Peru's Peruvian Amazon
Peruvian Amazon
With nearly two thirds of its land dedicated to the Amazon Rainforest, Peru proves the premier destination from which to explore the largest remaining tropical rainforest on Earth. In beautiful contrast to the towering Andean slopes and arid Peruvian desert, find the rushing, volatile and ever-changing waters of nature’s masterpiece, Amazonia. Surrounded by lush forest ecosystems and home to thousands of species, the Peruvian Amazon boasts a vibrant bio-natural diversity found nowhere else in the world.
Wildly believed to house the largest concentration of mammals anywhere in the world, Peru’s Amazon is an awe inspiring landscape, worlds apart from the historic cities of Cusco and Arequipa, and the modern madness of Lima. Defined by its rivers, the Amazon is best explored from the seat of a dugout canoe, and as it remains relatively untouched, the most efficient means to access this remote land of lush greenery is by airplane. Spend your days exploring the wonders of the forest and the curious wildlife that makes this one of the most amazing regions on earth. Then, after a long day of mysteries unfolding, return to one of the comfortable eco lodges that speckle the Amazon, where remote purity meets modern amenity in luxurious fashion.
