Frequently asked questions about Iquitos tours (FAQs)

What is the best time to visit Iquitos?

The best time to visit Iquitos is during the dry season, which runs from June to November. During this time, rainfall decreases significantly, making it easier to explore the rainforest and travel along rivers and streams. Additionally, the dry season is a time when you can spot more wildlife, as they congregate around the few remaining bodies of water.

On the other hand, the rainy season, which runs from December to May, can make some roads impassable due to flooding and overflowing rivers and streams. However, during this time of year, the vegetation is more lush, and there is an abundance of fruits and flowers in the rainforest, which can be a unique and fascinating experience.

How many days is it recommended to stay in Iquitos?

The choice depends on your personal preferences, but if you’re looking for a more comprehensive experience, four- or five-day packages are recommended.

In Iquitos, there are many activities to enjoy, including jungle treks, boat trips on the Amazon River, visits to indigenous communities, fishing, bird and wildlife watching, and more.

What should I bring on a tour in Iquitos?

It’s recommended to wear comfortable, breathable clothing, appropriate footwear for walking in the jungle and on marshy terrain, insect repellent, sunscreen, personal medications, a reusable water bottle, and a small backpack to carry your belongings.

We also recommend (though it’s optional) bringing a camera or video camera to capture unforgettable moments of your experience.

Please note that tours may vary in terms of what to bring, so we recommend checking beforehand to obtain a complete list of what’s needed for your specific tour.

What clothes should I pack for Iquitos?

Comfortable, moisture-resistant shoes, lightweight, quick-drying, and breathable clothing (long-sleeved shirts and earth-toned pants), swimwear, and rain gear are recommended.

For a visit to Iquitos and the Amazon rainforest, comfortable and breathable clothing is recommended, preferably made of lightweight materials such as cotton or linen, which allow for ventilation and wick away sweat. This region is known for its hot and humid climate, so it’s important to pack cool and comfortable clothing.
