British Exploring Society - Peruvian Amazon

A unique opportunity to experience first-hand the mind blowing biodiversity, hidden valleys, jungle mountains and cloud forest of the Amazon. This expedition will take you deep into the Peruvian jungle, into the Amazon basin to trek and study the rich biodiversity of the cloud forest environment. By day you will cut your way through the untouched jungle and by night you will camp to the sounds of it wildlife. 

Working in partnership with international NGO, the Crees Foundation, you will be actively involved in expanding their study and understanding of this amazing area. Observe wild monkeys, birds, snakes, butterflies and a huge array of reptiles, including some species of frog new to science; you may even get to see signs of the elusive jaguar. This is important science work which you will be undertaking to help Crees protect and conserve this area. It is hoped that you will also have the chance to get involved with the local people and help out on a number of sustainability programmes.
