Amazon Tupana

Remembering that you are visiting the jungle and not a zoo. Seeing animals is not guaranteed, but there is a chance.
The journey to the hotel begins with an adventure through the meeting of the waters of the Negro and Solimões rivers, the two largest rivers in the Amazon, which together form the grandiose Amazon River, followed by the 178-kilometer road BR 319 which connects with the famous Transamazônica highway (road that connected the state of Amazonas to the rest of the country, today it is partially deactivated).
During the journey to the Amazon Tupana Lodge we will observe the Victoria Regia and birds (at certain times of the year), in a region of farms along the road with the jungle in the background.
What to bring: Comfortable clothes, long pants, shorts, socks, sandals, sneakers or boots suitable for hiking in the jungle, bathing suit, sunscreen, flashlight, binoculars , repellent, sunglasses, hat or cap and raincoat.
Baggage allowance: 15 kg per person.
Power: Electric power is 110V, obtained through a diesel generator at the following times: from 12:00 to 15:00 and from 18:00 to 7:30.
