  Iquitos
 

Iquitos (106 m.a.s.l.) is the most tropical city in Perú, it is located in the heart of the jungle in Peru; and considered the gateway to the mysterious Amazon because of its privileged location.  If you arrive by air, you will appreciate and enjoy the astounding limitless expanse of unexplored green areas of the Amazon that appear in front our eyes. Iquitos has a lot of vegetation and a variety of exotic animals. The Amazon river (approx. 2 kilometers wide) is near to the city and its bordering areas are home to many native ethnic groups. In the past, the population of this city were fishermen and hunters like Toras, Yaguas, Cocamas, Iquitos, Huitotos, Orejones, and others. You can find natural and exotic accommodation that permit us to share a good time with nature.
