We suggest you consider every item mentioned on this page, at the same time have a lot of criteria in the quantity and size of the products that you obtain considering the amount of days of your expedition. Remember, that the more compacted you pack, the lighter your load will be during your long treks through the jungle. In a few words "PACK LIGHT AND SMART".
