On our way back to the lodge we will experiment the exciting "rodada fishing" and with a spotlight we will focus night animals that are commonly seen on the riverbanks.

Day 4 - This is the day to explore the Cururu River, a very distinguished region of the Amazon. Leaving early in the morning to Safari by Land Rover, we will pass through the low and high woodland. These are unexplored areas, seldom visited and very hard to find in the Amazon. On the way, we will pass by a region where there exists a high concentration of endemic bird species. After a short break we will leave by boat up Cururu River exploring the untouched place. This river is quite narrow and it divides itself into smaller rivers, some of which have crystal waters. Lunch will be served by the river at the Cururu Camp where guests can also find the famous black caiman that can measure up to 18 ft. in length. Returning in the evening will give visitors the opportunity to do some walking though the road followed by a Land Rover night trip in search of night animals.
