Our destination to Chalalan Ecolodge took a 40-minute plane ride (19 passenger plane) on Amazonas from La Paz to Rurrenabaque. We stayed one night at the Hotel Oriental in Rurrenabque and then rode in a boat for 5 hours up the River Beni and River Tuichi. A two mile hike up from the river led us to a magical place! On this adventure we traveled with Sharon Schauss and Danny and Margaret Richards. Our guide, Jovani, was exceptional with his knowledge. We learned so much as we traveled through the rainforest and learned about all the wonders of flora and fauna.
