Itinerary
Day 1
Your Amazon adventure begins as we navigate through the lush rainforests of Peru and Brazil, arriving at Zacambú Rainforest Ecolodge. Upon arrival, you'll be welcomed with a refreshing natural fruit juice and a traditional regional lunch. In the afternoon, we head to the meeting point of the rivers for an unforgettable dolphin-watching experience, where you may encounter both the iconic pink and gray river dolphins up close. As the sun sets, the landscape transforms into a breathtaking scene, perfect for capturing stunning photographs. After dark, enjoy a guided boat excursion through rivers and lagoons in search of nocturnal wildlife, including caimans in their natural habitat.
Day 2
Start the day with a traditional Amazonian breakfast before venturing into the rainforest by canoe or on foot, depending on seasonal conditions. Discover giant rainforest trees, strangler figs, giant water lilies, and learn about the ancestral use of medicinal plants by local communities. Following lunch, experience the excitement of piranha fishing in the region's dark-water lagoons. At the end of the day, unwind with a traditional drink while listening to fascinating local stories and legends that reveal the true spirit of the Amazon.
Day 3
Witness the magic of an Amazon sunrise, one of the most extraordinary moments of the journey. Enjoy opportunities to observe a variety of birds and primates in their natural environment. After breakfast, embark on a deeper rainforest exploration, increasing your chances of spotting wildlife such as sloths and colorful macaws. Following lunch, return to Leticia in the afternoon, taking with you an authentic, safe, and truly unforgettable Amazon experience.

Which tour should you choose?
The 3-day tour is an essential introduction to the Amazon. It includes hiking, paddling, fishing, wildlife observation, and a complete experience for travelers with limited time.
The 4-day tour offers a deeper exploration. It includes an early outing to a restinga area, a special ecosystem that forms within the flooded forest. This day feels more immersive, with traditional food preparation and direct contact with the rainforest environment.
The 5-day tour adds one night of camping in the rainforest. You travel farther into the jungle, set up camp, share time around the fire, and take a broader night exploration to discover the sounds, wildlife, and mystery of the Amazon after dark.
