If you dream about rafting on a wild tropical river, the Pacuare is it! Rated one of the top rivers in the world. You'll experience the intimate nature of the rain forest via the river. The warm water, cascading waterfalls, and opulently lush rain forest with brilliantly colored plants, and hiding animals and birds - it all makes this trip exquisite for your senses.
