Wear whatever is comfortable. It is recommended to have a sturdy pair of broken-in trail shoes, boots, or sneakers. It is preferable to dress in layers and wear clothing that will wick away perspiration and keep you dry and comfortable

      May... read more had collected us from the airport, organised our first night in Iquitos and gave us a small tour around the markets and during the trip he had organised great meals everyday.

    •   My boyfriend and I booked a 3day long jungle exploration experience with May and his team. It was an impactful, very well organized trip that we will remember for a... read more long tiime. May went out of his way to take care of everything, from logistics to planning diverse activities. May did his best to share his vast knowledge of jungle and wildlife as well as his passion for the topic. Tours are individual and customized - we were always presented with options on how to spend our time in the jungle, depending on our interests and preferences. May puts a lot of thought and energy into planning out the activities in tiniest details. His business is the exact opposite of  massive, commercial tourism - he organizes individual tours in the spririt of sustainability and respect for local communities. The lodge we stayed in was minimalistic, yet eco-friendly and had everything one needs. We were also served delicious, typical food made out of fresh and local ingredients. During the tour May also gave us a lot of insight into the life of local communities. We were also impressed with the social work he's doing to educate and create opportunities for local inhabitants.
      All in all, we definitely recommend booking a tour with May if you're looking for an authentic, tailor-made jungle experience, prepared with care, passion and respect!

    •   For the arrival, the lodge staff and our tour guide were very dutiful. We missed our flight from Lima to Iquitos and let the lodge know via emails literally at... read more the last minute. However, they still picked us up at 5 am from the airport without letting us suffer more. The lodge was obviously not as pleasant as those in urban city. But we can tell that they have tried their best to accommodate us. The food was good.

      FIRST DAY:
      - We saw pink dolphins! Very girly pink. Romantic creatures.
      - Swing on the Amazon river~
      - Gorgeous white and pink flowers make people from freezing North Hemisphere very happy
      - Squirrel monkeys
      - Spectacular rainbows!! Hugest I have ever seen

      SECOND DAY:
      Jungle track
      - Tree swing (on land this time, huge!)
      - Weird plant we have never seen, unique to the rainforests
      - The tour guide showed us how to get drinkable water from the trunk
      - We made fans out of the wood in the rainforest. 100% from the jungle! No manufacture
      - We eat “coconut”, actually worms, alive. Indeed, quite tasty.
      - Lots of Mosquitos, prepare lots of effective repellents
      - We went to fish the Piranha from the Amazon river, and ate them for dinner! Quite good.
      - At night, we went out to see the crocodiles. Millions of fireflies on the river and millions of stars in the sky. Good to be with the significant other~
      - Baby crocodiles and big ones (60 centimeters long)

      THIRD DAY:
      - Play with monkeys by using fruits!
      - They didn’t fear people very much, some of which stand on our heads or sit on our arms…
      - Searched for Macao birds. They are yellow and blue. Quite pretty
      - Hug Sloth and take pictures in a local family
      - Catch spiders (tarantula)

      FOURTH DAY:
      - Canoeing in the Amazon river. Lots of fun!

      Our tour guide was born in the jungle, and he bears great passion for his village/community. We were impressed by his stories and his ambitions. He prepared gifts for kids aged 1 to 10 every Christmas because he had wished for some gifts when he was young but he never got any. He wanted to start his own tour guide business, not because he wants to make more money, but because he wants to provide job opportunities for his villagers and people in the nearby villages. He is enthusiastic about the education of the next generation, in which he wants every kid in the jungle to know about climate change. Also, he bears great love for the jungle. Even though he has the ability to raise his kids in a city in which they may have more educational resources and better living conditions, he still plans to raise his kids half time in the city, half time in the jungle so that the next generation will not forget where they belong. We are very impressed by his kind move, and he is a funny, kind, and cool guy!

    •   I booked a one day excursion after checking out the website of Allpayacu Adventures. May, who was our primary contact, responded incredibly quickly to my email and gave me several... read more options and opportunities to ensure we had the experience we were looking for.

      A few days before arrival May got in touch with us and not only met us at the airport the day before our tour, but he arranged transport and assisted to find our accommodation. We were so excited as he was willing to show us around the market and the town that afternoon and left us with all the information to meet out tour guide the next day.

      The tour was amazing - our guide was local, flexible and knowledgeable. He let us help to guide the tour to see as much wildlife as possible. We didn't have much time so we couldn't go too far, but visiting the animals reserves and stopping sever times to search and see animals in the wild was perfect.

      I cant recommend this tour operator enough. If you're looking for the best experience in a unique place like Iquitos, this is your best bet!
