Unveiling the Amazon: A Journey of Discovery
Prepare to be captivated by the wonders of the Amazon rainforest with this unforgettable adventure! Our journey begins in Leticia, a vibrant town pulsating with life at the edge of the Amazon River. But Leticia is just the gateway; the real magic awaits just outside the city limits.
Into the Heart of the Rainforest:
Get ready to swap city streets for jungle trails. We'll whisk you away to kilometer 7 outside Leticia, where a breathtaking 3-hour hike awaits.

Your journey isn't just about nature; it's about cultural immersion. Along the way, we'll have the incredible opportunity to visit a settlement of the Huitoto indigenous tribe. Here, time seems to slow down. Step into their world and learn about their fascinating way of life, their traditions passed down through generations. This encounter offers a glimpse into a different perspective, a deeper appreciation for the rich tapestry of cultures woven into the fabric of the Amazon.
A Refreshing Interlude:
After your exhilarating trek, cool off with a refreshing dip in the crystal-clear waters of Tacana Creek. Imagine the feeling of cool water washing away the day's heat as you immerse yourself in the pristine beauty of the Amazon.
A Taste of the Amazon:
