If you really want to experience the Amazonas with its espectacular energy you have to stay here. You can't be closer to the nature. The huge trees, the monkeys who pass by the trees almost every afternoon. I stayed there twice already and I love it. In front of Omshanty, there is an indigenous community, where you can learn many... More

Arriving in Leticia alone as an American speaking little Spanish I was initially frightened, and doubted my trip. But my fears were quickly allayed once I met Kike, and he assured me he would look after me - he did not let me down. He's a gracious host, and helped me to organize exactly the tours and jungle trips I... More

OMshanty - and Kiki.. is without shadow of a doubt THE place to stay when you visit Leticia. For the peace, tranquillity, the comfort, the helpfulness, the connection with the local community and for the type of people that visit there. I visited OMshanty in June 2011, my first time in the Amazon. I had an amazing time, went on... More

It was our first stop in Colombia and a very good choise. The bamboo cabins are in the very middle of this incredible nature, you wake up bu birds singing and drink your coffee in the hammack on the terrace.

I had gone on a solo trip organized at Omshanty in 2010 to a tall forest area (Calderone region)... More

Located 11km outside of the town on KM11, run by a guy from Spain who knows a lot about the jungle and can organize tours for you if you want. A bed in one of the shared cabins is $15,000 pesos and a space to hang your hammock if you have one is only $5,000 pesos and has a roof... More

My first trip to the Amazon could not have been any better. I’m an individual who loves to travel and have visited many locations around the world but nothing I have done can match the amazing experience I had in Leticia and the Amazon. Most importantly, I owe it all to the wonderful services provided by my new friends at... More

Our first reaction was - breathtaking! The lodge is 11 km away from Leticia in the middle of the small jungle. You wake up from the squeaking of parrots. It is so beautiful! What a perfect option! Then a disaster struck! I woke up after our first night with lots of mosquito bites on the side of my body. Hm,... More
