Why the tours are more expensive comparing to other tour companies?

Most of the tour companies in Iquitos have their lodges located to 5km approx. from  the city and the programs they do have are basically to visit recue centers and villages that are by the rivershore.

We travel 180km in order to provide you the greatest possibilities to see animals in their natural habitat and no in cages. 

The operation cost for this kind of trip is more expensive.

That is why our tours' rate are higher than others.
