Zacambu Rainforest Lodge [4 Days Tour]

USD$487

Day 1

We’ll travel for approximately two hours down the majestic Amazon River and up the Javari River, enjoying the vibrant landscape along the way. On arrival at the Zacambu Rainforest Lodge, our #ChildrenOfTheJungle will welcome you with a refreshing drink and help you get settled in your room. In the afternoon we’ll head out (on foot or by canoe, depending on the season) to see rubber trees and watch a rubber-tapping demonstration. You’ll learn about the local history of rubber tapping, which goes back more than one hundred years. We will then continue by boat down to where the two bodies of water meet to watch the friendly gray and pink dolphins.

Day 2

We’ll welcome daybreak with a quiet outing in canoes, paddling around Lake João Pará as the forest awakes. After breakfast, our adventure will continue down a trail (on foot or by motorized canoe, depending on the season) toward Marajá Lagoon for more nature observation, including sights of the incredible Victoria regia aquatic plants and the walking trees that live in the area. We will then return to the lodge. Nightfall will be full of surprises as we search amid the rivers and lagoons for caimans of all sizes in their natural habitat.

Day 3

We’ll head to Piranha Lagoon for a morning of fishing. We expect to catch different species of fish, among them the red piranha which is considered to be the fiercest of them all. In the afternoon there will be an outing by boat through nearby lagoons and rivers, exploring the vibrant landscapes and observing local fauna. At night we’ll head out on an exotic and fascinating adventure as we walk through the darkness. You’ll develop an unmatched feeling of admiration for the imposing majesty of the jungle’s nocturnal life.

Day 4

In the morning we’ll head out by boat to begin a day filled with adventure and survival experiences. You’ll get to see what daily life is like for the locals—fishing, collecting fruit, and preparing a meal with our #ChildrenOfTheJungle. We’ll then take a hike, exploring the lowland jungle and observing the vegetation and animal species endemic to this habitat. A boat will be waiting for us at the river’s edge to take us back to the lodge. From there, we’ll return to Leticia.
