3 Days Of Fun In Iquitos, Peru: A Family Itinerary
Day 1:
Explore the city of Iquitos and embark on a journey to the Amazon Jungle
Morning: Local Markets and Plazas
Plazas are located nearly on every block in Peru where you go inside and explore around. There are also local markets to visit that have many greens and meats to buy. Some markets even contain unique meats such as monkeys, piranha, and caimans.
Afternoon: Amazon River, Creative Spotting
One of Peru's most incredible tourist attractions is the Amazon River. Later in the evening the family can book a 3 day guide in the Amazon River. Where they will first take a boat ride into the Jungle and stay in a tree house. Later that night the tour guide can take the family into the jungle to spot creatures such as sloths, snakes, tarantulas, leaf-cutter ants, monkeys, anacondas, and much more.
Day 2:
Go to Monkey Island and Swim with Dolphins
Morning: Monkey Island
After a Delicious breakfast the family will travel by boat to Monkey Island where there are monkeys galore. The family can spend most of the morning feeding the monkeys and swinging them off their arms. The monkeys are very friendly and love to jungle from person to person
Afternoon: Swim with Dolphins
After a fun day of monkey play on their way back to their tree House they can take a spit stop in the Amazon River where you can spot and swim with dolphins. These dolphins are not any ordinary dolphins that swim in the ocean, these dolphins are pink and might not look exactly how you would picture them.
Day 3:
Go piranha fishing and Gator Island
Morning: Piranha Fishing
The tour Guides can take the family into the river to fish for piranha with handmade fishing poles. The pole is a stick with a hook and line attached. They simply just put a piece of meat on the hook and put it into the water until they feel a tug and whip the pole out as fast as possible.
Afternoon: Gator Island
After a Tasty Piranha lunch they can head on over to Gator island where you can feed gators and hold snakes. There are also fish ponds where you can feed find and birds to feed too.
