Wake up at 5:30 AM to the haunting calls of howler monkeys echoing through the treetops. With the first light of dawn, we paddle across the still waters of the lake on a catamaran, enjoying morning coffee as the jungle comes to life. Keep an eye out for giant otters playfully swimming, maquisapa monkeys swinging from branches, and an array of birdlife, from majestic herons to colorful kingfishers. After this tranquil experience, we return to the lodge for a hearty Amazonian breakfast. 

Post-breakfast, we embark on a leisurely 4 km hike through the rainforest, following trails that meander beneath the towering Kapok and Ironwood trees. Along the way, our expert guide will help you spot wildlife that may cross our path, from curious monkeys to colorful frogs and insects. After a flavorful lunch featuring local Amazonian cuisine, enjoy some downtime before we head out for a river cruise on a traditional Peke Peke canoe. As we float along, the sun sets behind the forest, casting golden reflections on the water. We end the day with a light dinner, retiring early to prepare for the adventures ahead.

As the sun rises, you’ll sip coffee while taking in the breathtaking panorama, spotting birds and possibly some mammals waking up for the day. After this peaceful moment, we return to the lodge for breakfast and then set off on a two-hour nature walk through the forest on the lake’s island.
