Our Recommendation
7.5

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers the most consistent views of the massive winding river systems and the expansive wetlands of the Llanos de Moxos before crossing into the dense Pando jungle.

Left Side Highlights
7.5
🌊

Mamoré Meanders

Spectacular aerial views of the Mamoré River's complex S-curves and sediment-rich waters immediately after takeoff.

💧

Llanos de Moxos

Vast tropical savannas and seasonal wetlands that create a unique mosaic of water and greenery.

🌿

Rio Beni Basin

Broad perspectives of the Beni River watershed, a critical artery for the Bolivian Amazon.

☁️

Western Horizons

On exceptionally clear days, the very distant silhouettes of the sub-Andean foothills can be spotted to the far west.

Opt for the left side on mid-morning flights to keep the sun behind you, ensuring better contrast for photos of the winding rivers. Look for the 'oxbow' lakes—abandoned river loops—which are clearly visible from cruising altitude.

Right Side Highlights
7.2
🌅

Rainforest Sunrise

Ideal for early morning departures to witness the sun rising over the deep green canopy of the Amazon.

🏘️

Riberalta Flyover

A high-altitude view of Riberalta, located at the confluence of the Beni and Madre de Dios rivers.

🇧🇷

International Border

The Rio Acre comes into view near the end of the flight, serving as the winding border between Bolivia and Brazil.

🌀

Cochas and Lagoons

Numerous hidden jungle lagoons, known as cochas, appear as dark blue spots within the dense forest.

The right side is best for seeing the urban layout of Riberalta and the final approach over the Rio Acre near Cobija. If flying in the late afternoon, this side may experience significant sun glare, so keep the window shade handy.
