FORESTOURS.COM, we understand that traveling can raise many questions. This section aims to answer the most common queries, providing clear and useful answers.
The Amazon is a destination that can be enjoyed all year round, but the experience changes with the seasons:
High water season on the Amazon River (December-May): the “magical flooded forest” can be explored by canoe, allowing you to reach remote places. It is easier to spot aquatic and amphibious wildlife, among others, and the landscapes are breathtaking.
Low water season on the Amazon River (June-November):
Trails open up for jungle excursions, fishing, and close-up wildlife viewing on land. It is also the best time to discover the beautiful sandy beaches along the Yavarí River.
Booking a tour on the street may seem cheaper at first, but it carries serious risks:
❌ No safety guarantees: many informal operators lack certified guides, adequate equipment, and emergency protocols, putting you at lethal risk.
❌ Unreliable experiences: itineraries can change suddenly, tours may not even exist, and you run the risk of having a drunk guide the entire time. In short, you waste your time and money.
❌ Hidden costs and scams: street vendors often do not include permits, meals, or transportation, leaving you with unexpected expenses.
❌ No commitment to sustainability: Informal tours can harm the environment and local communities by not following responsible practices.
Packing smart is key to enjoying your Amazon adventure. Here is a list of essential items:
👕 Lightweight, breathable clothing: long sleeves and long pants to protect you from the sun and insects.
🥾 Comfortable walking shoes: ideal for trails and jungle excursions.
🧢 Hat and sunglasses: essential under the tropical sun.
🧴 Insect repellent and sunscreen: high protection is a must.
💧 Reusable water bottle with a minimum capacity of 1 liter: stay hydrated and help reduce plastic waste.
🔦 Flashlight or headlamp: useful for night walks and accommodations with limited electricity.
📷 Camera or binoculars: perfect for observing wildlife and capturing memories.
🧥 Lightweight rain jacket: the jungle weather can change quickly.
👉 And don’t forget your adventurous spirit: the Amazon rewards those who are willing to explore its wonders!
