You get picked up at your hotel at 4:40 a.m. First we go to the agency and after that to the harbor. At the harbor we take the speedboat at 6:00 a.m. We are going upriver in a really relaxed speedboat with comfortable seats, TV to see movies, breakfast, lunch and dinner served in the speedboat. In the back of the speedboat you have a deck where you can relax, get some fresh air, and view the Amazon river. It’s also possible to see animals on the way like monkeys, and a lot of birds. We arrive in Tefé at 8:00 p.m. We will sleep in a hotel in Tefé tonight.

We wake up early and go to the harbor. Here we take the speedboat from Tefé at 6:00 a.m., arriving in Maraã at 12:00 p.m. We will have lunch in Maraã and do a small walking tour of the town.

At 1:00 p.m. we will leave for the jungle tour. We will bring a big canoe with roof and small canoes on the side, to go deep inside the small Amazon rapids. We will sail upriver and arrive at Lake Comapi around 6:00 p.m.

Here we will set up camp in the jungle with hammocks and mosquito net. We will do spearfishing to catch some dinner, and after that go back to the lakeside camp, make a campfire and prepare this evening’s dinner. After dinner we will relax before going to bed.

Day 3
We get up at 5:30 a.m. to watch the sunrise over Lake Comapi. After that we have breakfast at 7:00 a.m., before we continue our journey to the rapids, which is three hours deeper inside the Amazon rainforest. When the Amazon rivers become too small for the big motorboat, we will switch to the small canoes. On our way to the rapids we look for animals like monkeys, giant otters, macaws, rodents and caimans. We will also do some bow fishing on the way.

We arrive at the rapids around 11:00 a.m. Here we will set up camp, relax and have a swim in the rapids. We will go spear fishing in the evening and hunting for rodents. After hunting we will get back to the camp. We will sleep in the camp tonight to the sounds of the waterfalls.

Day 4
We will eat breakfast by the Compai Rapids. After breakfast we will go trekking for four hours until we arrive at the Three lakes (Trés lagos). Here we will hunt for animals such as the Paca (Cuniculus Paca) and Agouti (Cutia). On the trekking we will also discover other animals and plants. We will look for medicine plants of the Amazon. Many of these plants have been used by the native indigenous people for millennia. We will try to spot animals such as snakes, reptiles, monkeys, toucans and other birds.

This part of the Amazon rainforest doesn’t see many tourists, and as such there is a much larger abundance of wildlife than closer to Manaus. This means that your chance of spotting one of these wonderful animals is very high.

After trekking and hunting we return to our base camp arriving back around 1:00 p.m. Here we have lunch and after that you have some time to relax and swim. At 4:00 p.m. we go bow fishing and spearfishing for our dinner. We will come back to base camp and prepare our dinner before settling in for the night.

Day 5
canoeing, fishing and hunting. We take just the hammocks with us and the bare necessities for one night. We are leaving at 9:00 a.m. and we are gonna stay the whole day and night deeper in the jungle, far from the base camp. We take the small canoes with the fishing rods and spears, and we go paddling upriver on a wild canoe adventure, up the small creeks of the Amazon. We will canoe, hunt, fish and make our own lunch.

At evening time is the chance to see monkeys, rodents, birds, giant wild otters, and other animals. We have dinner at our new camp, and we sleep this night around this wild jungle area. At that moment you are really deep inside the Amazon jungle. Probably the farthest you’ve ever been from any civilization. At night we go out in canoes to hunt rodents, and come back to the camp to relax and sleep.

Accommodation: Jungle camp in the deepest part of the jungle

Day 6
We wake up and have breakfast at 7:00 a.m. After breakfast we are canoeing back to our rapids camp, but on the way we do some fishing to catch our lunch. We will arrive at the camp around 12:00 p.m. Here we will have lunch before preparing to take down the camp and go back to the big Comapi Lake.

We’re gonna travel back in small canoes until we arrive back to the motorboat, which we will then switch to. We should be back at Comapi Lake around 4:00 p.m Here we’re gonna look for a riverside where we gonna set up the camp for the night. We are going to fish for the big black Piranha fish as well as other types of Piranha. We will see the sunset at the lakeside and do some bird watching. After that we will prepare our dinner and relax.

After dinner we’ll sail out to find and catch a wild caiman. The guide will catch the caiman and provide you with information about these prehistoric animals. After that the guide will put it back in the water. He won’t hurt the caiman at any point. After this intense night activity we will return back to the campsite to relax and sleep.

We have breakfast at 7:00 a.m. After breakfast we go to the airport in Tefé. Our flight leaves at 10:00 a.m. The flight time to Manaus is one hour, so we arrive in Manaus at 11:00 a.m. This is the end of the adventure!

Day 9
The flight leaves from Tefé at 9 o'clock in the morning. Flight time is approximately one hours so we will be back in Manaus at 10:00 AM.

The flight leaves just enough time to get the last panoramic perspectives of the amazing Amazon rainforest. You will be able to see the characteristic shape of how the Amazon river snakes through the jungle.

Landing in Manaus will mark the end of our adventure together this time. Maybe you will come with me for a new adventure in the future.
