6 days in Iquitos, Nauta and Pacaya Samiria

Six days for Iquitos and a river stay through Nauta, with deliberate choices about overnight stops and the return journey.

What to expect

Start with two nights in Iquitos: arrive, spend time in the city and optionally visit Allpahuayo Mishana. Day three takes you to Nauta, where this example includes a night. Days four and five are for the agreed Pacaya Samiria stay. Day six is a return travel day, not a hidden extra excursion day. Compare this outline with the offered boat route and agree the overnight stops and return journey before booking.

How it fits into a journey

Only book a day-six flight once the provider confirms the complete return journey fits; otherwise fly the following day.

Practical answers

Can we include Allpahuayo?

Use day two if it interests you. Otherwise choose city time and rest. The itinerary does not need every available excursion.

Can we spend longer on the river?

Yes. Discuss moving the Nauta night or extend the trip. Do not remove the return buffer just to create another nature day on paper.
