Here, every hour brings new sights, sounds, and moments to treasure. Let’s walk you through a typical day.
Morning: Wake Up with the Forest
5:30 AM – Dawn Chorus and Coffee
The jungle wakes before the sun. Howler monkeys call in the distance. Birds sing in chorus. You open your eyes to a new kind of silence—alive, powerful, deep.
Grab a hot drink and prepare for the day. Early mornings offer the best chance to see rare animals.
6:00 AM – Canoe Ride on the Añangu Lagoon
Glide through still, mirror-like waters. Spot giant otters, caimans, and herons. Every movement is guided by local experts.
Midday: Explore, Learn, Rest
8:30 AM – Jungle Hike
Venture into terra firme forest. Your guide shows you medicinal plants and bird calls. You may see capuchin monkeys, toucans, or colorful frogs.
10:00 AM – Parrot Clay Lick
One of the region’s top birdwatching moments. Hundreds of parrots gather to eat clay, rich in minerals. Bright feathers, loud calls, and unforgettable views.
12:30 PM – Lunch and Free Time
Return to the lodge. Enjoy fresh, local food. Relax in a hammock. Listen to the sounds of the forest.
Afternoon: Reach the Canopy
3:00 PM – Canopy Observation Tower
Climb 36 meters up a kapok tree. The view? Breathtaking. Watch monkeys leap and birds fly across the canopy. You’ll feel the scale and power of the rainforest.
