What you can expect

  • Day 1:

    Begin your adventure at 9:00 AM with a pickup from Hostal Casa de las Palmas in Leticia. Travel by land to the Tacana River, situated 11 kilometres from Leticia. Then, embark on a guided hike of approximately 2 hours (4 km) through the jungle, eventually reaching a Huitoto maloca (traditional indigenous house).

    Once at the maloca, rest while the guides prepare lunch following traditional customs. After the meal, learn about the mambe process and understand the significance of the coca plant for the Huitoto ethnic group, deeply rooted in their ancestral tradition.

    As night falls, embark on a fascinating jungle walk, exploring and observing the mysterious nocturnal life of the jungle for approximately 1 or 2 hours. Later, return to the maloca to spend the night, enjoying a well-deserved rest in a hammock.

    Day 2:

    In the morning, after breakfast, embark on an exciting hike through the lush jungle leading to the border between Colombia and Brazil. This journey will enhance your chances of spotting a variety of local wildlife, with an estimated duration of 2 to 3 hours.

    Upon completing this excursion, return to the maloca for a comforting lunch and prepare for the return hike along the jungle until reaching the road. There, a comfortable van will be waiting to take you back to Leticia.
