Field Notes
Wildlife guides, expedition accounts, and practical travel knowledge — written by the naturalists who actually live and work in this forest.
Coming Soon
Our guides spend most of their time in the field, not at a desk. The blog is coming — written from first-hand observation, not from research papers. Topics will cover wildlife identification, seasonality guides, what to expect on each type of expedition, and occasional accounts of specific days in the forest that are worth recording.
In the meantime, send us a message via WhatsApp — every question you have about the Amazon, our guides answer directly.
What's coming
Wildlife
Inia geoffrensis is not a tourist attraction — it's a keystone species with an extraordinary biology. A field guide to their behaviour, habitat, and what responsible observation looks like.
Coming soon
Birdwatching
Seasonality shapes everything in the Amazon. A guide to which months favour birdwatching, why water levels determine access, and which species are resident versus migratory.
Coming soon
Field Notes
Igapó — seasonally flooded black-water forest — is one of the most biodiverse and least-visited ecosystems in the Amazon basin. What we saw on one canoe trip, recorded in detail.
Coming soon
Seasonality
Most articles describe the dry season as "best" and the wet season as "worse." The reality is more interesting. A practical breakdown of what each season offers for different types of travellers.
Coming soon
Travel Guide
The city itself is underrated. A field guide to Manaus written for travellers who are about to go deep into the Amazon — and want to understand where they're departing from.
Coming soon
Night Wildlife
More species are active at night in the Amazon than during the day. A guide to what you can expect to encounter on a night walk or night caiman search — and how to read the forest in the dark.
Coming soon
Our guides answer directly on WhatsApp. No bots, no queue — the person who replies is the person who will take you into the forest.
