3-Day Amazon Jungle Tour from Leticia
This page is for travelers starting the tour the day after arriving in Leticia. Three days of river travel, jungle walks, sloth spotting, pink dolphins, Tikuna community contact and nights with real rest in a private room.
High water level season or low water level season
The Amazon changes a lot through the year, so this tour adjusts with the water. The core route stays strong in both seasons, but the first-day activity and the pace of movement shift with the landscape.
High water level season
Late January to early June
- Kayaking through flooded jungle routes
- More water access in forest channels
- Lotus flowers and reserve scenery feel larger
- Slower, deeper water movement
Low water level season
Late June to early January
- Piranha fishing at Lake Correo
- Firmer trails for jungle walking
- More exposed riverbanks and sand areas
- Clearer separation between jungle and water routes
Full 3-day itinerary
Choose the season that matches your travel dates. The Peru route, sloth spotting, Tikuna community visit and dolphin watching remain central in both versions.

FAQ for the 3-day tour
What is the difference between the high water level and low water level season route?
High water level season runs from late January to early June and opens kayaking plus deeper flooded channels. Low water level season runs from late June to early January and shifts the first activity toward piranha fishing and firmer jungle walking. The main wildlife and community core remains in both.
Will I really have a private room?
Yes. This route includes a private room with private bathroom, fan and electricity, which makes the 3-day plan much more comfortable after long days outside.
What food is included?
Meals are local and full-board. We can adapt to vegetarian, vegan and allergy-aware diets if you tell us in advance when booking.
Is this the best tour if I want wildlife and culture together?
Yes. It is our strongest mixed route because it combines seasonal nature experiences, dolphins, sloths, Peru, Tikuna community time and more river hours than the shorter plan.
How do I pay for the tour?
You can confirm availability by WhatsApp and then pay with the methods your operation already accepts, including card, transfer or local payment options.
