Your guide will tell you all about each specie their habitat, including their lifestyle and how they spend their days. You will be able to take marvelous colorful pictures, and following your macaw viewing you will enjoy a delicious breakfast on the boat before heading to the stream to observe the shores of the Tambopata River. Whilst there you can search for more wildlife, which includes jaguars, capybaras, tapirs, and caimans.
After a few hours you will arrive to the Port of Filadelfia, where you will be taken to an Amazonian lodge to rest for a while and savor lunch.

Once you have accommodated yourself comfortably in the lodge, a nice dinner will be awaiting you.
