With the option of either a morning tour after breakfast or an afternoon tour, each offering a different perspective on the rainforest as the habitat changes throughout the day. Glide through remote backwater creeks and lagoons where the local wildlife is abundant. Among the hundreds of bird, mammal, and reptile species that inhabit the area, you’ll likely see troupes of spirited howler monkeys nibbling on tender leaves and northern jacana waterfowl perched atop islands of water hyacinth in search of insects and miniature shrimp.

The afternoon tour takes on a relaxed pace as egrets and tiger herons move towards their nests, while the white-faced capuchin monkeys keep the party going until sunset. As the afternoon light dims, the cacophony of the forest comes to a climax, and then all becomes quiet.
