Emberá Village
Itinerary
Early pick up and transfer to Rio Piedra on the Caribbean side.
Here, you will board a motorized dugout canoe and travel up Rio Piedra to the Embera Errebache indigenous village. On the way to the Embera village the boat takes you through the rainforest. Along the river, you may be able to spot Jacanas, Great Egret, Green Kingfishers, along with Keel-billed Toucans and Motmots.
Once at the Embera village, you will be greeted with a brief explanation of their history and traditions, a performance of tribal dances, drums, and the Embera traditional lunch. You will learn about their relationship with nature, their handcrafts will be available for purchase, and you will also be able to experience having your body painted with the traditional “jagua”, a natural dye used by the village members to adorn their bodies.
