Trip plan

We will begin this trip by leaving Rurrenabaque at 8:30 am. After an hour's boat trip we will visit a local community to learn a little of the way of life in the jungle. During the boat ride along the rivers Beni and Tuichi we can enjoy magnificent landscapes such as the Bala Canyon. When we arrive at our Eco-lodge, "Mashaquipe", you will be welcomed with a refreshing glass of fruit juice, will be shown your accommodation and we will have lunch. In the afternoon we will take a leisurely walk along trails specifically designed for watching animals such as monkeys and peccaries and for learning about the natural environment.

Breakfast will be at 7:30 am. After breakfast we will prepare for spending a night camping in the depths of the jungle. We will have to carry the essential equipment (sleeping bags, sleeping mats, mosquito nets) during a walk of about 4 hours to reach our camp, " Arenalito", where we can prepare lunch and rest. At approximately 3:30 pm we will walk to the top of a mountain where we can see macaws, parrots and other birds. From there we can watch these colourful birds, enjoythe beautiful scenery of the rainforest and a stunning sunset. That night, if you want, we can take a short walk during which we have a great chance of spotting armadillos, snakes, monkeys, tapirs, nocturnal birds etc. Often at night you can hear the roar of the jaguar or puma.

We will rise at 5.00am to take a short walk near the camp where we can enjoy the sunrise and listen to noisy howler monkeys and a variety of birds welcoming the new day. After breakfast we will head for the River Tuichi where we will build a log raft (traditional transport of the Amazonian Indians) and go rafting for about 2 hours until we reach the eco-lodge. However we will also have the boat for security, our backpacks and for people who do not wish to participate in this activity. We will have lunch at the “Mashaquipe" eco-lodge and in the afternoon the group can either relax or participate in an activity of its choice.

We will get up at 6.00 am and have breakfast before returning to Rurrenabaque where we will arrive at about 8.30am. We will immediately leave for Santa Rosa. Along the way we will have great opportunities to see sloths, anteaters, birds, and other animals. Around midday we will take a boat trip of about 15 minutes to our eco-lodge, “The Turtles”. You will be shown your accommodation and we will have lunch. In the afternoon, after a rest, we will go to the beautiful Lake Bravo where we can go piranha fishing, look for toucans and watch a spectacular sunset. After dinner we will take a short boat trip to look for the eyes of animals by torchlight

We will start the day at 7.30 am with a good breakfast and then take the boat along the River Yacuma where will look for animals such as caimen, capybara, turtles, dolphins, monkeys and many different birds. We will return to the eco-lodge for lunch. Then, after a short rest, either in your room or in the hammocks, we will go in search of a suitable place to swim with the dolphins - depending on the time of year.

We will get up early (5:00 am) to watch the sunrise and listen to the sounds of howler monkeys and birds which herald the awakening of the pampas. We will have breakfast and then go back out on the River Yacuma looking for a good place to walk and search for anacondas, which with a little luck, we will find. We will return to the eco-lodge for lunch and then, at about 2pm, we will take the car and return to Rurrenabaque where we will arrive at  about 4:30 p.m.
