Venture into the Amazonian forest after dark with an expert naturalist guide, discovering the nocturnal world of poison-dart frogs, tree boas, giant spiders, and glowing fungi that most travellers never see. A Tripadvisor top-rated operator with a 4.4 score.
What to expect
As the equatorial sun drops, your guide equips you with headlamps and leads you into a forested reserve on Macapá's outskirts. The forest transforms at night: leaf-cutter ant columns march across the path, caimans' eyes reflect in nearby pools, and tree frogs chorus from every branch. Your naturalist interprets every sound and sighting with genuine expertise, making this as educational as it is thrilling. The walk typically lasts 2–3 hours and can be combined with a riverside dinner at the ecocamping facility.
Good to know
Long sleeves, long trousers, and closed-toe shoes are mandatory. Apply DEET-based repellent liberally before departure. Confirm logistics with the operator regarding transfer from the pier (approx. 25–30 minutes). Departs after 6:30 pm; check your ship's all-aboard time before booking an evening excursion. Small groups of 6–8 maximum ensure a personal experience.
