What is Pink River Dolphin Encounter & Jungle Trek Combo like?

Pink River Dolphin Encounter & Jungle Trek Combo

Swim alongside the legendary boto — the Amazon's mystical pink river dolphin — in the dark waters of the Rio Negro, then disappear into primary rainforest with a specialist naturalist guide for a trek through cathedral-canopy jungle. This is the Amazon as it exists in dreams.

What to expect

You depart by motor canoe into the inky black waters of the Rio Negro, arriving at a secluded backwater where boto dolphins are known to congregate. Your naturalist guide eases you into the warm river — life jackets provided — for a face-to-face encounter with these extraordinary pink creatures. You then head ashore into dense primary rainforest, trekking beneath a canopy alive with howler monkeys, toucans, and morpho butterflies. Your guide identifies medicinal plants, points out camouflaged insects, and explains the intricate web of Amazonian ecology. A traditional riverside lunch is included.
