Day 2
On the second day, starting around 9 am, we'll set out to explore the river, searching for three-toed sloths and caimans along the way. This activity lasts approximately 2.5 hours. Around midday, we'll navigate downriver towards the heart of the Tambopata Reserve and Lake Sandoval, a prime location for spotting various monkey species and, with luck, a variety of birds, black caimans, and giant river otters. Throughout the day, we'll enjoy the palm-fringed landscape surrounding Lake Sandoval. The afternoon is chosen because the weather is cooler and the animals are most active.
