Enjoy a naturalist-guided jungle walk, canoe explorations, and visits to a MONKEY JUNGLE RESERVE and the Caboclo's NATIVE AMAZON VILLAGE to learn about traditions, costumes, and culture. Sample two great South American cities combined with breathtaking Iguassu Falls. Three nights in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, begin with guided city sightseeing and a visit to Sugar Loaf Mountain.
