During the journey, you'll witness the merging of the Amazon and Nanay Rivers, and stop at Monkey Island to see protected monkey species. Back on the boat, enjoy the scenery until we reach the lodge, where you'll be welcomed with fruit juice before checking in and enjoying your first Amazonian meal. In the afternoon, join our guides on a two-hour walk through the Yanamono reserve to spot flora and fauna. Return to the lodge for relaxation and a serene sunset.

We may see some white flowers on their first day of blooming, turning pink on the second day.
These imposing water and swamp plants can grow up to 1 meter in diameter and are pollinated by beetles. Victoria Amazonica is well known for its immense circular leaf, often depicted with a child sitting in the center to demonstrate its magnitude and strength. Return to the lodge for a delicious lunch.
