Amazon Rainforest Experience | Peru Vlogs

Swimming with piranhas. Night hiking with tarantulas. Playing with sloths. Listening to birds at sunrise. The Amazon is an incredible and unforgettable experience. I hope you can go in person some day, but until then, I hope you enjoy this video.

**What's going on?**
I'm on a business trip with some friends from school. We're visiting a lot of companies and learning about business in Peru and all of Latin America. Between business visits, we're exploring and eating all the food. :)

In this video, we spend three days exploring the Peruvian Amazon rainforest. We left Iquitos via the port Bellavista Nanay, where you can buy fruit and snacks for the boat ride to your camp. You can also eat larvae here.

We stayed at a no frills eco lodge. Generators came on during lunch and dinner so they can cook food. We could charge our batteries during those times, which was fortunate.

Our guide stayed with us for the entirety of our trip and really made the experience great. His name is Andres and we highly recommend him. He gave us tips, insights, and interesting facts about the trees, animals, and people around us. Check him out on facebook here:
