ADVENTURE IN THE AMAZON.
After an early breakfast, you will start your exploration, taking advantage of the early hours of the day, the best time to observe the flourishing activities of the tropical forest. Below is a typical day, but you can take many excursions via canoe rather than on foot. Your tour guide will share his knowledge with you during a walk in the rainforest, and you’ll learn and understand how life in the jungle coexists in a fragile balance. Your guide will also explain the use of medicinal plants, a knowledge that has been passed on from generation to generation and is still applied by the local population today. Look for amphibians, butterflies, centipedes and millipedes, snakes, birds, monkeys, and other mammals along the trail. Later you will return to the lodge for your lunch. In the afternoon, you’ll make an excursion that will take you along the Cuyabeno River to discover the animals that live in the dense forest on the banks of the river, especially monkeys, toucans, and sloths. There’ll be the opportunity to spot river dolphins (Inia geoffrensis and Sotalia fluviatilis) in the magnificent fluvial landscape. Before having your dinner, you’ll head into the dark forest to find its nightlife, such as insects, spiders, snakes, or colorful frogs, accompanied by the nocturnal sounds of the jungle.

INDIGENOUS COMMUNITY, LAGUNA GRANDE, & IGAPÓ.
Enjoy an early morning walk through the forest to see the wildlife, especially monkeys and birds. Return to the lodge for breakfast, then continue by motorized canoe along the «Turtle Path» to visit the Seoqueya community, where several families of the indigenous Siona group live. One of the family members will demonstrate traditional cooking techniques, including preparing the typical yuca bread called cassava. You’ll then try your hand at making bread under instruction from the family as your guide explains local traditions and cultures. In the afternoon, continue by motorized canoe along the Cuyabeno River to Laguna Grande. Here, you’ll explore a unique rainforest ecosystem: a flooded forest (igapó) characterized by massive trees and lush greenery. After exploring the lagoon, cool off with a swim in the calm waters and take in the sunset. Continue your adventure downriver to see more nocturnal wildlife, especially caimans, before returning to the lodge.

RETURN TO CIVILIZATION.
This morning activity will be a short canoe trip to enjoy the sunrise in the jungle, where you will have a good opportunity to observe some different types of wild animals and enjoy another moment of peace in this wonderful natural paradise. After breakfast, you will have time to prepare your luggage for your return trip. You will navigate upriver to return to El Puente de Cuyabeno.
