A leadership group of 8 to 20 in a river lodge with no road and no signal: the most complete disconnection Colombia offers, two hours from the capital.
Amacayacu and the Ticuna communities, pink dolphins at Tarapoto, a three-country border by canoe; a chapter, not a whole programme, for a group that has seen the coast.
The register is expedition, not plenary: room inventory of 1,300 across Leticia limits a group to a few dozen, and Muisca says so before a brief is written.
Connectivity
Domestic: Bogotá. [FlightConnections]
Leticia is reached only by air, about two hours non-stop from Bogotá, and every international group connects there. Programmes move by boat from the town.
