Loreto · Peruvian Amazon

Where the wild still belongs to the wild.

An intimate rainforest lodge two hours from Iquitos, set among the rivers and flooded forests of Loreto. Quiet luxury, extraordinary wildlife, and a deep commitment to conservation and the communities who call the Amazon home.

The Lodge

A small refuge in a vast wilderness — built lightly, lived in deeply.

Paradise Wildlife Adventures sits deep in the rainforest of Loreto, where the rhythms of the day are set by birdsong at dawn and the chorus of the forest at dusk. We keep the lodge intentionally small so that every guest experiences the Amazon as it should be felt: unhurried, immersive, and genuinely wild.

At the heart of Paradise is Orlando, the local guide who helps run the lodge. Born in the Peruvian Amazon and raised in the jungle, he has spent his whole life among its wildlife — and his knowledge of the forest and its fauna runs deeper than any guidebook. Guiding alongside him is what turns a trip here into something unforgettable.

A Day at Paradise

Two rivers, two trails, every meal taken care of.

There's no rigid schedule — only a gentle rhythm. Each day blends two to three guided boat excursions with up to two jungle hikes, shaped around your interests and the season with your private guide. All you decide is how deep to go.

Dawn

Sunrise on the Water

Slip out before the heat for pink dolphins, waking birdlife, and mist rising off the river.

A guided hike through the jungle — medicinal plants, monkeys, and the canopy overhead.

A second boat outing or quiet paddle through flooded forest after lunch and a siesta.

Conservation & Education

A lodge with a purpose.

Tourism done right protects what it celebrates. A portion of every stay supports the work below — and guests leave knowing the rainforest more intimately than when they arrived.

Protecting Habitat

We're working to rescue tortoises, caiman, and other wild animals from the local food market and return them to the native habitat where they belong.

Local Livelihoods

We employ and train guides, cooks and staff from nearby communities, keeping tourism's benefits local.

Guest Education

Every excursion is a lesson in the ecology of the Amazon — guests leave as advocates for the forest.

Getting Here

The journey is part of the adventure.

Reaching Paradise is wonderfully simple — we handle every step from the moment you land in Iquitos.

Fly to Iquitos

Direct flights from Lima reach Iquitos in about 1.5 hours.

We Meet You

Our team greets you at the airport — no logistics to manage.

Road & River

A scenic transfer by road and boat brings you into the heart of the forest.

Arrive at Paradise

Roughly two hours later, the lodge — and the wild — welcome you.

Good to know: We work around your flight schedule — just let us know your arrival details and we'll arrange your transport from the Iquitos airport to the lodge.
