Lake Yarinacocha Excursion

We'll pick you up at 9 am at your hotel in Pucallpa and take you to Puerto Callao, the capital of the Peruvian district of Yarinacocha.

From there, we'll board a boat to tour Lake Yarinacocha, home to various species of animals and plants of the Amazon rainforest. If we're lucky, we may see local dolphins.

After a two-hour ride, we'll visit a Shipibo-Konibo Indigenous community, which preserves ancestral customs. During the visit, we will see their traditional handicrafts, such as garb and ceramics.

After leaving the community, we'll continue sailing across Lake Yarinacocha, making two stops: one at Caserío 11 de Agosto, where local women create objects with vegetable fibers, and another at San José Beach.

Finally, we'll hike through the jungle to observe local plants and animals. After the hike, we'll return to Puerto Callao, where the bus will take you back to your hotel in Pucallpa, with arrival scheduled for 1 pm.
