Experience the real amazon! - Our whole experience with Muyuna Amazon Lodge was amazing. From pre-trip communication to food preference to comfort, it was great. No unexpected surprises. There is truly no age limit. I'm 63 and want to return with grandkids. The highlight was having Moises as our guide. His knowledge of the jungle was stellar. My only regret was going for 3 days instead of 7. We went during their rainy season which was cooler but had more mosquitos. I liked the head covering mosquito nets purchased on amazon better than the ones you can rent from them. Ours had wider head openings so we could lift them up when needed. You can rent binoculars from them but I recommend bringing ones at least in the $300 range.
