss.

    Amazing time on the Amazon

    The cruise was amazing from every aspect. The crew, food, tour guides, accomodations. We got up close to lots of diverse wild life and every excursion were on smaller boats departing from the main boat which made things carefree and easy. They had all the equipment necessary from rain ponchos, bug spray, boots for jungle hike, etc. the cabins were spacious and well appointed and air conditioned with a big shower. The food was local and outstanding. It was a great way to see the Amazon.

    4-Day Amazon River Luxury Cruise from Iquitos on the 'Aria': questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Iquitos.

    How much does 4-Day Amazon River Luxury Cruise from Iquitos on the 'Aria' cost?

    +

    Prices start at $4,490 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Iquitos usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does 4-Day Amazon River Luxury Cruise from Iquitos on the 'Aria' take?

    +

    Plan for about 96 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Iquitos is not rushed.

    Is 4-Day Amazon River Luxury Cruise from Iquitos on the 'Aria' worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 49 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.6/5 across 19 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable outdoors in Iquitos, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule 4-Day Amazon River Luxury Cruise from Iquitos on the 'Aria'?

    +

    No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.

    Is 4-Day Amazon River Luxury Cruise from Iquitos on the 'Aria' suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 96-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book 4-Day Amazon River Luxury Cruise from Iquitos on the 'Aria'?

    +

    Around 7 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Iquitos can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Iquitos and add a light layer if any part of the 96-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does 4-Day Amazon River Luxury Cruise from Iquitos on the 'Aria' start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Iquitos within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Iquitos?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Iquitos experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Pacaya Samiria Mystical 3 Days, 4 days 3 nights on the banks of the Amazon River, Amazing Jungle 3Days 2Nights - Amazon Wonder Expeditions. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Iquitos?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Iquitos?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in 4-Day Amazon River Luxury Cruise from Iquitos on the 'Aria'?

    +

    Included: Round-trip airport transfers; Bilingual English- and Spanish-speaking guide; Activities mentioned in the itinerary; Lunch; and Dinner. Not included: Gratuities; Additional services on the Aria; and Alcoholic drinks. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
