I have decided that I am going to do the Peru trip next year but I can't decide if I should do the Amazon add-on or not. Can anyone who has done this trip give me guidance as to whether the Amazon add-on is worth doing.

I have not done this trip, but have also decided to do it next year. I am definitely going to do the Amazon add-on. My thinking is that you never know if you will ever get a chance to return so I try to cram in as much as I can. Who knows we may both decide to go on the same dates!

I went to Peru a couple of years ago, not with JY as had not found them then, I added the Amazon to my trip and for me it was one of the highlights of the trip. The diversity of birds and other wild life was amazing. I would say go for it you wont be disappointed.

What is the best time to do this trip? I have tried to look on the internet, but it does get a bit confusing - i.e. wet in one place, dry in the other etc etc.

I went at the beginning of September, it was still very warm but not too hot. The rains start again towards the end of September, so by going early in the month the weather is usually still dry.

I've just booked this trip for Feb next year. It would be nice to hear from anyone else who is going.

Hi there! I'm on this trip too, the Amazon add-on. Some very long-established friends of mine did a similar trip with Archers a while back and write quite a detailed report. I can forward the relevant extract to you if you wish.

Why don't you put the report here so all those interested in this trip can see it? If it is too long and Ben restricts it then perhaps you can send it to my personal email address, which Ben can kindly forward to you - it is ###################

Thanks

Jaya

I have forwarded your email to Gordon,

Kindest,

Looks exciting, I am also keen to include the Amazon add on.

Planning to go 5th March 2013

Any one else planning the same trip

Cheers Frank
