Because of its privileged position as a triple frontier and being very close to a tributary river Javary, Leticia/Tabatinga can serve as the perfect base for eco-tourist activities as well as for the studies of wildlife and flora in the Amazon region. It can also be the perfect starting point for visiting indigenous tribes such as: the Tikunas, Yaguas, Huitotos and Boras in the Amazonas. On the Yavary river you can find the Yaguas and Mayorunas.
Close to Leticia you can also find the National Park of Amacayacu which is located on the Colombian territory. On the Yavary River there is also a natural Reserve. The ribera peruana is also a Zone with virgin tropical forest. Amongst others in the ribera peruana the Cayaru river can be found.
Leticia/Tabatinga also greets 2 or 3 tourist cruises in the season between March and April such as the MV Vistamar, MV Andrea, MV Alexander Van humboldt, Rio Amazonas, MV Bremen, MV Le Levant. Our celebrity guests also include the infamous Mr. Bill Gates.
