Day 1: The tour starts at 9:00 am from Hostal Casa de las Palmas, located at Carrera 11 Calle 13-110 in Leticia, Amazonas, Colombia. From there, you will be transported by land to the Tacana River, situated eleven kilometers from Leticia, to begin a guided hike of approximately two hours through the jungle, eventually reaching a Huitoto maloca.

After the meal, you’ll have the opportunity to learn about the mambe process and understand the significance of the coca plant for the Huitoto ethnic group, deeply rooted in their ancestral tradition. As night falls, accompanied by the guides, you’ll embark on a fascinating jungle walk, exploring and observing the mysterious nocturnal life of the jungle for approximately one or two hours. Later, you’ll return to the maloca to spend the night, enjoying a well-deserved rest in a hammock.
