FAQ
Pishurayacu is a more "raw" jungle experience. It features two levels of waterfalls and natural thermal baths right next to each other, allowing you to experience hot and cold water in the middle of the forest.
Definitely! It’s the best way to understand the local economy (cocoa, tobacco) and see the amazing work done at the URKU center to protect Amazonian wildlife.
Most days are easy, but the hike to Pishurayacu is moderate. We recommend a steady pace and good footwear.
We specialize in creating seamless experiences. With us, you don't just see the jungle; you live it with the safety and knowledge of local experts.
