- Piranha fishing. Pink dolphin spotting. Dancing with local tribe members. A trip to Peru's Amazon jungle has it all! We knew we wanted to experience the world's biggest rainforest when we went to Peru, but figuring out where to go, what to do and how long to stay there can be overwhelming. So we've got you covered! Here's a look at our itinerary for four days and three nights outside of Iquitos, Peru.
Some quick tips:
-We highly recommend Maniti Expeditions! We loved our guide Alfredo and had a great experience overall.
-Stay for at least two but preferably three nights. It takes a while to get there, so one night isn't enough. But it is rustic, so unless you're used to roughing it, more than three nights might start to wear on you.
-Most tour companies provide rain boots, but they may not be in great shape. So bring plenty of extra socks or your own boots if you can.
-Other waterproof gear, such as ponchos and backpack covers, will come in handy.
-Bring a headlamp for night hikes!
-The bugs are no joke. Get your recommended vaccinations, bring plenty of bug spray and wear long clothes despite the heat.
-Bring cash to buy drinks and to tip your guide and staff.
-Don't drink the water, even to brush your teeth. And bring Imodium just in case some slips in!

I just came from Peru a few days ago . I was there for two months. One month in the Amazon . And Lima the last month. The jungle is amazing. My whole purpose of going to Peru was to do Ayuasca . It was all worth it.
Hey, my neighborhood guys. Thanks for visiting✌️👍🙏💪❤️ greetings from Santa Clara de Ojeal 🌴🌴🌴 Jungle Harry @ Friends of The Amazon Jungle ✌️
thank you for sharing ! teamo peru
Hi we got back from 1 month in Peru 3 months ago..8 days we spend at Maniti Lodge, we would live and die there..truly enjoyed this adventure, we felt truly safe ... thank you Maniti, 😊
The monkey😍😍😍 so sweet. I have planning to go, good reference. Thx
Been there. Done that, and it was AMAZING !
Those trees are massive! Seems like such an amazing place to explore. So cool
Thank you for your video me and Jan both enjoyed it. We are going later in the year so it was nice to watch.
Very interesting! We've never been to Peru, great to know what to expect
Thanks for watching! Peru is so amazing. We plan to do at least one more video on other parts of our trip. So much to see there!
Great to hear. Look me up when you get here. Would love to host. Jungle Harry
We were thinking of finding a guide once arriving
👍
Beautiful video you have inspired me to go here
Awesome adventure.. I wish I could do one week in an Amazon jungle.
Awesome video! Did you feel safe during this experience? Did you book it with maniti expeditions?
How much per night is the stay? All inclusive foods?

Hi, loved your video, which month you went?
Did you hear any local’s talking about Los Pelacaras?
Across the river from the floating bar with piranha I have my Fishing and Hunting Lodge :) Welcome to the Jungle guys enjoy :)
Did you need more limited suitcases going here?? We will be going for 2 weeks to Peru, and this is the last part of it, so our luggage wont be light. So just wondering.
Sorry hears that you said it that you booked with maniti. But did you feel safe and all? In peru in general too?
Yes we did! We kept our wits about us going through some bits of Lima at night, but never felt too concerned. And definitely felt safe everywhere outside the city!
where is the place exactly?
great video! In my case my experience was different, for video and instagram purposes that lodge called tree house is very nice and even something luxurious, the problem is at night, since the rooms do not have windows, the only thing that will save you from a tarantula or snake while you sleep It is a mosquito net or mesh which makes you think about it during the night so you don't get to sleep for fear that some animal will get into your room... I use the internet in the jungle in a cabin-type hostel At that time, I was able to get a promo with yakumama tours, according to what I read in other comments, it is the most reliable for hospitalizations and well, it went well, good attention and the good thing is that their rooms are well closed, now you can sleep peacefully, what if An important detail is that due to the geography, the telephone and internet signal does not reach, so if you do teleworking it is not a good option. A detail for travelers is not to book the tours with a swimming pool, it is super dangerous because they usually do not maintain it and there is the problem of the mosquitoes and that amoeba and then if something happens to you they do not give you a guarantee, take it into account travelers to take their own bottled water to avoid upset stomach in the amazon.
