AMAZON JUNGLE HIKE

It is time to stretch the legs, move the body, so Amazon Jungle hike is highly recommended for those who like the adrenaline and adventure to get into the amazon rainforest to explore it and learn in this time about the local medicinal plants used by our Amazonian tribes, look for big trees such as: kapok tree, Ficus, Amazon mahogany and also the famous tree during the history of the Amazon “The rubber tree”. Along the hike we look for some animals like: Monkeys, birds, rodents, spiders, ants, insects, snakes, etc.

The best time to do this activity is right after the breakfast, because animals are moving everywhere looking for food and also we will provide you Rubber boots that makes you feel comfortable and safe during the hike in the jungle against small ants, spiders, insects, and snakes on the ground.  This excursion may last about 4 or 5 hours back and forth.
