Maniti Eco-Lodge - 5 Days

We’ll wake up early today so that we can watch the sunrise over the Amazon River, and then we’ll leave the lodge in our boat and go on an animal observation excursion, looking for all kinds of flora and fauna.

In the afternoon we’ll head out Piranha fishing, and to see if we can catch other species. Then we will go see the Victoria Regia, the largest freshwater aquatic plant in the world. After sunset, we’ll paddle out in our canoes to spot and catch caiman!

In the morning we’ll visit a local Amazon village, where we’ll have a fascinating insight into life in the Amazon, learning how people live their lives in the jungle. Later we’ll visit lagoons and tributaries close to the Maniti Lodge. Here, you can choose from a number of activities, including jungle hiking, canoe rides, fishing, plant education, animal observation or just relaxing with a nice cool swim in one of the lagoons or in the Amazon River itself.

After dark we’ll go on another nocturnal nature hike in search of the wildlife, that only comes out at night!

In the morning we will enjoy a jungle hike to the Palo Alto Tower. 

This unique attraction “Palo Alto Mirador” is a lookout point that has 3 different observation decks. From here, you will have a birds-eye view of the lowland Peruvian Amazon from 5, 10, and 15 meters above ground.

Throughout the day, we can explore the area that includes hiking trails, canoe rides in a jungle lake, fishing, or any other types of animal spotting at your request.

In the evening we will go on a nighttime nature walk to see what types of species can be seen (reptiles, spiders, monkeys).

We will then return to the Palo Alto Tower where we will have the opportunity to spend the night out in nature at the Palo Alto Viewpoint with excellent opportunities to observe various species of wildlife in their natural habitat. This is the perfect way to immerse yourself in The Amazon Rainforest!

Your final day begins with an early morning jungle hike where we’ll have the opportunity to see a vast number of monkeys, birds and other Amazonian creatures in their natural habitat. We will also see and learn about various types of Amazonian plants, many of which have medicinal properties and other uses.  

Then it will be time to leave Maniti Eco Lodge and return to Iquitos. On the way, we’ll stop at an indigenous jungle community where we’ll learn about the local customs and traditions and the history of the tribe. Arriving in Iquitos, we’ll take you to the airport or your hotel, and say our goodbyes. We hope you enjoyed your stay at the lodge.
