The itinerary may be subject to slight modifications

From June 1 to October 31, the waters of the Amazon River and its tributaries lose part of their powerful flow. This causes some small changes to the itinerary. Additionally, due to weather conditions or river conditions, the itinerary may also be modified. This is to safeguard the integrity of each of the visitors. In any case, all the tourist attractions shown in the program are visited. In addition, everything offered in the service is included. It is recommended to choose a Lima – Iquitos flight in the morning and thus arrive on Sunday in total comfort. You can coordinate your program and arrival in Iquitos at info@machupicchuterra.com.
