| Jungle Cabin Retreat Llanchama, Beyond the End of the Road |
| Amazon Cruise#2: Two days $125 |
| Makes the perfect deal for backpackers, or travelers with only a few days to stay in Iquitos and want an Amazon rainforest experience. Visit our house overlooking a beautiful cocha near the Nanay River. It is an authentic Amazon experience, living like the ribereños, sleeping on mats or in hammocks under mosquito nets, cooking over a charcoal fire, bathing in a cool spring. Llanchama has no electricity so bring a couple of flashlights and extra batteries. |
| Llanchama is beyond the end of the road and requires a 30-45 minute hike through the jungle. We can leave Iquitos and be fishing two hours later. The river and cocha are great for canoeing and fishing. If you want to fish, bring your own favorite essential fishing gear, or arrange to rent gear from Dawn on the Amazon. |
| Bird watchers, hikers and nature lovers will like the proximity to Allpahuayo-Mishana National Reserve. |

| Allow me to introduce you to the fish I am most passionate for, peacock bass, the fiercest fighting fresh water fish. Peacock bass have straightened my hooks, destroyed my lures, broke my line, snaps, swivels, and poles, ripped the gears out of my reels, towed me and my canoe into the jungle, and escaped in every imaginable way. |
| Peacock Bass Fishing |
| If you like a challenge, want to test your skills, learn some new tricks, and have a fishing adventure, I recommend peacock bass fishing with Dawn on the Amazon. Four days is the minimum number of days for an effective fishing trip. Add another day or two to explore new fishing opportunities, where fish may never have seen a lure. |

| The reserve is home to and protects, nearly all the species native to low lying jungle that are threatened with extinction, including the spider monkey, giant otter, manatee, and harpy eagle. The number of lakes, creeks, and swamps, the stands of unique untouched forest, and the rich wildlife make the reserve an attractive destination for sport fishing, bird watching, tourism, scientific expeditions and adventure travelers. On one of our expeditions we explored to the center of the reserve and never saw another tourist. This reserve is twice the size of Yellowstone National Park in the USA. Adding another day or two can make an even better adventure. |

| jungle, canopy platforms, pastures mineral licks, and white sand forest. The peak of the breeding season is considered to be from November through February, making these four months the best time to bird near Iquitos, Peru. It is a nice coincidence that in the Northern Hemisphere, November to February is the coldest and darkest time period. I am inviting you to take a break from the freezing temperatures, and the gray days, to enjoy a warm tropical jungle adventure, and go birding three degrees south of the equator, with Dawn on the Amazon. |
