The Amazon is an ideal destination for nature lovers at any time of the year. Although there is a "rainy season" from December to February, the weather in the Amazon remains consistently warm. The high tourist season usually coincides with the dry season, which can result in greater influx and chaos in tourist services. On the other hand, the low season (rainy season) offers a quieter and more personal experience. It is important to consider that certain species of animals are more visible in certain seasons. For an optimal experience, it is recommended to research the wildlife and choose the right time according to your interests. In short, any time is a good time to visit the Amazon, depending on your preferences. It is suggested to use services from experienced agencies such as Peru Amazon Trips to ensure a satisfactory and safe experience.
