El Calafate, Argentina
Night boat safari to spot caimans in Yacapana Creek
Iquitos · Peru
About this experience
After dark on Yacapana Creek the boat engine drops to a murmur and a torch beam sweeps the water's edge. It catches the eyes of a caiman, and frogs and insects fill the forest with sound. It is a quiet, slightly tense ride for anyone who wants to hear the jungle at night.
Seeing animals depends on luck, while listening to the forest is guaranteed. Staying quiet during the search usually means more sightings.
