Book an early morning flight to avoid the heavy afternoon convection clouds that often obscure the ground. The left side is preferred for spotting the 'tepuis' (tabletop mountains) in the distance. Bring a high-speed camera as the plane usually flies at a lower altitude on this regional route, making for fast-moving scenery.

The right side is excellent for the final approach into Araracuara, where you can often see the river narrowing into the canyon. Note that the sun will be on the right side for morning southbound flights, so expect some glare. Polarized sunglasses are highly recommended to cut through the reflection on the river surfaces.
