As more than half of the remaining rainforest on earth, the Amazon needs no introduction. Spread over the borders of 9 countries and the most diverse place on the planet, Brazil is home to about 60% of it. Whilst 1000s of species live within in an Amazon experience isn’t all about seeing animals at every turn, but really encountering the rainforest.

That’s canoeing through flooded forest, fishing for piranhas, strolling through stretches of virgin jungle listening to the call of monkeys and the buzz of insects and cruising the mighty Amazon itself. This is one of Brazil’s greatest adventures.
