What Our Clients Say
Liz Simon, USA
Sani Lodge was one of the best travelling experiences I’ve ever had! The natives who run the lodge were extremely knowledgeable in so many aspects of the rainforest and life in the Amazon. It was real eye-opening experience for me.
Julia Tante
I really enjoyed my stay at Sani Lodge... I'm missing all the freshly squeezed fruit juices that we had at every meal! The chef was a good cook and gave us many varieties of foods to try!! I was happy with both our guides, as they were knowledgeable but not too serious. I think my most memorable moment was being paddled over to the camping area at night... so many stars and the symphony of music from the jungle creatures was beautiful!! The pathway to our tent was lit by candles... falling asleep to the sounds of the jungle, made for a peaceful rest.
Jennifer, USA
