Trinidad Guided Tour + Mercado Campesino

At the arranged time, we will collect you from your accommodation to commence our exploration of Trinidad, the capital of Beni department.

During our visit, we'll stop by key places that are popular among the locals, including the Central Plaza, the exterior of the colonial cathedral, and the Flag Plaza. As we roam these areas, you will gain insights into the city's rich history, rooted in one of the Jesuit missions set up in the Moxos region. We will touch upon its pre-Hispanic, colonial, and republican narratives.

Our next destination is the San Juan stream, which meanders through Trinidad. There, by its banks, we might catch glimpses of lizards and capybaras, the latter being the world's largest rodent, with some individuals weighing over 132 pounds (60 kilograms)!

The adventure continues at the Mercado Campesino, where you will discover the arts and crafts traditions specific to the region. Among the market's offerings are local handicrafts including hats and handbags, in addition to distinctive elixirs and medicinal products crafted from Amazonian resources.

You will have ample opportunity to wander through the market and indulge in some shopping prior to returning to your hotel. We anticipate being back around 1 hour and 30 minutes after the initial pickup.
