The Perfect Amazonian Experience!

It’s been my dream to visit the Amazon rainforest since I was 10 years old, and this tour truly didn’t disappoint! From the friendliest staff & guides who all went above and beyond to please me, to the magnificent nature and wildlife all around, it was everything I hoped it would be, and more! Accommodation: Clean and comfortable en-suite rooms, with mosquito nets so you don’t have to bring your own. It’s surrounded by beautiful nature so provides the ideal Amazonian experience (eg don’t expect a 5 star hotel on a trip like this!) The communal area is lovely, with hammocks perfect for relaxing or reading a book. There are plenty of beautiful trails around the lodge to walk around in your free time too. Activities: The activities were SO much fun! I saw so many different types of animals and insects, and the guides were so knowledgeable and passionate which was contagious! I learnt so much and feel much more connected to nature after my trip. The sun set tower, zip line and adventure course are a bit sketchy, and quite basic but do the job and if you like adrenaline and aren’t a health & safety freak, you’ll love it (like me!). The parrot clay lick is from afar so you don’t get to see the parrots up close (you need binoculars) and it’s not always that they lick the clay, but you’ll for sure see 100’s flying round - just to manage expectations. All the activities provided a unique view and experience of the Amazon - I highly recommend this itinerary. We didn’t have a campfire sadly, and I was hoping for more Amazon legends stories told. You’ll need to be flexible with the itinerary as it’s best to capitalise on when the weather is good for the activities - eg we finished all our activities on day 3, so day 4 i just chilled on the hammocks and went for a walk on my own (went on the canopy & sunset tower again as they were such peaceful areas) which I enjoyed after the busy few days! Food: The food was always plenty and definitely made with love ❤️ Communication: It was super easy to contact Lucho via whatsapp! He responds quickly, and makes sure that the schedule all runs on time. I highly recommend this experience!

The Moonstone Trek

The organisation was faultless and the trip was superb, and fully thought through to make it as rewarding as possible. The standard of the guide - Cesar Smith - was top class.

The Moonstone Trek

The trip organisation ticketing advice and most importantly our individual guide were exceptional good. The route was indeed challenging trekking in the high Andes up to 4,650metres altitude. Our guide Smithy was calm professional and very knowledgeable. The crew and pack animals made the trip possible. Food and water were provided in ample measure along with every camp. This trip along the Moonstone trail was fantastic with such awesome views of the Andes. A truly wonderful experience.

Do yourself a favor and book this incredible tour with Bamba. They were professional and quick to send me all the information I needed after I booked. The tour itself was incredible. I mean the salt falts are stunning, you can't go wrong here.

So many incredible tings to experience on this 4 day trip! The landscapes were unreal and Bamba did an excellent job organising the whole things. Also it was a great option being able to transfer to Atacama.

Simply incredible! This has been one of my all time favorite trips! The salt flats were amazing. I could have easily stayed longer. Very helpful tour company and the guide was awesome!

Average daily budget for an affordable Peru trip

Budget travelers can cover basic expenses—like hostel accommodations, hearty local meals, public buses, and self-guided activities—for around USD 35 – 45 a day.

These Peru budget tours include key experiences like Machu Picchu visits, Lake Titicaca boat rides, and Sacred Valley excursions, ensuring you get an unforgettable journey without compromising on safety, quality, or authenticity.
