The amazing Amazon and Adventure life. A dream come true for me. As a child I always dreamed of going to the Amazon . Growing up in the Bronx there wasn't a whole lot of wild life, except for some squirrels and some sparrows. I loved the outdoors and mother nature. I went to Cuba when I was fifteen, lived in Hawaii for twenty-one years, served in the Peace Corps when I was fifty I traveled to Bali, dove the rock islands in Palau, and saw the stone money in Yap.
But the Amazon still called to me.
I had vacation time coming, so I went on line and goggled Amazon and the first thing to pop up was Adventure Life. They helped me every step of the way. I was sent a brochure with different options. I chose to go to Sacha Lodge. I asked many questions, some I am sure more then once, yet the staff was always helpful.
My Journey began on August 22 2008. I left Newark Airport for Miami. There I spent the night waiting for my flight to Quito the Capital City of Ecuador. It was a great flight and I arrived in Quito and was greeted by an adventure life staff. She drove me to Hostal de La Rabida. The altitude was 9200 feet in Quito. I was told to drink alot of aqua, which I did. I ate at the hostal that night and the food was very good.
Adventure Life has been an extraordinary travel resource for us over the years and today was no exception. Our River Cruise booking was handled by Jess (who has been our personal trip planner for several years) the same day as our inquiry. Suggestions were given for cabin choice and pre-trip options (that were not shown on the cruise line's website) like airport transfers and prepaid gratuities. Trip insurance recommendations followed and we were assigned a travel co-ordinator till the end of the tour. All we have to do is show up! Great service from friendly folks.

Our travel was flawless! The rider pickup (airport, hotel, ship) was seamless. Jane's recommendation for Emerald Cruise Sakara was everything I wanted but the experience was soooo much more. Adventure Life took care of each and every detail and this was the easiest of all my travels.
