The rainforest of the Amazon jungle is home to many Indian tribes from history like the Jivaro (the head hunters) and the Aucas (who were first contacted in 1956) these people still maintain much of their culture and traditional lifestyle. The historical names, often coined as insults by outsiders, have now been replaced in favor of the correct tribal names, the Shuar and the Huaorani .

The intrepid adventurer traveling with Safari can explore these rainforests by dugout canoe , along the rivers of the upper Amazon, while our guides explain the ways of the jungle. These rivers are home to a variety of wildlife including piranha, caymen, electric eel, pink dolphins and giant peiche, a variety of monkeys, river otters, jaguars and other mammal species. Toucans, parrots, macaws and the hundreds of other species of birds make the Amazon jungle one of the best birding spots in the world. Safari offers weekly camping expeditions to meet the Indigenous and to see the rainforest they call there home.
