Peruvian Amazon Holidays

Covering over half of Peru, this stunning area of the Amazon Rainforest grants visitors an immersive wildlife experience. The best part of the Amazon to visit, depends on whether you choose an Amazon River cruise holiday or a stay in a jungle lodge. River cruises depart from Iquitos in the northern Amazon, and the lodges are accessible from Puerto Maldonado in the south.

Puerto Maldonado is easily reached via direct flight from either Lima or Cusco and the highlight of this region is the Tambopata National Reserve, one of the most biologically diverse areas in the world. From your chosen lodge, discover this amazing environment with a range of activities and Amazon Rainforest tours such as boat trips, jungle hikes and canopy walkways.

From Iquitos, cruise deep into the rainforest on board a comfortable riverboat into the magnificent Pacaya Samiria National Reserve, also known as the mirror forest. Most boats follow a similar itinerary over 3-7 nights, exploring the highlights of this unique ecosystem. Spend your days taking guided boat excursions or hikes into the jungle and keep your eyes peeled for amazing wildlife such as pink river dolphins, anacondas, monkeys and toucans.
