Warao Indians and diverse wildlife
Daily from Puerto Ordaz
4 days, 3 nights
The banks of the Orinoco and its tributaries are sparsely-inhabited by the Warao indians and the only means of transport is by river. The Orinoco Delta Lodge is located 4 hours from Puerto Ordaz by a combination of ferry, car and motorised canoe and accommodation is in simple cabins with bathroom.
The English-speaking guides offer a flexible itinerary that includes canoe trips, bird-watching, piranha-fishing and a visit to various local indian settlements. The delta has a diverse biosphere with an abundance of flora and fauna, particularly bird-life. There is the option of spending one of the following nights in a more remote and basic camp.
Our comment
Rooms are large and open – no walls, only mosquito screens, and basic – with beds, one small table and electricity from 6am until 11pm – but overall you will have the full experience of being in the midst of the jungle without being necessarily exposed.
