1) Day: Tour Start
We start very early, departing from the bus station for Nauta at 8:30 a.m. (sharp). Upon arrival in Nauta, we leave the port in a traditional *peque-peque* boat and travel downstream along the Marañón River for about an hour to the point where the Marañón and Ucayali rivers merge to form the majestic Amazon; here, you can enjoy sightings of pink and gray dolphins.We then travel upstream along the Ucayali River for approximately two and a half hours to reach our base camp, located on the banks of the Cumaceba Creek—260 km from Iquitos—and surrounded by primary rainforest.In the afternoon, we explore the jungle, traversing seasonally flooded areas; during the expedition, we will observe various monkey species and—if we are lucky—sloths. We will also see the planet's largest aquatic plant, the famous *Victoria regia* water lily. Finally, enjoy your first night listening to the sounds of crickets, frogs, and other wildlife.

On the second day we will leave at sunrise to look for birds before having breakfast back at the lodge. After we eat, we will head out on the boat so you can take another up-close look at more alligators and different jungle species.In the afternoon we will return to the lodge to eat lunch and relax after having explored the jungle for many hours. During this time you can go fishing, go swimming, or simply rest in the lodge. In the evening we will eat dinner and then head out for a night trek to see giant frogs, insects, and tarantulas. If you’d like, you can hold the tarantula and let it crawl on your arm!.
