"Wildlife near Iquitos" Top 5 Page for this destination Peru Tourist Trap Tip by SirRichard

If you are looking for wildlife and seeing animal in its natural environment around Iquitos, you will have to travel away from the city along the river, at least 2-3 HOURS. Don't trust those offering you animals seeing walkings if the lodge is less than 2 hours from Iquitos, as civilization made animals disappear in a big area around Iquitos.

Unique Suggestions: I went to Cumaceba Lodge as I was tired and just wanted to relax in a hammock, but if you are looking for some more adventure, don't take this lodge as basecamp, is nice but all animals are in farms.
