What you'll do

We will try to do almost impossible - to find giant Anaconda during wet season. We will go deep into the jungle for 9 days, rafting on traditional boat, making night sorties in search of Anaconda.

For 9 days, you will be living the life of a hunter in the Amazon Jungle and will learn how to survive in jungle – fishing, camping and making fire, navigating in jungle etc. It will be a true experience, not a tourist attraction.

You will embrace the culture of the woodlanders and, among other things, accomplish a personal journey. You will come back home more open, actualized and fulfilled.

During the expedition, we will treat local flora and fauna with the utmost care, and no animal will be harmed by any means.

Please send private message to get shorter version (3-4 days) of this travel program.
