Ubicación privilegiada. Entorno maravilloso y personal increíble. El guía Lucho (alias: primo, suplente, gusano) y Norbey grandes profesionales y buenas personas. Te hacen sentir como en casa, aún estando en la selva. Y como olvidar la comida de Rosita, buenísimo. Un lugar mágico que esperamos volver a visitar pronto!

Nada, todo perfecto.

When we decided to go to the Amazonas region in Colombia we were hoping for a real jungle experience, to be surrounded by nature and to see animals. But we didn't expect the amazing and unforgettable time we would have at Reserva Tucuchira. To get there by boat and then later walk to the lodge from the river takes a while, but is already an experience in itself as you walk directly into the jungle. We were welcomed very warmly and instantly felt very safe and comfortable. The accomodation is basic (no electricity, shower with saved rain water outside) but that's part of what makes it great and authentic: we had a nice double room with a big bed + mosquito net and waking up with a direct view into the jungle so we could see monkeys from our bed :-). The food is nice and they really tried to make us enjoy our stay (they even made extra veggie options although being a vegetarian is not common in Colombia). We also felt very welcome in the community of Santa Sofia that is the village close to the lodge and the people there told us a lot about their culture as indigenous and how they try to preserve their language and rituals. They even invited us to celebrate new years eve with them in the community. We could really feel how much they love their home and the nature and we fell in love with it too! There are a lot of different tours offered and the guides always take care to give you the best possible experience. Our highlight was camping in the jungle in hammocks where they cooked over the open fire for us as well as going kayaking on the Amazon river to see pink dolphins. If you want to disconnect and really feel what its like to live in the Amazonas this is exactly the right place for you!

Really an extraordinary experience. In the middle of the rain forest 30 to 40 mins away from Santa Sofía by foot The stuff is very friendly. The food is very good. You can do a lot of different activities. But be aware that the guides only speak spanish. My best experience in Colombia so far. Ten out of ten :)

We enjoyed the forest setting, far enough from town to have a jungle feel, with lots of birds, frogs, and butterflies. The food was good, if simple, and portions were generous. The guided tours of the surrounding forest and rivers were magical, and we saw lots of river dolphins.

The lodge itself is a bit ramshackle, but generally clean. Beware of the very steep steps up to the 2nd floor rooms and down to the toilets. In wet season you have to take a short boat ride from the Amazon River bank to the lodge (instead of sending one of their larger boats to meet our party of 5, they sent a boy in a small wooden boat). Otherwise, a modest investment in mosquito netting, toilet seats, shower heads, napkins, and cutlery would make for a much more comfortable stay.
