In Good Company: Exploring the Upper Amazon with Carlos Romero
- Jan 2024
"The Amazon is one of my favorite destinations on Earth," says Expedition Leader Carlos Romero, who has been working with Lindblad Expeditions-National Geographic for over three decades. “The endless river, the endless greenery, and the endless opportunities to learn and look for wildlife make this place very special.” As guests explore aboard the 14-suite Delfin II, they’ll encounter the rainforest’s rare creatures and welcoming riverside communities in the most authentic way possible. In this episode of In Good Company, Romero shares why he thinks every traveler should experience this biodiverse region at least once in their lifetime.
