We  start our in  Maturín.  We  travel  by  road  to  the  Buja River,   and   then  by  water-taxi  to  our  camp–Boca  de  Tigre  Lodge. The  camp   is  located  in  the  middle  of  dense  rainforest,  on  one  of  the many tributaries of the Orinoco river.
From  the  comfort of  your  water  taxi  you  can  observe  a  wide  variety of flora and fauna - water hyacinth, pink dolphins, giant river otters, anacondas, and sideneck turtles.  Along  the riverbanks you will see Indian villages with their unique raised dwellings (palafitos), built over the river's edge. Upon arrival at the camp you will be shown to   your  private  cabins,  and  afforded  some time to relax before lunch and  your first excursion.

After lunch, it’s time to take a leisurely walk through the rainforest that surrounds the Orinoco. Here you will experience the wild, natural habitat of the virgin jungle. Once under the canopy, your Warao guide will point out edible plants which you will get a chance to taste, or if your stomach is strong enough you can try the juicy grubs that can be found living in the dead trees and vegetation!

When you return to the camp, you will be able to relax before dinner. If you wish, you may take a swim in the river by the camp, or just sit and observe one of the fabulous delta sunsets. After a delicious dinner you will have the chance of enjoying the silence of the Orinoco river from the harbor of the camp.
