The trip approximately lasts 1.30h on a road of 90 kilometers (55 miles), totally asphalted. In Nauta, you will be embarked in PSAL boats to visit the confluence of the Ucayali and Marañón rivers, the head of the Amazon River.

Day Three, Four and Five: PACAYA SAMIRIA NATIONAL RESERVE (PSNR)

Jungle wild dawn. Birdwatching. Breakfast. Departure to the PSNR. During these days, we will explore the Yanayacu river area, in the PSNR. This area has been recently opened to tourism, so the fauna and flora is more abundant than in other areas. Chance to observe flora and fauna (pink and gray dolphins, aquatic birds, sloths, monkeys, and macaws). The first thing that gets the attention of the visitor is that the water of rivers and lakes reflects, with the fidelity of a mirror, the sky and the clouds, the vegetation of the shores and the big trees, that the visitor has the sensation of navigating through endless mirrors of waters. That is why the PSNR is known as the Jungle of the Mirrors. Activities include trekking in primary forest, observation of flora and fauna, excursions in lakes (swimming, Piranha fishing, canoe rides), visit to a riverbank village to know more about the lifestyle of the river people and their daily activities, nocturnal excursions to spot alligators and to hear the sounds of the night, among others. Accommodation is in tents, in river beaches or in the forest. On the afternoon of day 5, we will return to the lodge. Dinner. Night at PSAL.
