During the trip, we’ll immerse ourselves in a fascinating natural environment, and with luck, we’ll spot ronsocos, caimans, turtles, herons, cormorants , and other animal species. At our lodge, you’ll be welcomed with a delicious nectar of tropical Amazonian fruits and escorted to your comfortable room (bungalow). A succulent lunch will await you in our cozy, rustic dining room. Once your palate is satisfied, you will be led by our specialized guide through a conveniently marked interpretive trail to Cocha Caimán, a small lagoon with an abundant presence of black caiman (Melanosuchus niger) and white caiman (Caiman crocodilus) specimens. In the late afternoon, back at the lodge, you’ll witness the spectacular Amazon sunset from the riverbank, an experience filled with colors in inviting shades and intensities. At dusk, a delicious dinner awaits you, and you’ll have free time to share unforgettable moments in our bar, equipped with an excellent table games room and stocked with all the drinks you can imagine.

A hearty breakfast will provide you with the energy you need for a morning full of new experiences. After breakfast, we’ll begin a hike deep into the forest, along specially prepared trails with bridges to cross ravines and rivers. During the walk we will observe the flooded forest and a variety of flora and fauna and continuing, we will arrive at the majestic APU VICTOR LAKE, with crystal-clear waters, surrounded by immense swamps and gigantic trees.

Back at the hostel, a hearty lunch awaits you. In the afternoon, accompanied by our specialized guide, we will visit Monkey Island, a unique place in the heart of the Madre de Dios River, just five minutes from the lodge. During the hike, we will observe extraordinary landscapes, with lush flora, sheltering a variety of monkey species in their natural habitat, such as the Maquisapa, Capuchin, Leoncillo, and Fraile monkeys , and with luck, other animal species such as the coati and sloth bear, as well as a wide variety of birds. Finally, we’ll complete our visit to the island by enjoying the sunset, one of the most impressive views in the jungle. We’ll then return to the lodge and conclude the day with a pleasant dinner.
