In case you are an extremist and are mad about adventures, consider Amazon travel. Discovering the Amazon is most people’s cherished desire.
You must have heard about the Amazon rainforest which is also known as Amazonia or the Amazon jungle. The Amazon is a mysterious jungle stretching across several countries, namely Ecuador, Peru, Venezuela, Bolivia and Colombia. The Amazon rainforest is dense and very large, even larger than Europe. In fact, 20 percent of the earth’s oxygen is provided by the Amazon rainforest.
When you are in the Amazon, don’t miss the opportunity to visit the Yasuni National Park, Janauari Ecological Park and Adolpho Botanical Garden, which is famous for its trees.
While boating down the Amazon river you will see a large number of bird species living in the jungle. Don’t be horrified when you see an anaconda and piranha on your way. You will also encounter tapirs, peccaries, jaguars, and smaller varieties of cats.
At night you may stay in Amazon jungle cabins or hostels. Mind that it’s dangerous to sleep in sleeping-bags or canoes. In the middle of the night you might be horrified by the sound of a lion. Tigers, jaguars and other nocturnal inhabitants may creep up on you in the dark.
In case you feel hungry dine at the traditional La em Casa Amazonian cuisine restaurant. Or make a campfire in the jungle and cook meat or fish. Make sure you properly put the fire out, though.
A number of ecotourism companies offer Amazon travel opportunities. You may choose to realize your Amazon travel with AmazonBrazil jungle-tours or Greentracks. There are few direct flights into the Amazon. You may fly into Sao Paulo and catch domestic flights going there. Visit extremeamazonadventures.com to book your trip.
By the way, don’t forget to bring along insect repellent, basic medicines and sunscreen before setting off for Amazon travel. Remember that your destination is not luxurious, so take all the necessary precautions.
