The 13 Best Amazon Tours in Peru

13 reviewed

Puerto Maldonado for Tambopata, Iquitos for the deeper river. These are the lodges and river trips that justify the flight: how many nights each runs, how far from town the lodge sits (the single best predictor of what you will see), whether the clay lick and the oxbow lakes are on the itinerary, and how much of day one the boat transfer swallows.

Tambopata Peruvian Amazon Jungle for Three Days/Two Nights

Tambopata Peruvian Amazon Jungle for Three Days/Two Nights - From Puerto Maldonado to Lunch, Then Straight Into the Canopy

1.Tambopata Peruvian Amazon Jungle for Three Days/Two Nights

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 329 reviews · 3 days · from $350Our pick

Three days in Peru’s Tambopata reserve with a canopy zipline, Madre de Dios river wildlife, Lake Sandoval birding, and a clay lick.

“The whole experience was a once in a lifetime experience. The condition of the lodging took us by surprise (no AC, little electricity, not very clean), but I think it is the best they can do in the jungle. Our guide Say was amazing and made the experience. He was very knowledgeable about everything in the jungle and also very friendly and caring. Would very much recommend for anyone that wants to connect with nature and doesn’t mind a little heat and dirt.”

Explore Belén Market and Venecia Loretana in Iquitos with local guide Marlon Ashanga, tastings, motokar rides, and floating village life.

“As a young woman traveling alone, I can attest to the safety of this tour with Marlon. He is clearly well respected by his neighbors. I had been warned by Google reviews on the Market to watch my pockets, but we were given a wide berth, no even came close to me while walking with him. I am very grateful to him for the experience he provided, it was very eye opening to get into the roots of the town and really see how the locals live. I will definitely be coming back, as well as recommending the experience to anyone I know that comes to Iquitos.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 74 reviews · 3 days · from $459

3-day all-inclusive guided jungle tour from Iquitos to Maniti Eco-Lodge, with Monkey Island monkeys, pink river dolphins, and night caiman spotting.

“First off, I do want to say that this is not a private tour, but a group tour. Our tour guide Rene was very friendly and knowledgeable, and everyone really enjoyed him. Monkey Island was amazing to see, as were the dolphins. I think we were quoted a more expensive price for the butterfly habitat than is normal when the woman taking the entrance fee was trying to give us change back, but our guide is telling her no.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 72 reviews · 4 days · from $585

Four days in Peru’s Tambopata with a small group, canopy views, Sandoval Lake wildlife, caiman night rides, and parrot clay lick.

“Little activities in between a lot of down time and probably an ease of time. 4 days could have easily been done in 2. Not too many animals to see. The lodging was not t organized well. No power or water or internet most times. The food was ok, but not really enough for everyone there. Not a real jungle adventure.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 62 reviews · 3 days · from $240

Small-group 3-day Amazon trip from Puerto Maldonado with Tambopata walks, Monkey Island, Sandoval Lake, and a canopy morning.

“I can recommend this tour and the stay at Amazon eco lodge. We had an amazing guide who spoke very good English. I slept very well in the lodge, food was good and we had time to relax in between that we could spend at the pool or by watching monkeys, birds or other wildlife from the hammock at the lodge area. WiFi at the common area available. It is a eco lodge, so all depending on solar energy. Electricity worked :) water was not hot but best temperature for humidity and high degrees outside .:) I liked the experience We saw many animals in our activities and learned a…”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 62 reviews · 2 days · from $295

All-inclusive 2-day guided jungle trip from Iquitos to Maniti Eco-Lodge on Monkey Island, with wildlife hikes, fishing, and tribe visits.

“We had an incredible time with the Maniti tour group. Our tour guide, Alfredo, was incredibly knowledgeable and a pleasure to be around. He had many insights about everything we visited and we got to see the Amazon rainforest through the eyes of a local because of him - he really felt more like a friend than a tour guide. Everything was very well planned out and easy to navigate. We left our suitcases at the pickup point, rode mototaxis to the port, then took a boat to the lodges. All the meals they made for us we're incredible, as well as all the hikes and wildlife we saw. Monkey…”

12.4-Day Inca Jungle Adventure, Mountain Biking, Rafting and Zipline

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 60 reviews · 4 days · from $378

4 days of biking, rafting, zipline, and rainforest hikes from Cusco to Machu Picchu, ending with guided citadel access.

“Really enjoyed the Adventure Hike, lots of pros with only a few cons, see below breakdown of the 4 days (I travelled early June 2024), some tips and a packing list of what to take. Day 1, Bike and Raft: Bike was great fun, very easy/beginner friendly as mostly downhill but get to pick up some speed while catching the views. Rafting was excellent with a few decent rapids. Accommodation was terrible, very basic shared hostel with only cold water shower (not ideal after rafting), food was average but didn't go hungry. Day 2, Hike: I'd class myself intermediate hiker and I found it pretty easy, there's a few hills…”
