Workshop Overview

Our Amazon Workshops are structured as immersive experiences that foster a greater comprehension of the rainforest environment. Each program is tailored to stimulate awareness and create memorable travel experiences. The workshops can be specialized based on specific themes or objectives.

Comprehensive Learning Experience

Each Amazon Workshop consists of a variety of activities that explore the rainforest's multifaceted environment, including:

  • Natural History: General ecology and adaptations, featuring field methods for studying plants and animals, guided by experienced field biologists.

  • Cultural History: Engaging visits to local colonists and native communities to learn about their adaptations to life in the rainforest.

  • Economic History: Investigating the principal products extracted from the region, such as gold and Brazil nuts.

Participants are organized into teams of 5 or 6 to ensure effective communication and enhance the overall experience. This structure promotes safety during field activities and fosters a collaborative learning environment.

Expert Guidance

Our workshops are led by a team of professional guides and specialized biologists, all with extensive experience teaching high school and university students. The workshops often contribute to ongoing research projects, allowing participants to engage in preliminary data analysis. A report summarizing findings is shared with workshop participants, further enriching their educational experience.

Thematic Focus and Hands-On Experience

Each workshop is built around a specific theme, adaptable to various educational levels and objectives. Participants benefit from direct, hands-on experiences with the natural and cultural environment of the Amazon, increasing opportunities for wildlife encounters. The workshops also generate valuable data for researchers, who may use insights gained for their personal projects while contributing to broader scientific knowledge.

Community Impact and Conservatio

Our educational programs not only foster learning among participants but also educate local communities about the importance of rainforest conservation. Through these workshops, WASAI Lodge & Expeditions aims to create grassroots organizations focused on conservation efforts in the areas we visit. We hope to inspire similar initiatives among other eco-tourism enterprises in the Amazon region.

Safety and Comfort

Participant safety is our priority. Each workshop is meticulously planned to ensure a secure environment with comfortable conditions. While some activities may involve strenuous hiking, others offer more leisurely explorations around the lodge or on the water. Our instructors are trained to handle emergencies, and our teams carry recommended emergency equipment.
