Float the Amazon in Bolivia 2025
The waters of the Amazon river surprise with pink dolphins and the banks reveal splendid jungle abounding with birds and mammals
Best time: May–October
Canoeing along the Amazon river during the dry season you are not likely to experience white water rafting thrill, but rather partake in quiet but even more rewarding wildlife safari. Prepare to see unique inhabitants of Bolivian jungles, namely river pink-coloured dolphins, as well as birds and mammals who gather along the river banks especially in between May and October. The boat trip adventure typically starts in Rurrenabaque and continues in the Pampas del Yucuma and the Parque Nacional Madidi. Apart from floating, it usually involves guided walking in the jungles. However, if you opt for a faster ride, try wet season rafting tours that are available on many Bolivian rivers.
