Hello,
I am fortunate enough to have a business trip to Caracas and Rio at
the end of August. I plan on taking some vacation at the end of the
trip and was hoping to take some sort of a tour into the rain forest.
I did this once in Australia and had a great time. The Nature
Conservancy leads a trip that sounds great but the timing is bad for
me.

Has anybody taken a rain forest tour in Brazil or Venezuela? Ideally
the tour would be led by a botanist or somebody knowledgable about the
local flora and fauna. I am interested in seeing orchids, animals, and
of course CP.

Thanks very much
Scott Brown
