Day 1: First Encounter with the Jungle – Rivers, Tribes, and Nighttime Adventures
Our adventure begins in Iquitos, where we’ll pick you up and take you to the dock. There, you’ll board a speedboat that will take you along the Nanay River until it merges with the mighty Amazon, the largest and most powerful river on Earth.
Our first stop will leave you breathless: the spectacular natural phenomenon where the Nanay, Itaya, and Amazon Rivers meet, creating a mesmerizing dance of currents. Next, we’ll visit a local indigenous community, where you’ll be welcomed with traditional songs and dances and have the chance to purchase unique handcrafted souvenirs.
In the afternoon, we’ll explore Fundo Pedrito, a wildlife sanctuary where you’ll feed giant fish, see caimans up close, and admire the stunning Victoria Amazonica water lilies. Upon arriving at the lodge, you’ll enjoy a delicious dinner before setting out on an exciting nighttime excursion, where you’ll uncover the jungle’s mysteries under a sky full of stars.
Day 2: Adrenaline & Wonder – Canopy Walks, Dolphins, and Traditional Fishing
We’ll rise early to navigate the river at dawn, when the jungle awakens with a symphony of birds and wildlife. After breakfast, we’ll head to Avatar Canopy Park, where you’ll walk across hanging bridges and glide on zip lines high above the treetops.
In the afternoon, a unique experience awaits: fishing for piranhas using ancient techniques and swimming in the warm waters of the Amazon River. As the sun sets, we’ll set out in search of the legendary pink river dolphins, watching as the sky transforms into shades of gold and crimson. The day will end around a crackling campfire, where our local guides will share fascinating stories and myths of the Amazon.
Day 3: The Secrets of the Jungle – Natural Medicine & Return to Iquitos
On our final day, we’ll explore the incredible world of Amazonian botany. As we walk through towering ancient trees and medicinal plants, you’ll learn how indigenous communities use them for healing. One of the most awe-inspiring moments will be standing before the majestic Lupuna tree, a sacred giant of the rainforest.
After a final lunch at the lodge, we’ll begin our journey back to Iquitos, arriving around 3:30 PM. You’ll leave with a heart full of adventure, unforgettable stories, and a deep connection to the natural wonders of the Amazon.
