With knowledgeable naturalist guides and flexible activities tailored to your interests, you will be fully immersed in the rhythms and biodiversity of the Amazon.

Today is yours to enjoy at leisure, with no scheduled activities. You may choose to relax at your jungle lodge, take in river views, or simply unwind in a hammock surrounded by rainforest sounds.

If you wish, guided excursions can be arranged, such as a boat ride along the Amazon in search of pink river dolphins and monkeys, a rainforest walk to learn about medicinal plants, or an evening outing to spot caimans and nocturnal wildlife.

Enjoy another unscheduled day to experience the Amazon at your own pace. Optional activities can be organized based on your interests, including visits to nearby riverside communities to learn about traditional fishing and farming, birdwatching excursions at dawn, or canoe trips through quiet lagoons.

You may also choose to relax at the lodge, participate in a cooking demonstration, or simply immerse yourself in the rhythms of the rainforest.

You can choose active exploration or quiet time immersed in the remarkable biodiversity of the Amazon, shaping the day entirely around your preferences.

After breakfast at your lodge, enjoy a final morning in the Amazon before your scheduled transfer by boat back to Iquitos. Upon arrival, you will be met and assisted with your transfer to the airport.
