Day 1 #1

Hotel pickup and transfer to the Bellavista Nanay port.
On board our comfortable and safe typical boat, the journey along the Amazon River will allow you to appreciate a wonderful panorama where the magnificence of the river unfolds through the lush jungle.
Dolphin Watching: During the trip, we will observe gray or pink dolphins.
Visit to the “Indigenous Community – KUKAMA TRIBE”: We will visit and dance with them, as they have been guardians of the region’s biodiversity, using their deep knowledge of plants and natural medicine to survive in this challenging environment. Additionally, their rich oral tradition has passed down stories and myths explaining their origin and relationship with nature.
MONKEY ISLAND – Neyser: Continuing our journey along the Amazon, we will enter a creek to visit monkeys in their natural habitat. Upon arrival, we will be greeted by various species of monkeys living in this area, where we can learn about each of them, feed them, play with them, and take photos … all in their natural environment!
Arrival at our Lodge where a brief explanation of the sustainability rules of the lodge and its surroundings will help you better understand the jungle.
Lunch: Typical jungle dishes. (Please inform us in advance for vegetarian options.)
SWIM IN THE AMAZON: After lunch, we will have a 30-minute rest, followed by a refreshing swim in the Amazon River, enjoying its beaches and participating in a “flowering bath” in the black mud.
AMAZON SUNSET: Observation of the beautiful sunset over the Amazon River (weather permitting) and possible pink dolphin sightings (seasonal).
Dinner
NIGHT EXCURSION: An evening walk through the lush jungle to observe various species of insects, tarantulas, frogs, scorpions, monkeys, and nocturnal birds.

Day 2 #2

AMAZON SUNRISE: Observation of the sunrise, along with the sounds and sightings of various bird species.
Breakfast at the Lodge.
WILDLIFE RESCUE CENTER: We will head to the Wildlife Rescue Center (“Fundo Rony”) to observe and interact with various wild animals such as sloths, monkeys, macaws, toucans, boa constrictors, and turtles. This visit offers a valuable opportunity to learn to appreciate and respect Amazon wildlife.
Note: Animals in this center are kept in enclosures for a few days as they receive care before being released back into the wild.
AMAZONIAN TRAPICHE: Enjoy a tasting of artisanal macerates such as camu camu, “7 roots,” and ginger, providing an opportunity to harness their medicinal properties. These infusions offer health benefits such as strengthening the immune system with vitamin C from camu camu, improving digestion and promoting vitality with “7 roots,” and relieving digestive discomfort and nausea with ginger.
PIRANHA FISHING: We will prepare for an artisanal fishing tour, where the guide will teach us the local techniques for fishing piranhas or other species using the same materials that jungle inhabitants use for subsistence.
Buffet Lunch: Typical jungle dishes.
After lunch, take some time to relax, explore the surroundings, or enjoy the camp’s pool.
