A day in the jungle is a magnificent experience, and it doesn’t end when the sun goes down. The adventure continues as you glide into dusk, with the sky illuminated in dusty pinks and striking hues of blue. Hop aboard a riverboat and surrender to the cacophony of fascinating sounds as the jungle prepares for dinner. The rustles, crinkles, crackles, patters, and stirrings you hear from the towering trees, leafy plants, and lush vegetation only add to the mystery. The exciting part? Catching a glimpse of what’s making those sounds.
Unlike anything you’ve ever experienced, a guided night safari in the Amazon Rainforest offers an unforgettable adventure. Look up and marvel at the stunning, twinkling stars that form constellations and clusters, so magnificently clear it feels like a private planetarium show. But soon, you’ll be brought back to the present by the hiss and swish of the elusive black caiman—a giant cousin of the crocodile—swooping bats, croaking frogs, and a host of other nocturnal creatures. This night expedition is a sublime experience where you’re completely enveloped by the wild.
The best time for a night safari in the Amazon is during the dry season, from May to October. During this period, the weather is warmer, the trails are more accessible, and the waterways are lower, offering optimal conditions for exploration.
