If you're looking to connect with nature and you're in Leticia, you can't miss this 2-day tour to the indigenous community of La Libertad. We'll discover the charms of the forest in the far south of Colombia!
Description
Day 1
This 2-day tour will start at your accommodation in Leticia. At the indicated time we'll pick you up and head to the heart of the Amazon jungle.
We'll board a boat that will take us along the Amazon River, traveling approximately 43 kilometres (26 miles) for an hour and a half, passing charming communities on the riverbank.
On arrival at the indigenous community of La Libertad, we'll visit the chagra, the community's crops, to learn about the importance of agriculture for the Yagua people and their sustainable practices.
Next, we'll take a nature walk through the Amazon rainforest for approximately 1 hour, searching for frogs, tarantulas, and monkeys.
A traditional lunch will be served around midday. After lunch, you'll have time to rest before a canoe ride on the Amazon, where, with luck, we may see a sunset over the river.
We'll finish activities around 5:30 pm and return to the community for dinner. After 8 pm, you'll enjoy a special chat with an elder about the culture and history of the people.
Day 2
After a restful night, we'll start the second day with breakfast at 8 am. Then, we'll participate in a crafts workshop with community experts.
After this experience, we'll say goodbye to the community and start our journey back to Leticia, with arrival scheduled for 11 am.
