  • You have more than 2-8 days at hand
  • You are excited about exploring untouched pristine forests and don’t mind that they aren’t easily accessible

Other Destinations for Amazon Tours In Peru

The Amazon Rainforest! We’ve all heard about it, and seen it in movies and it definitely is a huge reason for a lot of travelers to come to South America. Watching wild animals and birds, sailing through the Amazon River, and being towered by tall canopies are straight out of a storybook!

Peru is blessed with large swathes of the Amazon spread which covers 60% of the country. That’s right, it covers three-fifths of Peru. This often confuses travelers about where to visit the Amazon in Peru. You might be wondering how you can visit the Amazon in Peru and which part of the Amazon is the best value for you. Here’s everything you need to know about the Peruvian Amazon!

Understanding the Peruvian Jungle

You can visit the  Amazon in Peru in three different regions, these three offer distinct experiences with varying difficulty and costs. Each location also has unique fauna that you might not find in the others. We’ve got all the information you need to decide which Amazon tours to pick as your best choice.

Where else to go besides Manu National Park?

From the majestic Amazon River to the lush rainforest, Peru is home to some of the world’s most breathtaking and diverse ecosystems. With its remarkable biodiversity, incredible wildlife, and rich cultural history, it’s no wonder that Peru has become a hotspot for ecotourism. For those looking to explore the Amazon rainforest in Peru, there 3 major rainforest destinations, offering a variety of experiences for travelers.

  •  Tambopata National Reserve

(Puerto Maldonado)

Your second option in exploring the Amazon is the beautiful Tambopata and Madre de Dios area. This part of the Amazon is a transition from tropical to sub-tropical heaven that is close to the Bolivian border. It’s a haven for birdwatching lovers and is blessed with rich tree cover and a bustling ecosystem filled with incredible animals and birds.

Here’s where you go to spot endangered otters and caimans by the river and see beautiful macaws and toucans in the habitat. You’ll also get to experience the macaw clay licks phenomenon where 6 species of colorful elegant macaws come together every morning near clay walls built through river sediment and eat them! Imagine walking among canopies through bridges and watching groups of colorful macaws congregate on clay walls!

Puerto Maldonado is the gateway to this reserve and is a 12-hour bus ride from Cusco but the easier and safer option is a 30min flight from Cusco. Once you get there, you begin your tours which take you deep into the jungle. While Iquitos is a whole major city in itself, Puerto Maldonado is more of a quiet starting point for various trips

Tambopata is perfect for you if:

  • You enjoy bird-watching and are excited to see the world-famous macaw clay licks
  • If you are looking for something cheaper and still easily accessible while taking you into deeper forests
  • If you prefer less-touristy areas which still have all the necessary amenities and more pristine jungle.

Things to note

You will need at least 4 days for a meaningful experience in Tambopata, if you have a shorter time, better go for Iquitos as you still get 1–2-day tours there. Follow the Link to see our Tambopata Tour Packages.

2. Iquitos

It’s the largest jungle city in the world which cannot be reached on land. That’s right, you either have to get there by boat or on a flight. The flights are frequent and cheap from Lima and Cusco, so Iquitos are easy to access. The boats are definitely for the adventurous ones, as you float down the amazon river for two days, sleeping on hammocks and sharing the journey with locals and tourists. Iquitos is the gateway to a multitude of Amazon tours and the city itself is a sprawling vibrant metropolis in the jungle.

In its former glory, Iquitos was a prosperous city because of rubber plantations and you will still see the remains of that in glorious huge mansions spread across the city. It’s a huge city with every tourist facility you need. It even has an active nightlife scene.

Keep in mind though, Iquitos is the only place where the Amazon River flows through and not its smaller tributaries. This makes it the perfect place for river cruises where you can find plenty of wildlife and swim through waters with piranhas. You can also choose from one of the many jungle tours that get you close to Amazonian flora and fauna. Except to see anacondas, monkeys, and caimans among others.

Who is Iquitos perfect for?

  • Those looking for the main Amazon River. Perfect if you want to take river cruises
  • Great for luxury in the jungle. Iquitos is the place to be if you prefer your creature’s comforts as there are a lot of comfortable luxurious tours, both jungle and river cruises you can find
  • If you’re in Lima and looking for something that’s a flight away! As Iquitos is a major tourism hub, you’ll find tours suited to every budget.
  • If you’re excited about sighting piranhas, pink dolphins, uakari bold monkeys, and various fauna.

Things to keep in mind

While being a major city with a 450,000,000 population means you get all amenities you desire it also means there is a lot of fishing and logging activity that doesn’t leave the surroundings as pristine. It’s also a hub for Ayahuasca and plant medicine healing.

Great Trip!

I was looking for last-minute jungle tours from Cusco and luckily I found Wild Watch Peru. online, I must admit it was an incredible experience which ended up being a private tour with just me and my girlfriend. It was the highlight of our 24 day trip around Peru and is what I miss the most.

Incredible Experience!

I went on the 8 days Manu National Park Tour and it was hands down one of the best things I’ve ever done in my life. It was an incredible experience entering what is considered as one of the last remaining pristine areas of the Amazon Rainforest in the world, this is the most recommended tour operator.

A Lifetime Experience!!

We chose this tour because of Luis’s more timely and kind response than other Manu National Park tours operators. He even visited our hotel the day before the tour to make sure that we’re properly prepared. I never expected such good food quality in a Peru jungle trip!
