Incredibly beautiful and adventurous days - What an impressive experience! I was lucky enough to be able to do the Calderon Extreme tour alone with two guides. The 1.5-day hike to the accommodation was challenging and very adventurous; if that's what you're looking for, you definitely won't be disappointed! From rubber boots getting stuck in the mud to river crossings where the water reached up to your shoulders, it had it all. The guides were always in a good mood and very motivated. There wasn't a question they couldn't answer for me - after all, they grew up in the jungle themselves. I still think it's amazing how much we did in those 4 days: made açai into juice, went on a canoe tour, went fishing, went on a night hike, tried to climb palm trees, went swimming in the river a lot during the day and, of course, went hiking a lot. There were monkeys, huge spiders, toucans, parrots and even a sloth and a snake to marvel at. I would 100% recommend this tour and will hopefully come back again myself.

The best nature experience I've ever had - Calderon extreme trip made by Tarapoto Amazonas was a unique, with great fun, excellent guide service. The trip was perfectly organized. For 2 tourists, we received 3-person service: two local experts in jungle knowledge: Amador and Gilberto, and a phenomenally beautiful English translator named Luvia. We spent 4 complete days with this group together and in every minute of this trip was something new and interesting for us. The first and last day of the trip were the most difficult part, because it involved an approximately 8-hour walk with a backpack to the camp where we were later stationed. Only gum boots, will work in the jungle, because you have to walk on wet, clay and hilly areas. However, it is possible to complete the route without being in extremely good condition. The guides served meals and took breaks to rest along the way. Even though the water available in the jungle is very clean, it is not recommended for people from outside the Amazon to drink it directly. We were equipped with bottles with a bacteria filter, so we did not have any health problems during our whole trip. The camp in the middle of the jungle is run by the greatest optimist I have ever met - Anibal. Great guy! For 4 days we experienced life in the jungle, we were shown what the life of loners in the jungle is like, we also had a super exciting night trip around the jungle. We felt a family atmosphere in this small group what was absolutelly unexpected. The conditions during your stay in the jungle are primitive, but completely ecological and fully harmonized with the omnipresent nature. A unique trip, LLuvia, Amador and Gilberto are absolutely the best team for jungle expeditions. I recommend it 100%

An Amazon adventure, a glimpse into life in the jungle. - It was huge. A huge experience. Completely 100% recommended We walked in on the first day, which was 7 hours walking with light pack.I was told, incorrectly, that "the jungle will eat your shoes...." so "only wear these gumboots". Instead, the tracks are like any national park tracks. If you are happy side-stepping a few puddles you will never have to get your feet wet. At the first stop I switched into my bush/mountain shoes, even though gumboots are the _de rigueur_ wear in the (local) Amazon area. Everyone (else) is wearing them. However, for me, I don't think that it is/was a good idea to wear (effectively) "new" gumboots for seven hours of walking on the first day, and then for three days, and for 8 hours walking on the last day. Stayed at this guy's (Hannibal's) finca in the jungle/amazon/forest which was exceedingly cool and really made the whole thing. Happiest guy I ever met, not a problem in the world. He'd been there for 10 years and what did he have to worry about? If the Apocalypse came he wouldn't even notice. Cool to see that such a life is possible. The guide was great. He'd grown up in this area of the forest, the Amazon, so it was like his neighborhood. Super nice guy. And . . . they supplied a translator who was also excellent, soon to be running his own Amazon adventures. Neither complained about how slow I walked. Did an overnight stay in an impromptu spot in the forest. Everything was very cool. Over the days picked up lots of details about how life works out there, little things. Saw a few of the locals of the forest. It was great, all was good. I think this adventure is only for solo individuals; not sure how they would handle two people. Possibly better suited to guys than girls, but they're pretty inventive, they'd sort something out. Take very little with you - food including coffee is supplied - and it is _really_ hot. Do take maybe seven (or more) t-shirts. When walking you want to put on a new, not-sweat-drenched t-shirt at each stop. Take some soap to hand wash your clothes (i.e t-shirts). *Do* take antihistamines. They should have been supplied. 50% chance you'll need them. Sun screen, though you are usually under the trees. I didn't pay (it was a gift) but I understand that it is around $100/day, which is seems to be around the going rate, what other multi-day, accommodation-and-food attractions are charging.
