Adventure vacations denote off-the-beaten path destinations and exotic excursions not normally engaged by average tourists.
Probably one of the most exciting adventure destinations is the Amazon rainforests, located in Brazil and Peru.
This pristine locale is a haven for those thrill-seekers, young and old alike, seeking an exceptional and fun-filled holiday not possible anywhere else.
The following are some examples of the jungle activities and excursions that can be done on your Amazon adventure vacation:
- Hike and explore the vast pristine rainforest with very experienced jungle guides.
- Go on extensive birding excursions by canoe and hikes.
- Canoe pristine black- and white-water rivers, streams and oxbow lakes.
- Frolic with pink dolphins.
