Uakari Floating Lodge
Pousada Uacari
A community co-managed eco-lodge floating on the reserve's lake. It is the only regular place to stay in Mamirauá and the base for all tours.
Uakari Floating Lodge is run jointly by the Mamirauá Institute and the surrounding communities. Its guest rooms, restaurant and observation deck are all built on floating rafts connected by wooden walkways, rising and falling with the water level. It runs on solar power and treats its wastewater to minimize its impact on the flooded forest. The lodge only accepts package bookings, usually of 3, 4 or 7 nights. These include round-trip motorboat transfers from Tefé, three meals and a community guide. Each day offers morning and afternoon canoe trips, hikes or night tours, and there are evening lectures on the reserve's research. The motorboat trip from Tefé takes about 1.5–2 hours. The rooms are simple, power supply and internet are limited, so bring your own mosquito protection. Book months in advance during peak season and high-water periods.
