Explore the famous Belén Market with a local guide who will introduce you to the hidden world of Paquito Passage, known for its natural medicines, Amazonian herbs, tobacco, and ayahuasca preparations. Then board a traditional canoe to navigate through the floating city of Belén, where houses rest on the water and local families live in harmony with the river. The experience lasts about 2.5 to 3.5 hours, with small-group or private options, offering personalized attention in English or Spanish.
