Such an amazing tour. You dont get to br with one group from start to finish but will meet a different group each day and the same group in the Amazon. The quality of the hotels and tours was A+. Benjiman (tour coordinator) was communicating routinely to and always available to answer any questions. Everything was very well organized from pick ups to drop offs. This was an amazing experience and i look forward to booking more tours with this company. Highly recommend!Show more
