Itinerary
Day 1
We will leave Iquitos at 9:00 a.m. and head to Bella Vista Nanay and the Amazon, the most popular river in the world for its great length and flow. We will board a boat to tour this lung of the American continent that has a dense rainforest, the largest on the planet. What trees grow in the Amazon? What animals inhabit this paradise? We will discover it!
We will admire a curious phenomenon of nature when we arrive at the Nanay River, as the color of its waters changes with respect to the Amazon. If we are lucky, we will be able to see some of the pink dolphins that inhabit the jungle.
We will arrive at an animal sanctuary where we will see sloths, monkeys and anacondas.
Around 1:30 p.m., we will move to the banks of the Nanay River, where we will stay in a two-story house made with materials from the jungle. Once there, we will rest and replenish our strength with a full menu.
We will leave again at 3:00 pm. We will visit the Kukama Indians, a people with an economy based on agriculture, fishing and hunting. What is the mythology of the Kukama people? What are their rituals? Are they an isolated people? Our tour guide will answer these and other questions.
We will return to the lodge complex at 17:00 to rest again and have dinner. We will take a night walk to listen carefully to the songs emitted by birds and insects. We will learn which sound corresponds to which animal.
After the walk, we will retire to spend the night in our lodge.
Day 2
We will leave home early in the morning to enjoy the sunrise in the Amazon (around 5:00 am). We will contemplate how the colors begin to filter into the dense jungle as the sun rises, a memory hard to forget!
We will spend the morning observing the birds of all colors that inhabit the Peruvian jungle. This opportunity will allow us to see unique species such as the Amazonian herons and the beautiful pink dolphins.
Before continuing, we will replenish our strength with a delicious breakfast. Afterwards, we will head to the butterfly farm.
We will return to the lodge at 12:30 to rest before lunch. At 14:30 we will board again a boat that will take us back to Iquitos, where we will return around 16:30.
Accommodation
Accommodation for this excursion is in cabins with private room and bathroom. You can choose whether you prefer a double bed or two single beds in the room.
