About Iquitos

Iquitos is a city of 380,000 people (2017) in the Amazonas region of Peru. (Don't confuse it with the Department of Amazonas where Chachapoyas is located.) For travellers, Iquitos offers a vast selection of activities not found elsewhere in Peru, such as Amazon boat rides and great wildlife viewing. One way to see Peru is to visit the 3 areas — Coastal, Andes, and Amazon — and Iquitos is the best way to see the Amazon. Iquitos is also gateway to some of the top national parks and reserves for ecological conservation and wildlife viewing.
