From €54 per person
See availability →A Belen Market and Floating City tour in Iquitos, private and led by a guide: jungle produce and crafts on land, then a traditional boat ride among the houses built over the water.
This Belen Market and Floating City tour in Iquitos covers two sides of the city's riverside life in about two and a half hours, as a private tour with your own guide and transport. You meet at the Iquitos Boulevard and walk its six blocks to reach Belen, the biggest outdoor market in Loreto.
Inside, stalls offer produce gathered in the forest and fished from the river, plus handmade crafts and natural goods tied to local customs. With a guide at your side, you see how people here eat, heal and trade.
From there a traditional boat takes you through the so-called Peruvian Venice, the Floating City, where families have their homes on the water itself. Up close you watch how residents earn a living and go about the day on the river. A tuk-tuk or mototaxi brings you back to the starting point.
