Puerto Narino Trip
Description
Begin an exhilarating exploration of the Amazon with this excursion to Puerto Narino, a charming settlement that honors its indigenous heritage.
Description
Our journey kicks off at the specified meeting point located at the Leticia Boardwalk. Once gathered, we will board a vessel that will navigate the Amazon River, leading us to the picturesque Puerto Nariño, a town rich in cultural significance.
Upon arrival, we will set out to discover this captivating Colombian municipality with the support of a knowledgeable local guide. It's fascinating to learn that a majority of Puerto Nariño's residents are from indigenous communities. We will unveil these details while wandering through the picturesque streets, lush landscapes, and the charming pathways that border the serene Loretoyacu River.
Throughout our visit to Puerto Nariño, discussions will include the customs and traditions of the Ticuna, Cocama, and Yagua groups, who are the primary residents of this Amazon region. As we delve into the area, you'll understand why this town is often referred to as "Colombia's natural crib."
Next, we will recharge with a traditional meal in Puerto Nariño. After dining, we will paddle a canoe along the Loretoyacu River, a region filled with wetlands recognized globally for its remarkable biodiversity. These dark waters are a habitat for crocodiles, piranhas, anacondas, piracucu fish, and river dolphins.
In conclusion, we will return to the boat and make our way back to Leticia. The tour will conclude as we bid farewell at the initial meeting point.
