2 Discover our Heritage to the world... We invite you to join us on an 11-day/10-night adventure through Andean villages, the Paramo highlands and deep into the Amazon Rainforest, where you will experience a wide range of landscapes, cultures, wildlife, colors and flavors. Learn about the daily lives and traditions of local communities and how their lifestyles have adapted to the modern world. Discover the Amazon rainforest and the traditional lives of its inhabitants, and how they are changing with global influences. On this exciting journey you will explore Ecuador s bustling capital city of Quito and the surrounding highlands, and later travel deep into the Amazon Rainforest. The Amazon is the world s largest rainforest, covering 2.7 million square miles and containing 10% of the world s known biodiversity. It is also home to 350 different indigenous communities, each with their own unique traditions and languages. The accommodations are incredibly tasteful and the itinerary, activities, and local guides are carefully chosen for maximum authenticity and enjoyment. I cannot wait to share this experience with fellow alumni as well as their friends and family. Sincerely, Jared Sternberg Tulane Law School 2013 President & Founder of Gondwana Ecotours
