Day 1: The excursion departs at 9:00 am from the Casa de las Palmas hostel in Carrera 11 Calle 13-110 in Leticia, Amazonas, Colombia. You will be driven by private transportation towards the jungle, approximately 25 km from Leticia, where the trekking starts together with our Ticuna guides; we will walk for about 2-3 hours until we reach the camp in the primary forest in order to enjoy lunch and engage in exploration activities of fauna and flora during the afternoon. The night includes a one to two-hour nocturnal walk and sleeping in hammocks with a mosquito net.
Day 2: After breakfast, a guided 2-3 hour walk to identify the different plants and trees awaits you. Then, in the afternoon, we will venture further into the jungle with our guides to establish a camp and participate in night fishing or search for luminous mushrooms. At the end of this long day of walking in the jungle, you will enjoy a delicious dinner prepared by the guide and sleep in the camp, with hammocks.
Day 3: Delight a unique morning identifying trees, practicing orientation and learning Ticuna customs; activities that will help you connect with nature and tradition. At midday, you will have lunch in the jungle and will go camping in a different place, in order to spend the night with sounds of the incredible wild fauna.
Day 4: In the last day a relaxed morning with a handicraft and painting workshop awaits you. Eventually you will have the option of going for a walk to search for wild fruits like acai, depending on the season. Then you will have your last delicious lunch in the jungle and finally the last trekking of 2-3 hours to the main road, where our private vehicle will take you back safely to Leticia. The arrival to the city is between 2 and 5 pm.

The return to Leticia is by boat, estimating arrival between 2:00 pm and 5:00 pm. This modification is optional and depends on the level of the Amazon River..
