Itinerary
On arrival at La Lorenza, begin with a 15-minute forest walk leading to the Paraná River’s shore, where double sit-on-top kayaks await. Paddle gently for about an hour, taking in breathtaking views of the forest and river. When conditions allow, enjoy a refreshing swim in the river’s calm waters.
After kayaking, return to land and embark on a one-hour interpretive jungle walk. Discover the interconnected world of fauna and flora, medicinal plants, plant intelligence, and the secrets of seed dispersal. Learn about the vibrant ecosystem, from lianas and fungi to endemic birds and lichens.
The experience concludes with a delightful lunch (AM) or early dinner (PM) at La Lorenza’s main house. Relax and savor regional flavors while enjoying a chat with the hosts and a stunning view of the surrounding jungle.

DATE CHANGE POLICY

PLAN B POLICY
In case of storms with electrical activity or heavy rainfall that jeopardize the safety of individuals, and in the event of environmental conditions that prevent navigation on the river:
At La Lorenza, we do not cancel excursions due to rain. We are located in an eco-region called the Atlantic Rainforest, meaning intermittent rainfall occurs frequently, providing the jungle with renewed vitality.
For excursions involving the river, we wait for the rain to pass or proceed with rain ponchos. However, if we receive an alert for electrical activity from the Coast Guard or if there is heavy rainfall that puts people’s lives at risk, we will suspend the river activity for safety reasons. The activity will be replaced by the “La Lorenza Jungle and Culture” excursion (mate experience) on solid ground as a Plan B.
Plan B is also applied in case of environmental phenomena (e.g., rising or lowering river levels) that prevent navigation on the river.

It was an unforgettable trip
"It was an unforgettable trip. All Thanks to the lovely guide JESS. She gave us such close encounters with the Iguazu wild and such deep insights into the natural floral and fauna of iguazu....I can never thank you enough. She also introduced me to the lovely amazon chocolates sold at Iguazu and told me that Princess Diana had stayed at my hotel. For our boat ride she gave us pro tips to have max fun and also asked photographer to take our propwr photos as we are keen to buy it. Without her Iguazu memories wouldn't be so great.

Wonderful experience
"
It was a wonderful experience. We appreciated the tour guide being able to translate in English what he was saying. We didn't feel left out. It was a great experience for the price. The pick up was right on time and they even accommodated getting us from an airbnb. Getting across the border was easy. The tour throughout was very informative and was able to see and experience it all. The ride back was just as smooth
