To sum it up, scenery & wildlife! Are you joining us?

This tour has as its focus wildlife watching from a motorized canoe in a shallow and narrow river

Good morning Amazon explorers! We meet up early morning (around 8) in Rurrenabaque to board our private vehicle. While you catch up with your new travel buddies, we will be transporting you to Santa Rosa de Yacuma, less than 3-hours from the paradise that is the Yacuma Wildlife Reserve. Grab some food at lunchtime before we hit the ‘road’ – or should we say the river - you’re going to need the fuel for the fun and frolics that lay ahead. The afternoon river trip will take around 3-4 hours during which your guide will help you spot the myriad of animals that make this place home. Count on watching caymans, capybaras, squirrel monkeys, herons, hoatzins, turtles and much more. Upon arrival at the lodge, take some rest and then come out for sunset at a convenient location agreed with the whole group. After dinner, an optional but highly recommended nocturnal boat ride is for you to join in order to be mesmerized by the sounds of the jungle and some nocturnal wildlife. Meals: Lunch, Dinner (L, D) Accommodation: Basic room in cabin lodge with shared bathroom (mosquito nets, sheets/cover are provided)
After breakfast, the morning will be dedicated to getting active by walking on the flat grasslands in search of the elusive anaconda. We take great care to avoid harming these animals and ourselves by wearing rubber boots and following our experienced guide. Contrary to popular belief, anacondas are non venomous and harmless to humans. Enjoy lunch at the lodge The afternoon is left for you to enjoy the way you prefer. You may choose to join the piranha fishing activity or relax on the hammock at the lodge reading a book. At the end of the afternoon, yet another amazing sunset awaits for which we hope you will join us as well as fellow travelers. Dinner at the lodge Meals: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner (B, L, D) Accommodation: Basic room in cabin lodge with shared bathroom (mosquito nets, sheets/cover are provided)
Hopefully the birds wake you nice and early this morning - we've got a solid morning of exploring coming up. First on the agenda is a new boat ride along the river where we'll do our best effort to spot the friendly pink dolphins and optionally swim with them. After lunch at the lodge, you can choose to go for a short siesta, then we’ll seal off the day with a return boat ride to the port (2-3 hrs). before embarking on our drive back to Rurrenabaque. Arrive between 4-5 PM. Meals: Breakfast, Lunch (B, L) Accommodation: Not provided
