My name is May Jony, I was born in the heart of the peruvian Amazon, a small river called NAPO, which is born in ECUADOR country and flows into the AMAZON river in Peru. I am the oldest of 6 brothers and 4 sisters and I left my village when I was 12 years old after finishing my primary and go to the high school in IQUITOS city but my family still live in my hometown which I am trying to help a little while I work as a tour guide. I had the chance to learn English in the school and now I am working as a jungle guide for over than 10 years. I offer Eco cultural, educative and full adventure tours with customized services and flexible programs especially designed for nature lovers, photographers, researchers, fishers, bird watchers, family and students. My over 10 years of experience and my deep love of the jungle and its inhabitants; the plants, the wildlife and the locals place me in the perfect position to introduce you to the AMAZON. I am committed in the conservation of the Amazon rain forest with social responsibility with the villages and people who help me to do it. I also organize workshops in schools to speech about the climate change (cause and consequences), garbage management (plastic recycle) because I consider to the education the best way to help to protect the Amazon nature. Be part of my team and book with me!! working as a tour guide since 2010 I do not have any restrictions in regard to my guiding, I can offer a full range of experiences
