✔︎ Upon arrival at Leticia Airport, you receive a warm welcome and private transfer, along with an introduction and awareness session about jungle rules and ways of relating to the forest.
✔︎ Lunch connects you with Amazonian inspirations. In the afternoon, you take part in a weaving workshop using natural fibers and dyes, beginning with a ritual of permission and gratitude.
✔︎ The day ends with rest in a luxury boutique lodge integrated into the jungle, with access to a maloca, natural trails, and a jacuzzi.
