Fodor's Expert Review Tahuayo Lodge

Iquitos, Loreto, Peru

This rustic eco-lodge owned by Amazonia Expeditions is an excellent base for experiencing the rainforest. Its thatched buildings connected by wooden walkways are perched between the Tahuayo River and a seasonally flooded forest, a short boat trip from the Reserva Comunal Tamshiyacu-Tahuayo. Some bungalows have private (cold-water) baths; all have electric (solar) lighting. A canopy exploration system includes a walkway, ziplines, and a platform (ACCT certified). The lodge is certified by the Rainforest Alliance and by Travel Lite.
