  • Amazon River: 3 Day Tour

    The tour is really cool, visiting the Amazon is something unforgettable. I personally loved the privacy of the lodge in the jungle, the animal sanctuary visit and the time to explore the river. Bad points: there is no hot water, food is really simple and the same everyday, as well as some visits are short.
