The art of travelling with respect
Rainforests
Amazon
The Amazon rainforest is the largest tropical rainforest in the world, covering 2.3 million square miles in 9 countries including Brazil, Ecuador and Peru.
Brazilian Amazon
The Amazon rainforest is the largest tropical rainforest in the world, covering 2.3 million square miles, with about 60% falling within Brazil's borders. The Amazon River itself is the second longest in the world, and the largest in terms of water flow and drainage area.
Chitwan National Park
Chitwan National park is the best known and most popular of Nepal's park, and you can fly, drive or raft down to the lowland Terai to get there. Whichever way you choose, you will be impressed by the range of wildlife you can see here.
Ecuadorian Amazon
The Ecuadorian Andes fall sharply and in less than 150 km you can travel from the high altiplano in the centre of the country to tropical jungle. To the east of the Andes, the area known locally as the Oriente, is the vast rainforest region of the upper Amazon basin.
Ecuadorian Cloud Forest
In the transition regions between the high altitude grassland above the tree line and the rich sub-tropical rainforest of the jungles, are the montane forests known as cloud forests.
Kapawi
Kapawi Ecolodge and Reserve is located near the Ecuadorian and Peruvian border, in the Southern Ecuadorian Amazon Basin on the Pastaza River, a major tributary of the Amazon.
Manu Biosphere Reserve
Manu was designated a world heritage site due to the incredible diversity of the plants and wildlife in the reserve.
Nyungwe Forest
A remote forest in the southwest of Rwanda which supports a huge number of rainforest bird species, huge troops of colobus and other monkeys and large numbers of tree and plant species. Chimp tracking here is fascinating.
Peruvian Amazon
As you travel east of the Andes, Peru's landscape drops sharply and dramatically to the greatest rainforest on earth - the Amazon. This area is remote, to say the least, and vast areas of pristine jungle provide habitat for a remarkable diversity of life.
Tambopata National Reserve
Tambopata National Reserve protects many hundreds of species of Amazon flora and fauna such as over 1300 birds, 200 mammals and 10,000 plants.
Yasuni National Park
The Yasunì National Park is an important UNESCO Biosphere Reserve and the largest tract of tropical rainforest in Ecuador.
