## Insider tips

- _Insider_: The adventure starts when you disembark; you often walk directly from the aircraft to the jungle's edge for a memorable experience.
- _Quiet_: No waiting rooms here; it’s you, the airstrip, and maybe a handful of fellow travelers appreciating the tranquil surrounds.
- _Local_: Bring enough Peruvian soles in small bills; you won’t find card services or ATMs nearby.
- _Avoid_: Don’t plan any same-day connections; weather can impact flight schedules causing unexpected delays or cancellations.
- _Time_: Daylight hours are your safest bet for arrivals, as the strip may lack runway lighting for night operations.
- _Money_: Stock up on groceries and essentials before visiting Alerta — options in and around the village are sparse.
