DAY ONE

  1. Departure from Iquitos: Private overland transfer to the town of Nauta.

  2. Into the Wild: Board a typical riverboat. You will witness the Meeting of the Waters,  where the Marañón and Ucayali rivers join to give birth to the Amazon River.

  3. Arrival at the Reserve: Entry procedures at the Santo Domingo checkpoint. Traditional lunch (e.g., Patarashca or fresh river fish).

  4. Pink Dolphin Scouting: Navigation through the black waters of the Yanayacu Pucate  area, prime habitat for both Pink and Gray River Dolphins.

  5. Alligator Spotting: Night canoe excursion. Using high-powered spotlights, your guide will locate the glowing eyes of White and Black Caimans.

DAY TWO

  1. Dawn Chorus: Early morning birdwatching session. Keep an eye out for Macaws, Toucans, and the prehistoric-looking Hoatzin (Shansho).

  2. Primary Forest Trek: A guided hike through "Terra Firme" (non-flooded) forest. Learn about medicinal plants, find giant Kapok trees (Lupuna), and spot Howler monkey

  3. Piranha Fishing: Try your hand at traditional fishing using wooden poles. You’ll be looking for Red-bellied Piranhas.

  4. The Mirror Sunset: Relax as the boat stops in the middle of a lagoon. The water becomes so still it acts as a perfect mirror, reflecting the vibrant Amazonian sunset.

  5. Nocturnal Life: A short night walk to discover the "micro-world" of the jungle: tarantulas, colorful frogs, and giant insects.

DAY THREE

  1. Conservation Visit: Visit the 20 de Enero community to see their sustainability projects, such as the Taricaya Turtle repopulation program.
