Once you begin scratching the surface, you discover there are so many things to do and see while waiting for your boat out of Leticia. Of course, there are tours into the jungle, visiting Parque Nacional Natural Amaracayu and Isla de los Monos. On the Brazilian and Peruvian sides of the rivers are jungle lodges where you can hang for a few days. You can canoe or drop a fishing line in the tributaries or at Lagos Yahuarcacas, where you can see the world’s largest water lily. In Leticia is Museo Etnográfico del Hombre Amazónico and free weekly movies at the university. On the road to Tarapacá are Serpentario Armero-Guayabal, AmaZOOnas and the Tikuna and Huitoto “kilometer” villages. Puerto Nariño and Lago Tarapoto, home of the pink dolphin, are just a few hours away.
