Belén Market & Floating City: Private Tour with a Local Guide

Jose!

Jose! Wonderful guide. The market is HUGE so having a tour with someone who knows where to go to see what, was pretty nice. The section with medicinal plants, powders, tonics etc. is really cool

Iquitos: Amazon Wildlife Tours Lodge Stay 3days 2nights

Great adventure and experience

The experience was great. We are very grateful to have chosen this tour and to have known the Amazon through him. Alan was very kind and made sure everything was great. We had the opportunity to meet Piero and have him as a guide and nothing could have been better. Thanks to him we saw lizards, sloths, fished for piranhas, etc. We would do it again without hesitation.

Full Nature 4 Days 3 Nights - Amazon Wonder Expeditions

Incredible almost private tour. All inclusive

After some research on instagram I found this tour group and booked direct. I paid 50% upfront for myself and my wife and paid the rest in cash once I collected. Luis was super chill with the booking and payment. Morning of the tour he collect us from my hotel in Iquitos and brought us to the port. This is where we met our guide and now a good friend Francisco. Very easy going person and super friendly from the beginning. He helped me a lot with buying some last minute supplies. After doing a very interesting tour of the market at the port we then got on the boat and met the other person on our tour. A total of 3 people. Myself, my wife and another lady. After this we went to our lodge which was around 2 hours. From the boat it was like 3 minutes walk. Amazing lodge and again we were the only guests until our last night. Food was served three times a day all meals were amazing. Different types of juice were also served at each meal. I brought my own beer as I can only imagine prices there. But they do have drinks there to buy, alcoholic and non alcoholic in a fridge. I was able to keep the drink I brought in their fridge. Day and night jungle walks are just by the lodge but for being only 2 hours away from Iquitos it’s amazing. The one thing that stood out was the noises, at different stages of the day there were different noises. Our trip brought us to different villages either by boat or by foot. All people were super friendly who we encountered. It seems like our guide knew a lot of locals there from his visits. Lodge facilities; room was nice and no insects got inside. Private bathroom was a nice treat. Showers are cold water only but being in that humidity it’s fine also the pressure was great. Room was big and had a fan which worked wonders. Power outlets were everywhere. Power was restricted but we had it more than what I thought. Evening you had the most time with power. But for breakfast and lunch we had power. They have starlink WiFi which unfortunately wasn’t strong enough the reach our room. But in the dining room it was super fast. The boat we used was nice and big. Very stable, safe to bring family with kids. I think for the price this tour is amazing, Highlights for me on this trip was lagoon at night, jungle walk day and night. Visiting the other villages, swimming in the Amazon and piranha fishing. We also got on another boat on a smaller river that was amazing too. I also must thank the chef and the boat operator. Tips for anyone thinking of going with this tour; bring cash- some villages there are small children which you buy candy for. The tribe you visit also sell some souvenirs that you can buy. Bring beer if you are like me, nothing beats a long day in the jungle than a cold beer. The lodge is your home and the rain or insects won’t bother you here. But on your trips out bring that insect repellent, we had spray and lotion. I had a head net but it wasn’t needed as it does block your view of the wildlife so it was left in our room for the remainder of the trip. Highly recommend Amazon wonder expeditions. Thank you to all the crew. Kevin
