    5 Stars for every detail

    The La Perla Naturalist team led us on a wonderful tour of the Amazon. Their excitement to share their regional knowledge was infectious. I was amazed by their ability to recognize all the distinct sounds the different birds and monkeys made. They were even able to “call” monkeys closer to our group! We went out on various trips looking for wildlife and always had success in finding different creatures… from birds to spiders and finally an anaconda! I appreciate that we also had Marco there to support as the ships paramedic. That really made everyone feel safe as we did several nature hikes. The food was also top notch! We had all types of different local cuisine. The chef even mixed things up with Italian and Asian nights! At night before dinner, the staff became musicians and entertained us with local music. They were spectacular! The team at La Perla thought of everything. You will not be disappointed if you choose La Perla for your Amazon tour.

    Cruising the Amazon

    We had a memorable experience on our 7 day 6 night cruise with La Perla. This was actually our first cruise EVER! The boat had everything we needed, private rooms with bathrooms, AC, comfortable common areas, amazing food. We were even able to watch the World Cup games. The crew and guides were amazing. Daniel and Victor were extremely knowledgeable. Their love of the Amazon, the people and the wildlife was evident. They were excited to share this unbelievable place they call home. The crew!! Oh my!! They are VERY talented musicians. They play for us for 3 night! So much fun. So happy we chose La Perla.

    Amazing experience

    We were on a 4-day cruise, and the trip exceeded all of our expectations. The meals were delicious, and the cabin was very comfortable. There was plenty of hot water, and the water pressure was excellent. We ate well and slept comfortably throughout the trip. The service on board was top-notch. Everyone was attentive, friendly, and accommodating. Our room was always well-kept and clean. There were also multiple activities offered throughout the day, which kept the experience exciting and engaging. We saw many birds and monkeys, went piranha fishing, and even had the opportunity to swim in the Amazon River. The naturalist guides were incredibly knowledgeable and experienced. They could identify birds by sound and even mimic their calls, which was amazing to witness. We thoroughly enjoyed our experience in the jungle and would highly recommend it. The only thing we wished for was spotting an anaconda!

    Great staff marvelous food unforgettable journey

    What a great experience on the la Perla boat, the staff was very friendly, the food was delicious and the atmosphere was warm. The staff did more than their best to make you feel comfortable and memorable and the naturalists had a lot of knowledge. It is also important that the whole fleet participates in project that supports the nature and the local communities. Great trip with wonderful memories.

    Exceeded our expectations

    We take the 6 Day Tour, it's worth it Take the longest tour. From the reservation the treatment was professional, proactive and friendly. Very friendly crew. With morning and afternoon boat trips, guides Roger and Victor enthusiastically and wisely teach life in the Amazon. With a maximum capacity of 28 passengers the boat is super comfortable. Thanks to the guides we saw many birds, anteaters, monkeys, alligators, sloth, anacondas, alligators and dolphins. We weigh piranhas, wear a shaman, dress communities. We really enjoyed it. The tour exceeded our expectations.

    7-Day Amazon River Luxury Cruise from Iquitos on 'La Perla': questions travelers ask

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

    How much does 7-Day Amazon River Luxury Cruise from Iquitos on 'La Perla' cost?

    +

    Prices start at $4,084 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 7-Day Amazon River Luxury Cruise from Iquitos on 'La Perla' take?

    +

    Plan for about 168 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 7-Day Amazon River Luxury Cruise from Iquitos on 'La Perla' worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 46 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.5/5 across 11 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 7-Day Amazon River Luxury Cruise from Iquitos on 'La Perla'?

    +

    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 7-Day Amazon River Luxury Cruise from Iquitos on 'La Perla' suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 168-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book 7-Day Amazon River Luxury Cruise from Iquitos on 'La Perla'?

    +

    Around 4 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 168-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does 7-Day Amazon River Luxury Cruise from Iquitos on 'La Perla' 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.
