6 days across the Brazilian Amazon on the famed BR-230 TransAmazonica Highway across the Jungle. A remote track cutting across the largest rainforest in the world. The road is pretty straight for the most part but got hilly, here and there. It was nice to get up close and see what this famous jungle is about, but also sad to see how much of it is being burnt down for cattle ranches. Filmed with a GoPro HD camera. August 2010. Part of my 2 year trip around Latin America and Africa. My trip website: JamminGlobal.com
This video contains views of the Amazon rainforest during the wet season. Rivers flood the forest far inland making it possible to navigate deep in the forest by canoe and small boats. The video contains images and clips of the Bora indian tribe as well as of animals that live in the area. All my pictures as well as clips were possible during my 4 day stay at the Amazon Rainforest Lodge during some of the excursions provided by the lodge. The main purpose of this video is to create awareness among people and help protect the world’s natural resources.
This is the official video of Refugio Amazonas, one of the three eco-tourism lodges operated by Rainforest Expeditions. For further information on Refugio Amazonas, please visit www.perunature.com.
In Antigua and Barbuda, the beach is just the beginning…whether sailing, scuba diving or snorkeling, there’s plenty for everyone. Then explore the Caribbean’s only working Georgian Naval Dockyard, take a walk in the rainforest (or ride high in the forest canopy), observe nearby Montserrat’s active volcano, or just bathe in the glory of the Caribbean’s beautiful sunsets.
