In this carefully protected area there are 85 lakes, 250 species of fish, 132 mammals species, 150 reptile species, and 449 bird species. The Reserve is the home of the largest variety of Flora in Peru among which 22 species of orchids. You can find the grey and pink river dolphins, Amazonian manatees , the black and spectacled caiman , giant South American river turtle , saddleback tamarin and many monkeys including the spider, capuchin, and squirrel species.

Why not also go to Iquitos. While sailing down the Amazon River, you will be able to appreciate the varied and beautiful landscapes along the river. Visit a sugar cane rum still, enjoy visits to river archipelagos, find Victoria water lilies, indigenous villages, jungle hikes in search of wildlife, piranha fishing excursions, night canoe rides in search of Caimans. A great combination of rainforest tribes culture and the mighty wilderness that makes this brown and mud clouded river ecosystem mysterious and wonderful.
