TRAVELERS FAQs

1. Who are we?
We are a united team of indigenous hunters and organizers who design and lead authentic nomadic survival expeditions deep in the Amazon rainforest. All of us were born and raised in the Amazon, where we still live and continue the traditions of our ancestors. Many of us belong to different ethnic groups, which gives our expeditions a diverse cultural foundation.

 

We are not guides trained for tourism — we are hunters, survivalists, and explorers who live this way of life every day. Our mission is to preserve and share this knowledge responsibly with those ready to face the Amazon with respect, humility, and commitment.

 

2. What expeditions do you offer?
We currently offer two progressive programs:

Coexisting with Hunters
Duration: 10–28 days

Focus: Cultural immersion & nomadic coexistence.

 

Becoming a Hunter  

Duration: 4–12 weeks

Focus: Survival training & apprenticeship, with progressive autonomy.

 

Both are based on nomadic movement, survival techniques, and cultural sharing — but the focus differs. Coexisting emphasizes cultural learning, observation, and coexistence. Becoming a Hunter is an intensive training path toward self-sufficiency.

 

3. Why Choose Amazon Expeditioners?

  • Non-tourist, unexplored Amazonian territories.

  • Long-duration expeditions (minimum 10 days).

  • Small groups only: 2–6 (Coexisting) or 2–4 (Becoming).

  • Direct economic support to local communities.

  • Focus on authenticity, not tourism — no shortcuts, no comfort packages.

5. What is the food like?

100% traditional Amazonian food, mostly sourced from the forest and local communities. During nomadic phases, meals are exactly what hunters eat.

 

6. Is there electricity, toilets, and other amenities?

Rustic toilets/showers only at base camp. Once in nomadic isolation, we live directly in the forest.

  • Coexisting with Hunters → Introductory → Challenging.

  • Becoming a Hunter → Introductory → Extreme.

 

8. Will I see wildlife?

Chances are high because we explore primary forest, but nothing is guaranteed. Longer expeditions = higher chances.

 

9. What staff leads the expedition?

Minimum of 6 indigenous hunters/survivalists for safety and contingency.

 

10. Do expeditions support locals?

Yes. We pay land entry permits, hire local logistics, and purchase food/resources directly from communities.
