Hola,
we have done it in 2002, but coming from Peru. No big problems, but take your own water and food on boats in Peru. Dont eat the food prepared for you on this boats, because it is made with river water.
First boat will go for you from Manaus to Leticia (Colombia), the port next to Leticia in Brazil (sorry forgot the name). This is the best boat.
Second boat goes from the other side of Leticia, which is Peru, to Iquitos. To get to the port you will have to cross over by canoe. This is the worst boat.
Third boat is from Iquitos to Pucalpa.
Its a very nice journey, just relax and take your time (two to three weeks is good).
Enjoy
Mika
