What is EcoTravel?

Becoming a jungletrekker traveler means, among other things, that you recognize and respect the importance that nature, and the people who live in the forest, have to our planet. It also means that you want to have this experience in the most socially and ecologically appropriate manner. We believe in the credo "leave only footprints, take only pictures". We feel that it is possible for tourism to be a positive force, both economically and ecologically. You will also bring back memories that can be used for the purpose of education, awareness, and positive social change-that's what EcoTravel is all about.

The Brazilian Amazon.
Traveling to the Amazon is a unique and life-changing experience. Getting to the region is easy and affordable, but there are few programs as safe and rewarding as the ones you will find here. These programs are based on our own experiences as well as those of our travel partners. We believe these packages are worthwhile for both the visitor and the people of the region who can benefit from an alternative form of revenue for their communities.

Why travel to the Brazilian Amazon?
Nearly 60% of the Amazon Basin lies within the borders of Brazil. A vast domain of vegetation, water and wildlife, the region is also home to some of the most ancient cultures on our planet. You have an opportunity to be immersed in nature and experience a world devoid of most modern amenities (how liberating!!). Trade in the cell phone, fax machine and laptop for a backpack, hiking boots, and the adventure of a life-time!
