Aventure magique en Amazonie

C'était une expérience incroyable ! Le tour de Cuyabeno avec Tangol Tours était parfaitement organisé. Les guides étaient passionnés et très informés sur la faune et la flore. Voir les dauphins de rivière et les anacondas de si près, c'était magique. Une aventure que je recommande à tous les amoureux de la nature. Trois jours de pur bonheur et découverte au cœur de l'Amazonie équatorienne. Tangol Tours a fait un travail exceptionnel. Ne le manquez pas !
