External Reviews
The Telegraph, UK:
Uakari, in the Brazilian Amazon, is a remote, 10-room jungle lodge floating in flooded jungle, far away from any urban centre. Here you have a good chance of seeing caimans, sloths, howler monkeys and the rare pink river-dolphin.
The lodge is run as a community conservation venture and employs people from local tribes.
Accommodation is simple but comfortable, and consists of floating cabins with hammocks on the verandahs. If you can drag yourself away from the humid torpor and your swinging hammock, there are excursions in canoes to spot wildlife, visit local villages, buy handicrafts and even fish for piranha.
