🚐 Pre-book an airport transfer →Getting Around
Coronel FAP Francisco Secada Vignetta International Airport (IQT) → Hotel La Casona (Jirón Fitzcarrald 147)
💡 Negotiate firmly before you get in—standard rate for a shared taxi is 15 PEN, private 25 PEN. Drivers often try to charge tourists double.
Iquitos Airport (IQT) – roadside → Hotel La Casona (drop-off near Plaza de Armas)
💡 Flag down any colectivo heading towards 'Centro' from the airport road. They’re cramped but cheap. Don’t expect a dedicated stop—shout 'baja' when you see the hotel’s street corner.
Hotel La Casona → Anywhere in central Iquitos (e.g. Belén Market or Plaza de Armas)
💡 Agree the price before you climb into the sidecar. Short hops inside the centre should cost no more than 3–4 PEN. Carry small change.
Hotel La Casona → Malecón Tarapacá or Belén floating market
💡 Best for short, scenic trips. The driver pedals, you sit in the bucket seat. Agree a round-trip price if you're headed to a market—they’ll wait for 20 minutes for free.

Top Attractions in Iquitos
💡 Try a 'helado de aguaje' (local fruit ice cream) from the stalls – it's cheap and tastes like a tropical sorbet. Best visited after 5pm when it's cooler.
💡 Walk the full stretch from the Clock Tower to the old Hotel de Turistas. The street food stalls sell fresh fruit juices for 2-3 soles.
💡 Free entrance but you need to sign in with your passport at reception. Allow 45 minutes. No English labels, so bring a translation app or guidebook.
💡 Check out the Casa de Fierro on the corner — an iron house designed by Gustave Eiffel. Free to admire from outside.
💡 Go early (6am-8am) to avoid heat and crowds. Keep valuables hidden; bag snatching happens in tight aisles. A boat tour costs around 15-20 soles per person.
