I wonder what Scott uses to fertilize those trees and shrubs -- they are so healthy. Care to share your secrets with us Scott?

depends what your budget is. I heard that Scott now charges 160usd per day and when I was there it was about 45usd, so I guess it has become quite popular. I was living in Lima at that time and so traveled to iquitos with a friend and stayed at a someone's house. We then walked around the city and looked for an affordable tour company and ran into Scott's place. If you pay the the full price, they will pick you up at the airport. Or you could take me as your travel guide :). I
