Wildlife & more wildlife

You will be able to choose based on a list of activities (either adventure, boat rides, botanical walks, wildlife observation or specific places in the city) that are to your liking according to your times and rhythm.
ABOUT ME
My name is Marlon Ashanga, I grew up in the Belen neighborhood (Iquitos, Peru) and I work as a local Amazonian guide providing jungle accompaniment to travelers from all over the world who visit my region. I started working as a local guide in 2008. For many years I dedicated myself to providing guide services in and around the city of Iquitos, and the Belen market as a must stop (also known as «jungle pharmacy» for the natural medicine you can find there).
Currently, and with the help of a friend who encouraged me, we started this small digital project as part of a strategy to improve the services I offer. I think it is a way to make you know my culture, my day-to-day experiences as a local guide and offer you security during our trip to the jungle or in this city so full of contrasts as this part of the region of my country, Perú.
On this personal website you will find a range of services, but if you are missing something, feel free to let me know your wishes.
