Your expert bilingual guide (English/Spanish) leads you into a local reserve and Indigenous community, sharing insights on the region's incredible biodiversity (home to the world's highest number of bird species) and the traditional knowledge of the Amazon's peoples. Walk lush paths to the Takana River for a refreshing swim, then visit Maloka Cuchira for a traditional lunch and a fascinating talk on ancestral customs and sacred plants.

Real talk: the jungle is humid and buggy—bring repellent, comfortable closed-toe shoes for muddy trails, and a rain jacket; moderate fitness required for the ~3–4 hours of walking.
Private group (your party only)—book early for dry season.
Here's practical advice to help your Amazon day go well, based on common experiences with jungle conditions, wildlife, and weather. We've pulled this from what past guests told us after their trips.
Common issues. Not wheelchair accessible—jungle terrain. Guests found moderate fitness sufficient; no major climbs. Weather rarely cancels; dress in layers.
High likelihood—Amazon is rich in animals. Guests saw monkeys, birds, frogs, and sometimes caimans—guides maximize sightings.
Moderate—short trails, some uneven ground. Guests with average fitness handled it fine; guides adjust pace.
Yes for ages 5+ who handle long days and jungle conditions. Families said older kids loved the wildlife and swim, but supervise closely.
Limited—lunch is simple (rice, beans, veggies). Notify early for adjustments. Guests found options sufficient.
Trails and river give great angles—bring a good zoom lens or phone with stabilizer. Guides pause for shots when animals appear.
