The Anakonda Cruise allows you to have authentic and mystical experiences of daily living in a river in the Amazon. Look closely at ancient local indigenous communities and also fascinating walks in the virgin jungle. All walks begin with a small motorized canoe trip, then by your own feet you will enter a jungle full of endemic flora and fauna. With a little luck, you can see toucans, lazy, pink river dolphins and perhaps many more animals, while the sun hides, giving a dream and reserved show for a few who decided to take a walk in the Anakonda.

  • Paddling by canoe to Piranha Lake in search of white caiman and Water monkey fish.
  • Observe up to hundreds of parrots descending on a “clay lick.”
  • Explore the waterways of the flooded Pañayacu Biological Corridor
  • Learn about traditions of indigenous Kichwa women
