10 Tours in Loreto Region That You Shouldn't Miss

January 24, 2022 Leida Jutras

Loreto (Spanish pronunciation: [loˈɾeto]) is Peru's northernmost region. Covering almost one-third of Peru's territory, Loreto is by far the nation's largest region; it is also one of the most sparsely populated regions due to its remote location in the Amazon Rainforest. Its capital is Iquitos.

In November 2019 I had a tour with Julio, and now I can say that it was my best sightseeing tour in the year. Julio is a nice guide/buddy, and this tour is very well organized. Julio picked me up by calling me to my room at the hotel front desk exactly at 9:00AM. During the tour we saw many places of Lima, including the local market, the historic center, Parque de la Muralla and Barranco District. Julio knows every aspect of Lima transportation system, so we were able to move between important places quickly and without traffic jams. The tour took 4 hours, and they were action-packed hours. You won't be able to finish early and in fact you will be a little exhausted after the tour. I recommend that you take this particular sightseeing tour and another tour outside of Lima. While this is a good tour, there is a lot places you need to see outside of Lima in Peru.

The adventure was simple style camping with nice hammocks and mosquito nets. The cook prepared home made meals the whole time! The reserve itself was beautiful and our guide, Adriano, was an excellent outdoorsman. Both he and the cook, Llersino, could make all sorts of animal calls and were so, so good at spotting all of the jungle creatures!! Very, very good guide and great trip all around ❤️

I came here in July 2019 travelling alone around Peru. I wanted to experience the Amazon jungle but was on a reasonably tight time schedule (3 weeks) so couldn't stay for too long. I found the experience to be one of the highlights of my trip and met some great people too. I actually ended up staying for 2 nights/3 days which I would recommend as 1 night simply isn't enough. I found the experience to be authentic and our tour guide was really knowledgeable about the forest and the animals there. The whole thing feels flexible which suited me, with the guide offering us a range of activities which we could do during the mornings and afternoons. We got to complete jungle treks, swim in the river with dolphins, visit local animal sanctuary's and even visit some local tribes. I would definitely recommend this for anyone travelling to Peru who wants to see the rainforest but who might not necessarily have the time/funds to complete a longer expedition. I am a 25 year old male.

The tickets we booked were non-refundable. Because of the Covid-19 pandemic we had to cancel our June 2020 trip and excursion with them. Upon our request, they offered a full refund immediately, without question. Very much appreciated. We look forward to travel via them in the future.

We really had a real jungle experience: we saw many kind of animals: monkeys, tarantulas, caiman, papagayos, perezosos, all kind of birds... we fished piranhas and many other fishes that we later cooked in the capm they setup in the middle of the jungle where we slept in hamacas, listening to all sounds from the insects and birds... really increible experience!!... also what a moment, being in the boat at dark night looking for caimans below and incredible sky full of stars :-) Walter, Juan, Enrique and the rest of the lovely people from NuevaJerusalemare really experienced with the jungle (actually most of them live in the jungle with their families), so you always feel safe and you also learn a lot from them... If you are looking for a real life experience in the jungle, far from tour operators this is your place. By the way, if they don't answer your email for days, it's because they all are in the jungle and as you can imagine no internet in the jungle :-)

An excellent way to visit and explore the Amazon rainforest in a safe and secure setting. The lodge gave you a great feel to how the locals live. All beds have mosquito nets, rooms have all your basic amenities such as wardrobes, toilet, shower and balcony. The showers are cold but you’ll appreciate that in the humid environment! The food provided by the lodge was fantastic. It’s all sourced locally and is very healthy. We ate different kinds of fish with fresh vegetables such as plantain. The tours were structured very well to allow you enough free time to relax after a long day exploring! We saw pink & grey river dolphins, sloths, an anaconda, many kinds of monkeys, peiche fish and many more. We fished for piranha and cooked them for dinner. Overall if you’re a nature fan and don’t mind living without an internet connection for a few days this tour is definitely for you! Our guide Alejandro was brilliant.

This trip was easily my best experience during our visit to the Peruvian Amazon. The location of the eco-lodges is absolutely stunning, being both completely surrounded by rainforest and waterways. There is even a small and isolated village nearby where you can acquaint yourself with some of the locals. If you decide to visit the village, I recommend you try some of the locally made liquors and that you stock up for the duration of your stay. Our guide, who went by Edwin, was a wonderful person to experience the trip with. He made sure that we were well taken care of and his knowledge of the jungle and its inhabitants was extensive, to put it lightly. The rest of the staff we got acquainted with were all super friendly and always made us feel welcome. Every excursion was a trip to remember. At no point were any of us bored with the itinerary we were provided with. I do however have to point out that the included activities are not for the faint of heart, as we were constantly exposed to dangerous flora and fauna. To us however, this was what made our trips into the jungle so authentic and profound. The eco-lodges are simple, but provide you with electricity, cold showers (which is all you'll want due to the extreme heat) and shelter from mosquitoes. There is a large main hall where people get their water from, as well as where large groups gather to eat, socialize and generally have a good time. However, there is no wifi anywhere. So if that matters to you, now you know. The food was delicious. They even provided my brother with vegetarian dishes to accommodate his diet. Also, if you go fishing for piranhas they'll cook one that you've caught for you to try. Summarized; For anyone looking to experience the Amazon Rainforest at its most authentic, this is the way to do it. Though you'll have to decide for yourself if you or anyone coming with you can cope with the dangers inherent to such an expedition.
