Chullachaqui Eco Lodge — Hotel in Iquitos

Where do i begin ? This is a trip of a lifetime. First of all, for being a solo traveler i was received with clear communication and expectations from Walter from the beginning. He was so helpful with getting me to and from the lodge, hotel, and airport smoothly. Once i arrived at the lodge i was greeted with warm welcomes from the staff. Caesar, our guide, was so informative and planned the day perfectly whether rain or sunshine. He was so knowledgeable about all of the nature out there. We had so many activities throughout each day and saw snakes, sloths, caiman, tarantulas, monkeys, frogs, and so much more. Trekking the jungle is so worth it and we did that many times. We also went piranha fishing and then ate them for dinner! The lodge is comfortable enough for being so deep in the jungle. It is totally worth it. I wish i can come back and bring my friends next time. This is a must do experience if traveling to Iquitos or Peru in general. I wish i had more days to stay and connect with the nature. We also visited an Amazonian village and learned about the different plants growing, what they do, and how the community interacts with the jungle. What a trip! I can’t say enough good things. A big thanks to all of the staff Manuel, Maria, Caesar, and Nery. Yall...

This tour is the best way to experience the true, authentic life on the Amazon River. Walter has crafted a tour that is thoughtful and takes care of everything, top to bottom. The Ecolodge is absolutely beautiful, homey, and comfortable (with nature so close by!). And Cesar is truly the greatest guide in the Amazon. You never what animals or plants or weather you will encounter but he’s ready to teach you about it all and how local people respond to everything. Hikes through the jungle at different times of day exposes you to how wildlife moves differently throughout the night and day. Boat rides and swims in the illustrious Amazon River. And even exposure to a local community of kind, welcoming people. If you can embrace getting wet and battling mosquitoes during hikes, then this is the kind of place you won’t want to leave. It was an escape into a different world: a world of exploration and meditation and natural rhythms. We will never forget the sounds and sights and feelings of peace we experienced on this tour. The cherry on top was the delicious food cooked for...
