Day 1: Arrival and Adventure
We'll pick you up at the bus station and take you to our cozy lodge, where a refreshing welcome with seasonal fruit drinks awaits. Settle into your bungalow and get ready for an introductory jungle hike, where you'll discover the variety of plants, insects, and birds in our conservation forest. And for the more adventurous, a thrilling suspension bridge (zip line) awaits you! In the afternoon, we'll cruise the river in search of wild animals and take in the beautiful sunset. As night falls, we'll look for caimans and capybaras.

Then we'll arrive at Lake Sandoval, where we'll paddle slowly and discover the lake's wildlife, including piranhas, birds, butterflies, mammals, monkeys, and the giant river otter. We'll return to the lodge in the evening and enjoy a relaxing campfire.

The sun will rise early (4:30 AM), and we'll go out to observe the parrot and macaw clay lick. After breakfast, we'll walk through the conservation forest in search of chestnut trees (Brazil nuts), snakes, sloths, and wildlife. Then we'll return to the lodge to pack our bags and leave.
