Our team will provide information about the lodge and explain the activities scheduled throughout the tour. 1:00 PM – Lunch After lunch and the orientation, you will have time to settle into your room. Afternoon – Jungle Walk We begin a jungle walk through part of the rainforest, where we can observe ancient trees and, with some luck, monkeys, birds, and insects in their natural habitat. 7:30 PM – Night River Excursion We head out for a nighttime boat ride along the river in search of caimans. At night, their eyes can shine when illuminated, making it an ideal time to observe them as they become active and search for food.
