4-Day Amazon Tour starting the same day you arrive
This page is for travelers who land in Leticia the same day and want to start the route immediately. In the morning, before leaving for Puerto Narino, we also do a visit to Tabatinga in Brazil. If your flight arrives earlier, we can leave Leticia at 12:00 PM. Otherwise the standard same-day departure is 2:00 PM. About two hours later you reach Puerto Narino and continue with jungle trekking to the reserve for lotus flowers and Pirarucu.
High water level season or low water level season
Days 1, 2 and 4 stay close in both seasons. Day 1 already includes jungle trekking to the reserve for lotus flowers and Pirarucu, while day 3 changes with the water level, shifting either toward kayaking through flooded jungle or piranha fishing on lower water routes.

Low water level season

FAQ for the same-day 4-day tour
Can I really start this tour the same day I arrive in Leticia?
Yes. This version is built for same-day arrivals. Your flight should land before 12:00 pm. In the morning, before leaving for Puerto Narino, we also include a visit to Tabatinga in Brazil. If it lands earlier, we can leave at 12:00 pm. Otherwise the standard departure is 2:00 PM.
What is the difference between the high water level and low water level season route?
Days 1, 2 and 4 remain broadly the same. Day 3 changes. High water level season runs from late January to early June and adds kayaking through flooded jungle routes. Low water level season runs from late June to early January and shifts day 3 toward piranha fishing on lower water routes.
What is the main difference between this same-day version and the 7:00 AM 4-day tour?
This same-day version is built for travelers arriving the same day, while the 7:00 AM version is for travelers who arrived the day before and can leave early in the morning. Day 1 is therefore different between the two versions, but both include meaningful jungle activity.
What happens on day 1 of the same-day version?
Day 1 includes airport meet and greet, a morning visit to Tabatinga in Brazil, the flexible same-day boat departure at 12:00 pm or 2:00 pm, arrival in Puerto Narino and jungle trekking to the reserve for lotus flowers and Pirarucu.
Can I still take the Avianca 5:50 pm flight on the last day?
Yes. We can finish the tour at 3:00 pm if you have the Avianca 5:50 pm flight, and we also give you the transfer to the airport. Ask for this when booking so the final day can be organized correctly.
