At Wild Mandari, every tour and activity is designed by our local Kichwa guides and a small group of international experts who have visited and experienced the jungle firsthand.
We believe that the best Amazon adventures are rooted in local knowledge. Our programs reflect decades of experience and adapt to the rhythms of the forest, weather conditions, and your preferences.
Want to start your hikes earlier? Paddle longer? Add a birding checklist? We offer real flexibility in our itineraries to help you make the most of your stay — because no two travelers (or jungle days) are ever the same.
