    • Next, go to the floating village where all the houses, school, churches, bars, restaurants etc., are all built on logs to float on the lake.
    • Disembark at a floating fish farm and have an encounter with the biggest species of fish with scales in fresh water in the world, te famous pirarucu (arapaima gigas). Play with them with a fishing rod without hooks to not hurt them.
