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).

Dinner around 19h30.

At night, you will have the possibility to leave the lodge with your guide to “hunt” the alligators.

Day 2

After breakfast you will go on a jungle trek. Discovery of a new eco-system and bath in one the waterfalls that surround the Malocas. After lunch, you could rest a bit before leaving to fish piranhas. If you are successful you could taste them at dinner…

After dinner, maybe you will have the opportunity to hear some Caboclos or Indians stories around the fire.

DAY 3

Birds observation at sunrise (please ask to your guide if you are willing to do this activity). After breakfast you will go by canoe and then by trekking in the jungle (different eco system) to another waterfall where you can take a bath. Trek back to the lodge. After lunch you can enjoy a last bath in the river, a last canoe trip or just rest.

Farewell to the Malocas and arrival in Manaus around 7pm

 

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.
