- nicholashX2235OF00A great way to tour the Amazon JungleI had the most incredible time on the 2 day jungle tour with Maniti Lodge! The lodging was comfortable, the food was fresh and delicious, the staff were welcoming and our guide Linder was super knowledgeable. He took us on multiple jungle hikes to see giant ceiba trees, monkeys, tarantulas, snakes, frogs, birds, sloths and many more cool animals. We stopped at an animal rescue center which gave us the opportunity to play with and hold tons of exotic animals from the jungle. We got to go swimming in the Amazon, piranha fishing and we visited a local indigenous tribe to see their way of life. For those who are interested you can even do Ayahuasca with Shamans there. Overall a great experience and I can't recommend it enough.
- Y3252YIleep00Great tourAbsolutely great tour. Simple rustic cabins for tour members. Bring a small portable fan!!!! We have the most wonderful guide Rodrigo Mesia Coral, who was not only so friendly and knowledgeable but also a renowned bird expert. If possible, ask for him when you are making reservations.
- P3136NRlorenaa00Fun way to explore the Amazon with my family1Did the 3 day-Maniti Eco Lodge tour. It was a wonderful experience. Our guide Rene was very knowledgeable and friendly. I traveled in mid June with my family. My kids ages 11, 13 and 15 years old also enjoyed the excursion. The specially the pirahna fishing and visiting monkey island. The guide was very accomodating to our family and would modify to what the kids enjoyed more. Overall I would recommend this company great service and awesome experience!
- manishk50500Wonderful ExperienceWe spent 3D/2N at the MANITI Lodge. This activity is not for the faint hearted. It is hot and humid and tiring but what else is to be expected in the Amazon jungle. Our guide Rodrigo was amazing, always punctual regarding the activities, knows the jungle well, always willing to answer questions, trying to show you as much as he can and always pleasant while doing so. The food is good but got kind of repetitive. All the activities were amazing including the jungle walks, piranha fishing and swimming in the river. The trip to monkey island and the zoo was nice too. However the visit to the local tribe is a waste of time. 5 mins of a put on fake show and then they start pestering you to buy crap. Overall a wonderful experience thanks to Ridrigo’s efforts and the fact that we had a nice group that became friends very quickly and it added to the overall fun factor.
- Thomas H00Brilliant way to visit the Peruvian AmazonOur 4-day stay in the eco-lodge was an amazing experience! Our guide Edwin really made the tour for us. He knew so much about the plants, trees and local way of life, and most importantly you could tell that he was really passionate about sharing his knowledge with us. Particularly memorable was a dawn dolphin-spotting trip. It was on a long jungle hike, though, that Edwin’s expertise really came into its own - he seemed to have an incredible ability to spot even the smallest species, and knew everything there was to know about them. The food and accommodation were both excellent, and the staff were very friendly, constantly inviting us to take more food or asking if we needed anything. Luxuries like air-con and 24-hour electricity will of course not be found, but they make this very clear on their website, and it was nice to disconnect for a bit. Private bathrooms, showers and 3 hours of electricity every day felt like enough luxury for us. Everything seemed very well organised, arranging pick-ups and drop-offs from our hotel in Iquitos without a hitch. During the trip, there was lots of flexibility in the itinerary, with Edwin very willing to adapt to what we wanted to do. Our safety was also clearly something they cared about - when we had crossed to the opposite side of the Amazon and a sudden heavy storm broke out, Edwin made sure a bigger, more stable boat with a roof was brought to us to take us back to camp - a more disreputable firm may have run the risk of taking us in the small, uncovered boat we had been using in the calmer weather. Overall a really great trip, organised by people who really care.
- evanbbball00Well organised, safe, and done by expertsWe did the 4 day trip at the eco-lodge and it was fantastic from start to finish. The accommodation was great, the food fantastic, and everyone at the camp was very friendly. Our guide, Edwin, was incredibly knowledgable, and was able to spot all sorts of insects and frogs in the jungle, and he even knew how to get the pink river dolphins out to play. He definitely made the trip for us. Some other highlights included swimming in the Amazon and visiting the local village. 10/10 would recommend if you want to experience the Amazon.
- roelofvanderwalt00Great! Just a great time in the jungleIf you're not used to any jungle or tropical environment or have no sense of adventure; this place will probably test your limits. If you're easily put off by something out of your comfort zone, or you're going to complain about the natural environment, or that your expectations are a 4-5 star resort that's going to bend over backwards for your every request then stay at home. But if your keen on being the opposite of the person I mentioned above then all of your senses will be tingled by the Peruvian Amazon. The last day of the tour we managed to see a few interesting birds and quite a number of iguanas. As we were about to make our way back for lunch it started raining and it really came down but it changed the entire scene of the river. It almost continued to rainthe entire day which meant we didn't do much else but the rain certainly got rid of the heat and the mosquitoes which meant an afternoon spent laying down with a good book even better. During the time of the tour our guide René made sure we had plenty of opportunities to see the wildlife, which he insisted on saying he can't promise we will see everything as it's wildlife. Which I understood well and told him 'I know you can't make the animals come to us, it's stupidity to think like that'. Regardless of this I saw plenty of different spieces for the tiny pocket of the Amazon. All in all a great trip into an relatively unknown world to me.
- Laurianne0432003 days 2 nights in the AmazonIt was amazing from the begin to the end! The food was delicious. We had a private guy for my brother and I. We did piranha fishing, monkey island, swim and mud bath in the Amazon, visit an authentic village, day and night tour in the Amazon. It felt like living a movie. We did visit as well a village in the Amazon with locals. We had the best experience possible. Our guide was amazing
- hansolofblom00The best part of my visit to PeruAn interesting experience. The guide Edvin was very competent and willingly shared his knowledge of the jungle. The highlight was the visit to the Monkey Island.
- 516mikaelaa00Relaxing but exciting quick adventure!Segundo was the best guide! He took great care of us, making sure we felt welcomed, safe and comfortable. All of the experiences were amazing and we had downtime as well to relax. We had a limited amount of time and still felt like we got to see and do a lot of cool things!
- Raquel1234567892022100Lovely Amazon experienceRodrigo was a very knowledgeable guide! The food was excellent. I would recommend for outdoorsy families. The accommodations are very basic but the camp is right in the heart of the jungle - very beautiful!
- Antonio V00The boat ride to the ecolodge was pleasant and felt safe in spite of the swift current of the world's largest river.The whole process was easy and explanations/expectations were thorough. Everything went smoothly. The guide was knowledgeable, helpful and incredibly patient with some requests that seemed unreasonable. We were taken care of from beginning to end.
- Voyager-Indra00One of a kind experienceThe 3 days went by in a breeze with Rodrigo as our guide who took good care of us & kept us busy with jungle hikes (morning & evening ), fishing . Spotting pink dolphins & different wildlife & vegetation. His knowledge is exceptional. It would be remiss if me to not mention Kocho (hope I spelled right; who showed us roof thatching art & building stable wooden bridges on the spot when it was water logged) and the staff for bringing healthy & delicious food to the table each time. Overall a very surreal experience & absolutely recommended. Note: we felt the communication could be much better but please keep in mind that is handled from Florida and does not have any impact on the actual experience.
- U7215DHben00Interesting tour. Beautiful sights. Do not do the ayahuasca ceremony with Maniti.Our time in the forest was pretty enjoyable. The lodge is a wonderful spot to turn your phone off and be in a cool natural landscape. The hikes through the jungle were fascinating - Our guide was very knowledgable about the area, answering questions attentively. However, I feel inclined to mention - I would not recommend opting in to the offered ayahuasca experience. It is, at best, sloppy and, at worst, dangerous. They dismissed the need for a diet, offering sugary foods until mere hours before the ceremony. Told us that our guide would be there to translate since the shaman didn't speak english, but he ended up leaving the room within 20 minutes. They "ended" the ceremony after 2.5 hours, before anyone had vomited, and the shaman left. My journey took a dramatic upwards turn in intensity once I returned to my room. This included the expected vomiting, and an intense experiential journey. Thankfully I was with my partner. Having processed my experiences with a therapist who has an intimate relationship with this medicine, ceremony and region of the world, I can pretty confidently say that Maniti's offering of ayahausca isn't great. Stick with the nature hike aspects, and if you are interested in ayahausca, make sure to seek out a facilitator that you trust and is prioritizing safety from beginning to end. It feels like they used the ceremony as an easy way to make more money - inadequately fielding questions prior, offering minimal mid-journey support, and absolutely 0 aftercare support.
- Relax29704700Rodrigo was greatRodrigo our guide was absolutely amazing. He took us on a tour of the jungle covering 3 days, which included day hikes, night hikes, fishing, camping, nature viewing and swimming in the Amazon. Everything was organised extremely well and went perfectly. There was plenty of time to chill out and relax as well. Rodrigo’s knowledge of the Amazon was exceptional and I definitely recommend this tour to others.

Best trip ever
Tour exceeded my expectations. Guide Rodrigo was knowledgeable, fun, professional.
As a solo female traveller I felt very safe and comfortable in his presence.
Extremely knowledgeable with degrees in Biology, ornithology and herpetology you will learn so much about the history, culture and way of life in the Jungle.
Already planning my next trip there!
The lodge is basic, but it’s all you need as you’ll be too busy exploring to to just chill.
Food was amazing and I really pigged out on the delicious fruits.
Best to bring a battery operated night light, flashlights and flashlight headband, mosquito face cover, loose clothing so the mosquitoes don’t bite through…
People ask what my highlight was, basically every moment.
Don’t book through your own country, your tours will be basic.
Book through Maniti and you will get to do things beyond what others can offer.
Ask for Rodrigo, he was the reason my tour was 20 out of 10 stars

If you don't know, this country has just suffered through 1.5 years of no visitors due to Covid. This was devastating to Peruvian businesses in a country where 80% of Peru's economy depends on tourism. Due to this, many places were running on skeleton crews to maintain bare minimum upkeep or just simply left vacant like Maniti Lodge was, with a single guard left on duty for security. These people have been in survival mode up until the country reopened recently. Many businesses are still trying to get up to speed. Know this before you read or leave any reviews on Peruvian businesses.
My experience.... I stayed for 8 days/ 7 Nights, the longest package stay offered on the website. The facilities at the Maniti Jungle Lodge are extremely basic; no Hilton accommodations here. However, the "village" is beautiful. The grounds are kept up nicely and have all the necessary amenities one needs: a personal quarters with bed and bathroom, a dining hall, a bar or gathering area in the evenings which is still coming together, a hammock house which I found was the only place to cool off during the middle of the day, and 3 meals a day which were cooked by one of the best cooks in the Amazon; she was amazing! Room cleaning and bed making was done daily if requested. Laundering was done by request for a nominal fee. This could take a couple days if a lack of sun to dry clothes. Power is only available from 6-9 pm daily, no other time. Like I said, very simple. I more than pleased with the accommodations.
The best thing about Maniti was the jungle tours. Most tours traveled into the local jungle within a short distance of camp. There were daytime, afternoon, evening, and night time excursions. All offered a glimpse at the natural beauty of the region. Longer stays get to travel further by either boat or longer trek into the swamps, where an overnight camp is setup, or into blackwater lagoons that is rich in wildlife. I saw pink river dolphins, an ocelot, river otters, many monkeys, snakes, etc.... I also toured multiple Amazon communities and got to interact with some of the most fun loving people you will ever meet. I tried local foods and drinks; I did it all. I was fortunate to have what I considered to be the best guide ever, Segundo. He knew everything about cultures, plants and fauna, animals and wildlife, and about the history of the region. I was blown away by his knowledge and expertise. Know that the guides are more than willing to discuss options as to what type of excursion you go on.
I did purchase extras such as 3 Ayahuasca ceremonies and a tour of Iquitos. Know that this is a tour guide outfitter and not an Ayahuasca retreat. The Ayahuasca is offered as an extra item but is not what Maniti specializes in. If you want a retreat that specializes in Ayahuasca, I would suggest you go elsewhere. There were a few other people that I spoke to that were more than satisfied with their experience but I was not. My first ceremony was fine. The second one was a bit of a letdown, and the third was regrettable. That's the only thing I didn't like. I took a tour of Iquitos with a local guide who was one of the most terrific people I met in Iquitos. The city is very 3rd world but has loads of charm. We even made a trip out to a Maniti rescue park which was a great joy of the trip.
If you keep your American expectations at home and come with an open mind to learning, you will have the time of your life. It is hot, so have clothing that is breathable and whisks away sweat easily. Have pants, long socks and a sturdy shoe for jungle hikes; you don't want any bugs getting into your pants. Remember to bring some cash for small purchases in the villages as well as tipping, which I did regularly. Enjoy this place, you won't regret coming.
