Program
Day 1
We pick
you up in your hostel at 08:30am to the Rio Preto village (80kms by
road). There we visit the municipal market before leaving in a motorized
canoe to the Malocas Jungle
Lodge. On arrival at the Lodge we will be received by the local
staff who will show you your accommodation.
Lunch
around 13H30: regional food made of delicious Amazonian fishes.
After
lunch, you will visit one of our Caboclos neighbors who still live in
similar conditions to their Indian ancestors. Progressively, you will
learn how to survive in the jungle thanks to useful plants (to eat, to
take care of yourself, to build a shelter). Then you will learn how to
fish piranhas in the late afternoon, and if you are successful you will
maybe taste them at dinner or lunch!
Dinner
around 19h30.
At night,
you will have the possibility to leave the lodge with your guide to
“hunt” the alligators.
Day 2
Birds
observation at sunrise (please ask to your guide if you want to do this
activity). After breakfast you will go on a jungle trek. Discovery of a
new eco-system and bath in one the waterfalls that surrounds the
Malocas. Lunch at the lodge.
Then,
after a last bath in the river it is time to leave, farewell to the
Malocas and back in Manaus around 7:00pm.
Observation
Your
guide
might
switch the order of the activities depending on the weather conditions
and also on your physical shape. We guarantee you that every activity
will be done though. |
