If you’re planning on travelling with us through a Peru tour package, make sure to add an extension to the Amazon Rainforest for an experience that’s truly unforgettable. Peru is renowned for its diverse landscapes and rich cultural heritage, but its natural beauty doesn’t stop there. The Amazon Rainforest offers a stunning contrast to the highlands and coastal regions, with an incredibly diverse ecosystem and abundant wildlife. The Amazon extension of your trip will introduce you to the wild side of Peru, through the sights, sounds, and experiences of the world’s largest tropical rainforest.

Explore the Heart of the Amazon Rainforest

Through your Amazon rainforest extension, you’ll embark on a guided exploration of the jungle that surrounds you. With expert guides by your side, you’ll spend your days trekking through the dense rainforest, uncovering the secrets of this vast and thriving ecosystem. By day, you’ll have the chance to witness rare wildlife, from howler monkeys swinging through the trees to sloths lazily hanging in the canopy. At night, the rainforest comes alive with an entirely different array of creatures, including wild peccaries and the various “creepy crawlies” that call this unique environment home.

One of the highlights of this extension is the chance to encounter Peru’s most elusive and majestic predator: the jaguar. As you glide along the riverbanks in your canoe, keep your eyes peeled for any signs of these magnificent creatures in the wild. The Amazon offers an unparalleled opportunity to spot wildlife, making it a nature lover’s paradise.
