Covering approximately 5.5 million square kilometres across nine countries, the Amazon is the world’s largest tropical rainforest and home to around 10% of its biodiversity, including over 1,500 species of birds. Brazil just happens to contain 60% of this vast ecosystem, made all the more luscious by the vast, coursing rivers, and inhabited by thousands upon thousands of unique creatures. Embark on guided hikes where three-toed sloths loll overhead and giant anteaters crunch through the undergrowth, cruise along one of the many waterways where pink dolphins and giant otters glide alongside you, or zoom through the canopy via zipline as toucans and tanagers take flight. After a day bursting with adventure, there’s no better feeling than retreating to your jungle lodge for a feast of rich Amazonian dishes as the forest swells with the sounds and sights of the night.

Where do we start…It could be the wildlife, it could be the scenery or the many methods of exploration, all of which are surreal and sensational.
The Amazon is home to over 200 distinct indigenous groups and paying a visit to one of these communities offers incredible insight into their unique ways of life. Why not join members of the community for a meal and hear their stories.
The Amazon faces significant challenges including deforestation and mining, and making the right choice when it comes to your tourism dollars does your part to counteract it.
