Here comes Part II of one of the best local experiences you can get in Peru/Colombia. We spent 2 nights and 1 day on a local slow boat from Iquitos to Leticia. We left Iquitos, Peru, late at night on a cargo boat on the amazon river, and it was absolutely fantastic.
What do you need to know before you decide on this trip on a slow boat from Peru to Colombia:
- you have to fly to Iquitos because there is no road to access this city - boats leave every day from Monday to Saturday at 6pm, sometimes 8pm - on Sunday!
- you need to buy your own hammock - the price can vary by seller. We spend 10$ per person on hammock
- ticket for a slow boat is 26$ (80 Soles)
- you can also sleep in a cabin for 33$ (100 Soles) - we saw the place it is tiny, no window, but you can lock your stuff inside during the day and enjoy it on the deck
- you can buy a boat ticket on the departure day
- the boat is leaving from Puerto Mazusa
- you will arrive in Leticia around 6am, and you need to go to Peru immigration (which opens at 7am) to stamp out from the country and then take a boat to Colombian immigration to get a stamp of Colombia.
Hope this will help many adventurous travelers who take this slow boat from Iquitos, Peru, to Leticia, Colombia.

Any recommendations for Mexico, leave a comment. Gracias amigos 😍
Hi Krystina & Romain. That looked like quite a journey. I was in Mexico last year, and if you are still on the Yucatan peninsula, I would recommend going to Homun and do a cenotes tour with a local 'velotaxi'. One of the best memories of our trip!
You two are doing a great job taking that boat ride in a good mood all along
I have special connection to boats and vessels as I work as a planner for ocean going big container ships,I make sure that the load distribution is optimal
I am really curious how these river boats maintain their stability after loading and discharging the cargo and travellers without having any system to assist them and that too in a considerably smaller water body
I guess it all comes from experience
Thanks for the tour, Godspeed
People here use to listen music loud, I don't like but they are most ;)
Wow! Hats off to you. That is an adventure! Thanks for taking us with you.
We always enjoy your travels. ❤️ stay safe.
Yeah it was pretty cool! we wouldn't mind if it was longer. Thank you ❤️
you both are doing really a great job. I follow you when you were in India. Lovely couple
Thank you for following us even now 😊
😍😍😍
Hey Guys. That was an adventure...LOL Hey Romain.....If Kristyna will put up with this mode of travel she is the real deal and most definitely a "keeper". Did you know they also do this kind of travel on Cargo ships across the ocean?
I would have loved that journey. I hope you did, I'm not sure from the vlog. Still in a few years you will look back and wonder. Love, D.
Haha we actually did a lot! It was really good!
Jezz, this looks super uncomfortable trip, i am looking to do the same journey, do you know any other boats with proper passenger seats?
What an amazing journey! It seems maybe a bit boring at times, but special. How many people sleep on a boat in the Amazon?
Exactly. There were at least 200 people on both decks. Pretty packed.
Does sim card date work? And is there a place to charge devices?
Nice vlog my friend
Thank you very much 😊
