About This Trip

The Amazon packed into a single day. You cruise the river from Iquitos with a bilingual guide, watching the banks for monkeys, sloths and birds along the way.

The day mixes wildlife and culture: a stop at a wildlife rescue center, a visit to a Yagua village with a traditional blowgun demonstration, a jungle walk to a giant ceiba tree, and a sunset-hour cruise to finish.

Round-trip transport from Iquitos, lunch and your guide are included, which makes this the easy choice when you are short on time.

Easy — a relaxed pace, comfortable for all ages and fitness levels.

Moderate — longer days with more time on jungle trails and the water, which asks a little more of your body.
