Peru to the amazon?

Question

me and my friend are going to lima, peru to visit her aunt for a couple weeks next summer. we were wondering about if it would be possible to visit the amazon also. how long would it take to travel there from lima? what would be the best transportation? would it be possible to go just as a day trip for the two of us? thank you!

Answer 1

Iquitos is one of the popular tourist places. You can not get there by road. Plane cost is approximately $90.00 US and takes about an hour.

Iquitos is at the head of the amazon river. Population is approx 400,000. You can get pretty cheap lodging there.

Nice place to visit. I built a house there. Me and my wife are in the photo in fromnt of the flag on the first internet link.

Answer 2

You have to take the plain for that.

You will love Iquitos. One day is not enough, maybe 2 or 3 will do it.

Answer 3

Tell your friend to ask her aunt if she knows a reliable travel agency that could provide you with an airline ticket and lodging. The trip will have to be at least for 5 days.

Answer 4

If you don't wanna expend too much money, you can go to huanuco, la merced o tingo maria, there is cheaper than Iquitos, and also beautiful cities
