Tour leaving from Iquitos
Iquitos is one of Peruโs largest cities, you can only get there by plane or through the river since it doesnโt have a highway. Moving around the streets of Iquitos is almost impossible if you donโt have a scooter, this makes the tuk-tuk the king of all means of transportation in this place. This city is one of the best to explore around the Amazon River.
