Venture into the wild unknown, where nature’s challenges become your greatest triumphs.
Prepare for an extraordinary jungle expedition that will push your limits.
This challenge is tailor-made for the boldest of adventurers!
Our seasoned wildlife trackers will guide you on a once-in-a-lifetime journey to the most remote and pristine corners of the Amazon rainforest.
Our challenge routes are virtually uncharted in the tourism realm, which means that wildlife observation thrives in these secluded jungle regions.
These expeditions are designed for teamwork. There are no “tourist” services. All participants must strive to collect firewood, fish, prepare food, purify water, build shelters, make rafts and carry out all the activities necessary to succeed in this challenge.
