The Orinoco delta extends over 40.000km2 and 275 river arms lead the water from the Orinoco to the Atlantic. The delta is very rich in wildlife: parrots, toucans, hoatzin birds, piranhas and caimans. The Warao Indians literally the Canoe People‚- are the native inhabitants of the delta. With a population of 24,000, the Warao constitute the second largest indigenous tribe in the country. Family groups reside in palafitos (wooden houses raised on stilts) along the banks of the river, and spend most of their daily lives in canoes fishing the nearby caños and hunting and gathering in the surrounding forests.

There are macaws, toucans, caymans howler monkeys, dolphins as well as, butterflies. There is also a collection of fauna indigenous to the orinoco delta. When we arrive, there will be a small tour of the camp to familiarise yourself with your surroundings.

After lunch we take an excursion by boat to visit the Warao indians and learn about this native South American tribal community. Later, a Warao guide will locate an ideal place in the jungle where you will take a walk and get a feeling of life inside this unforgiving environment. You will notice pungent odours weaving their way through a tapestry of crawling plants and giant trees racing towards the sky for sunlight. At the close of day we will witness an inspiring sunset over the orinoco delta, then return to camp for dinner.
