We'll also pass through the areas of 'chamizales' and 'varillales' vegetation with white sandy soil in which the Allpahuayo Mishana National Reserve is located. This is an amazing place for the bird watching, hopefully we'll get to see lots of endemic species. At 10:30 am we'll arrive in Nauta, one of the main river ports of the Peruvian Amazon.
