After breakfast, we will head off to our remote jungle base in the heart of the Amazon rainforest on the banks of the Las Piedras river.  The journey will begin by road, and then continue by boat to our final destination. After unloading our kit, we will then walk up to our lodgings, the perfect position from which to explore the jungle yet have a comfortable retreat to come back to.  After lunch, provided by our in-house chef, we will then go on an orientation walk and get to know more about the flora and fauna of this incredible ecosystem.

Settling into our new home with the cacophony of rainforest sounds and the exquisite sights of iridescent humming birds flitting around as the sun sets we begin to fully enjoy the natural rhythms of the forest.

After a candlelit dinner, head to bed and sleep soundly in mosquito-netted comfort listening to the sounds of the forest.

Itineraries on any expedition in the jungle are a moveable feast as weather and general conditions will dictate the day to day, but you can expect:

• Dawn chorus with howler monkeys
• Early morning boat ride to observe wildlife
• Over 18km of jungle trails to explore and monitor wildlife 
• Visits to local macaw clay-lick where hundreds of birds gather daily
• Stream walks
• Checking camera traps for nocturnal animal sightings
• Hiking to waterfalls
• Pack rafting
• Forest bathing
• Visiting the ranger station and learning about their work
• Medicinal plants walk
• Piranha fishing
• Cayman spotting by boat at night
• Stargazing
• Reptile and amphibian identification 
• Sunset viewpoint
• Guided night walks
• Hammock time
• Time for personal reflection
• Being in the company of other wonderful women

This is a full immersion expedition, but please feel free to participate in as much or as little as you like.  

Our exclusive accommodation is in an incredible location in the heart of the rainforest with comfortable, rustic, cabin-style rooms, showers, toilets and solar powered lighting, fully supported by a team of cooks, guides and experts who will help bring the jungle to life for us!  

*Please note that a good level of fitness and stamina is required for this expedition which takes place in a hot and humid environment.

After a final jungle breakfast we pack up and head back down to our boat and begin the journey down river to Puerto Maldonado and the comforts of the Wasai Hotel with its swimming pool and close proximity to markets and restaurants, gathering again in the evening for a final farewell meal.

Breakfast at the Wasai, then onwards to our next destinations whether that be home or a continuation of your travels in Peru.
