A Life-changing Rain Forest Experience
A visit to Explorama Lodges located in the tropical rain forest
along the Amazon and Napo Rivers and their tributaries of the Amazon Basin,
holds a breathtaking experience for scientists, biologists, students of ecotourism,
environmentalists and anyone - young & old alike - who are interested in conservation
of our natural resources.
Explorama's rain forest itineraries are designed to enlighten the visitor
to the many wonders of the area. Fresh water Pink & Gray Dolphins frolicking in the
glistening waters; Three-Toed Sloths clinging to Cacao & Ceiba Trees; a Marine Toad
the size of a persons head; an Emerald-Green Boa Constrictor slithering along river's
edge; beautiful Poison-dart Frogs hopping along the forest floor; Capuchin Monkeys
chattering among the forest Canopy; Leafcutter ants trailing their booty to their
underground nests; Red Piranha fishing where a catch is guaranteed; visits to
'Riberenos' villages (people who inhabit the river systems); hundreds of species of
tropical birds and fish; the spectacular Canopy Walkway that stretches through 1,500
feet of the rain forest canopy reaching heights of 120 feet off the forest floor; shaman
attending their medicinal plants and lectures on how the plants are used to treat
indigenous people; accommodations in camp-style raised platforms, rustic
kerosene-lighted rooms/walkways or comfortable air-conditioned rooms with water-slide
swimming pool.
