The Amazon Jungle is famous worldwide as a biodiversity hotspot and a dream destination for intrepid travellers, known for its wealth of exotic wildlife and flora. Although it extends across seven different South American nations, approximately 60% of the Amazon falls into Brazilian territory, taking up an area roughly the same size as Western Europe. Visitors who venture here will have the privilege of entering a world apart – a lush wilderness teeming with plant and animal life, offering the experience of a lifetime. Trek through a tangled rainforest, gently float upstream on a boat upriver, fish for piranha, play around with pink river dolphins, and pay a visit to the indigenous tribes of the Amazon and learn about their artwork, homes, and cuisine.
