Join this tour to discover the customs and traditions of the indigenous Amazonian communities by boat from Iquitos. You'll sail on the Amazon and Itaya rivers and learn about their flora and fauna.
Highlights
The group will meet at the pier in Iquitos to board a traditional boat visiting the indigenous communities. The journey along the Itaya River offers incredible views of the surrounding nature and insights into the jungle landscape characteristic of this region. After reaching the confluence of the Amazon and Itaya Rivers, we will navigate down the Nanay River to visit the Bora and Kukama communities. Here, we'll engage with tribe members to learn about their customs and traditions.
Continuing our journey, we will travel along the shore of the Padre Cocha community, where we can stop at the Pilpintuwasi butterfly farm to observe various butterflies and exotic animals. The tour concludes after 5 hours as we return to the pier in Iquitos.
