Before travelling – think of our planet!
Working in the Amazon rainforest we know that this unique ecosystem is being threatened by increasing man-made greenhouse emissions (like CO2 and Methane) as well as deforestation.
If we want to protect the Amazon and other ecosystems on our planet we also need to change our habits and our behavior to allow for a more sustainable way of life.
This means to consume less and reduce emissions per person.
Do you know your CO2 footprint?

Please check your personal emissions and think of alternatives to air travel.

Amazon Trails Peru
Amazon Trails Peru was founded in 2002 by a german geographer and a peruvian naturalist & guide, who grew up in the rainforest.
We offer quality Manu tours in small groups. Our main focus is on wildlife observation and our main concern is rainforest conservation.
