Top Amazon Nature Walks in 2026

Lining the banks of the Rio Negro (the mighty Amazon rivers main tributary) we find a host of family-run jungle lodges, many of whom seek to promote the positive impact that a greater understanding of their delicate rainforest environment can have on its future protection. For anyone seeking that fully-engrossed Amazon experience, supporting communities, understanding conservation and witnessing some extraordinary natural sites along the way; this tour is simply a must! Any immersive rainforest exploration is only complete with its fair share of nature hikes, birdwatching walks, river kayaking, Caiman spotting, community visits and picture-perfect sunsets, all of which you can take a moment to enjoy during this adventure. Among the learning experience of regional customs, edible Amazonian fruits and medicinal plant life, one of the many natural highlights will come at "Encontro das Águas", the place where the Solimoes and Negro Rivers collide!
