Fodor's Expert Review Explorama Lodge

Iquitos, Loreto, Peru

At Explorama's original lodge, rooms are screened in and have private baths with running cold water and electric fans. Be aware that dividing walls do not reach the ceiling, so there is less privacy than at other lodges. The rusticity is offset by welcome amenities such as quaint thatched walkways, a hammock house, and a main lodge with Wi-Fi reception until 11 pm. Excursions include guided walks, boat tours, and visits to nearby villages and a local medical clinic supported by the company.

PROS

  • deep in the jungle
  • good guides
  • Wi-Fi in main lodge

CONS

  • no hot water
  • not much privacy in rooms
  • less wildlife than at some lodges
