How we Work

Your safety and our compliance with the ethics of Eco-tourism and cultural exchange are important parts of our mission to inform, educate, and inspire. Though we can not predict everything, extensive practical experience in the region has allowed us to attend to important and necessary details that will ensure your satisfaction.

We work only with licensed and experienced travel professionals in the U.S., Canada, and Brazil. Our programs have features that most travel operators and agencies have not thought of, or don't have access to. Our commitment is to recognize the cultures of Amazônia, and other natural areas of Brazil, respect the integrity of the forest and its people, support the local economy, and make new friends.

We do not serve groups larger than 16 people in a single program. We also avoid crowded areas, hotels, and resorts that we feel are less than socially and ecologically oriented. The exception may be in the case of city tours, or additional trips and festivals you may decide to participate in.
