My name is Gerlo Diaz Rios. I am from the jungle in Iquitos, Peru. This is where the amazon river is born. I was born really far away from the city, in the actual jungle.I decided to learn English by myself and have practiced it for many years.I currently live in Iquitos.So if you want day trips in and around Iquitos, I am the man for you.There are many beautiful things to see in Iquitos, such as Plaza de Armas, Amazon Rescue Center, the Butterfly farm, the Zoo, Tapiche Reserve, the museum, the Cathedral, and so much more. One highlight of iquitos is the Belen area.It is sometimes referred to as the  “Venice of Latin America” because the houses are build on stilts or are floating.When the river rises, the floating homes rise with the waters.It is an area that is very interesting but should be visited only with a local guide.

Also, I have almost 20 years working as jungle guide for different tourist companies, including my own lodge in the heart of jungle.I have a lot of experience in camping, survival training, long hikes into the jungle, and full adventure. If you want a jungle adventure, I am so ready to  give you the best experience with us at the Iguana Lodge & Camp.We can build a custom vacation for your family based on the time you wish to be in the jungle, the activities you wish to do, and the food items you can / cannot eat.Each of our bungalows can accomodate 1 - 4 people and each has a private bathroom.Your party will be assigned your own guide so you can do whichever activities you want to do.The lodge is all inclusive.We provide home cooked, nourishing, and delicious breakfast, lunch, and dinner each day. At the lodge, you can visit the Matses Indian tribe, hike, fish, canoe, boat, view a vast amount of wildlife, see the stars, or just relax.

If you need any information about day trips or longer journies into the jungle, please contact me.By doing so, you would have an amazing time while helping us to save our natural jungle culture. 

Thank you. We are anxious for you to visit.
