Iquitos: 3 Tage Amazonas! Exklusives Dschungel-Abenteuer Heliconia Lodge

Anreise per Speedboot von Iquitos mit Zwischenstop " Monkey Island" einem Reservat für heimische Affen. Die Lodge hat sehr große, saubere Zimmer. Aufenthalts/Speisebereich anheimelnd. Papagei Pedro ist meistens dabei. Das Essen ist einfach und sagenhaft gut. Es gibt immer frische Obstsäfte. Pedro begleitet auf der Gitarre mit seinen Liedern stimmungsvoll, hat tolle Lieder und eine wirklich gute Stimme. Die Touren mit den Guides sind ein Erlebnis der besonderen Art. Die Sachkenntnis z.B.von Guide Artemir ist topp. Man verlässt die Lodge sehr wehmütig, die Belegschaft hat man durch ihre liebenswerte Art ins Herz geschlossen.

00 die: Lage, freundliches Personal, Essen, Touren waren alle super. Ich war erstaunt, als unser Führer pfiff und zwei rosa Delfine kamen. Auch der Besuch in der Rumbrennerei hat viel Spaß gemacht. Die Bootsfahrt und von der Lodge ist eine Reise wert! Das Einzige ist, dass es bei Regen nicht viel zu tun gibt. Über die gesamte Reise war alles A's. Vielen Dank für die schöne Zeit.

Die Lage war fabelhaft. Die Guides waren wunderbar. Die Ausflüge waren lustig und unterhaltsam. Das Personal kümmerte sich um jeden Bedarf.

Tolle Zeit im Amazonas! Die Lodge war sauber und komfortabel, das Personal war unglaublich und unser Guide Victor war unglaublich! ! Kann es sehr empfehlen - die Schönheit des Amazonas ist unantastbar

Heliconia lodge in Amazon jungle is a great place to visit. Rooms are simple, but very good. They only have fans because the power comes from Solar. The food is simple but good. They serve some local jungle cuisines daily to give a taste of what locals eat. We had great time exploring the jungle with Manual, a very experienced guide. His ability to spot birds and sloths is simply amazing. We had the opportunity to see grey and pink dolphins, so many bird types and various herbal plants. The visit to the local tribe was a great experience as well. We highly recommend that you visit this lodge.

This trip was amazing - so much fun! Our guide, Manuel, was awesome. He was full of information, very funny, and we loved every outing. Our boat driver, Kenny, was also great and had quite the eye for spotting sloths up in the trees! The food was great, as was all the support staff. The pace of activities was perfect with enough downtime to enjoy the pool or just watch the world go by overlooking the Amazon. It greatly exceeded every expectation and was the highlight of the entire trip all across Peru. We did have some concerns going into it that all proved to be unfounded. The website says there will only be certain hours with power, but power and strong WiFi were available 24/7. Plenty of drinking water, with water coolers all around for re-filling bottles. Website also said 10 kg of luggage max, which was a concern as we had 2 week’s worth of stuff, including warm clothes for the Andes. We were able to leave a couple bags at our hotel in Iquitos, but it really wasn’t that big of deal. You can bring a backpack with you to fit under the boat seat, and your other luggage went in a different boat. Nothing got weighed or anything like that - I’d say just be reasonable and don’t bring too much. Website also says to wear long pants and long sleeves, which we did the first day and nearly burned up in the heat, while the guides were all wearing t-shirts. The rest of the trip, we just wore shorts and t-shirts along with some bug spray, and we were fine. We never really even saw mosquitos or had any problems with bugs - maybe just the bug spray working. There are some reeds along the jungle walk that can slice bare skin, but we were just careful to avoid - no issues with shorts and t-shirts, but one should probably have something long just in case. So again, all our concerns ended up being non-issues. Everything was great, well organized, and we had a wonderful time. It was like being at camp - you meet other guests, gather for meals in the dining hall, etc. The accommodations are nice and comfortable. With the screens and the ceiling fan, we all slept great (we were awoken early one morning by a monkey fight just outside the back screened porch, but that’s the jungle for you!). Enjoy - you will not be disappointed.

Wonderful experience tour was amazing the food and the excursions during the days were excellent .Amazing

What a trip. There is wifi, food is amazing, staff are friendly and you'll see things that you only see on national geographic. The amount of different species you get to see of spiders, plants, birds and animals... Mind blowing. I hate the heat and insects but it was honestly worth it. Just the stars at night is worth the trip. It'll definitely make you love your life more when you return home. Our group was very lucky, we saw pink and grey dolphins, snakes, frogs, anacondas, sloths, and much more.
