Peru - The Amazon
THIS IS NOW PART OF THE TOUR
In the trees and plants where the Amazon River’s myriad of waterways winds its way through the jungle, a guide will point out the amazing natural herbal medicines that can be found here. Some of the villagers still live in the jungle, in a very primitive lifestyle, where they continue to hunt for food with poison blow pipes. In stark contrast, as evening approaches you will return to Ceiba Tops, your luxurious lodge, for a meal and swim in the pool after another memorable day.
