The tour is very well organized. The trip to the port in Nanay is in an open "chicken bus." To get to the boat you fly through a poor neighborhood. The two-hour boat trip on the Amazon to the Capinuri Lodge is entertaining. There is a stop at a stall belonging to the indigenous Yama tribe. Despite the commercial interest, it is quite interesting. The Capinuri Lodge is very basic accommodation. There are mosquito nets, cold water and electricity for a few hours when the generator is running. You can get a fan for your room, but of course it won't work at night without electricity. It is 30'C with 100% humidity. Starlink Internet works well when the electricity is on. We couldn't sleep the first night because the electricity was being used for an incredibly loud music box until 1 a.m. (complaining didn't help). Our guide Alan made up for the lodge's shortcomings with fantastic tours through the forest. Overall, worthwhile.

It was a really great experience. We saw lots of exotic animals and learned a lot about plants. The guides were super friendly and knew all the animals and plants and explained a lot about them and answered questions. Since I was the only one who had booked a 5-day tour at the time, some of the tours were in small groups or even just two people. I thought that was great. I had the constant impression that the guides wanted to teach and show us a lot about nature. My guide was Christian and sometimes Anthony. Friendly and competent people. I really enjoyed the time and would do it again anytime!

The night hike in the Amazon jungle was amazing! The animal shelter and Monkey Island were also wonderful experiences. The lodge was perfect, considering it is located in the Amazon, offering Wi-Fi, a bar, and three meals a day. The rooms were decent, each with its own bathroom. The only downside was that there was no hot water. Additionally, our room didn’t have electricity because it was newly built, but all the other rooms had power.

It was first class. Christian was always there for us and explained everything to us very well. We felt very comfortable and were very satisfied.

various and interesting activities. good accommodations. the rooms could be a little better
