Very enjoyable time and a memorable experience in the Amazon. Our tour guide, Adriel was friendly and had good English. He provided good information on the animals and fauna in the area. We also felt very safe with him as a guide whilst in the jungle and on the river. Breakfast, lunch and dinner were provided with big portions and tasty food options. We caught and ate Piranhas that were cooked nicely by Adriel. The company gave us the option to tailor our amazon rainforest experience. As requested, we got to swim in the Amazon river, see pink and grey dolphins and we did jungle Treks both day and night. We also got the chance to stargaze on the river at night which was amazing! We saw a range of animals such as alligators, sloths, monkeys, snakes, spiders, frogs, piranas, scorpions and many species of birds.

The staff are exceptional. My guide Joel came and picked me up from the airport and took me to the lodge in safety, which is approximately 2-3 hours travel. During my stay I felt completely safe as a solo traveller. The food was fresh and amazing every time with freshly made juices from local fruit in every meal. The lodge is beautiful and the rooms feature your own balcony with an incredible view. Regarding the facilities, the lodge is located on the river and is built with natural materials, so of course, expect to see insects. You are in the jungle after all! The mosquito nets do a really good job though, so I didn't have any trouble sleeping. Expect to hear wildlife noises from your room, although I quite enjoyed waking up with the sound of birds every day. The activities were super organised, and they offer a big variety for day and night experiences. All of them are wildlife experts, you get a personal guide, a personalised tour and a boat driver at all times. Don't forget to tip your guides! They will totally deserve it as well. They try their hardest to make your experience an amazing one! If you are crazy about wildlife, I recommend Joel. He could spot all sorts of animals from a distance, so I got to see a lot of different species. Both, with Wilson, the canoe driver, they had amazing coordination. I totally recommend the lodge and I would do it all over again. When you get there, you will see there are other lodges as well, which seemed to target tourists more, but not sure either. I am happy I chose this one and got to support their community!
