Courses

We offer a full week stay in the jungle (5 days / 4 nights).

Accommodation and meals: With a capacity of 50 people, the Yarina Lodge offers 20 huts with private bathrooms. The huts are made with typical materials such as: bamboo on the walls, the palm of pambil on the floor and the toquilla straw on the roof. All these materials are provided by indigenous people who plant these materials to sell and earn money. During eight hours per day (8am – 12m) (6pm – 10pm) electricity is provided for the whole lodge. The dining room and social area are located in the main cabin which is a nice place to rest, make friends or simply enjoy the view.
