The main entrance to the Cuyabeno Wildlife Reserve and our last moment with the civilization. We continue by motorized canoe down the Cuyabeno river for about 2 and a half hours until we reach the Nicky Amazon Lodge. With a little luck we’ll be able to observe monkeys and bird species along the way. The Cuyabeno river is narrow in the upper part and this allows you to experience wildlife up close. A welcome cocktail waiting for your arrival at the lodge. Later, you will have time to rest and go on with your first activity, enjoying the surroundings. Before dinner, we will go on a night walk to watch for different species of insects, spiders, tree frogs and others. After dinner, your bilingual guide will tell you about the activities for the following days.
