In the end decided not to do the jungle tour as I'll be able to do that from other countries, but did a Pampas tour with the 2 Irish lads instead. It was a cool experience although an animal lover would have enjoyed it more than me. We saw monkeys, alligators and caymens, a load of birds, an anaconda, pink river dolphins and the most disguisting animal I have ever seen which was this huge rodent that I can only describe as a cross between a rat and a pig. (Its made me think twice about the Galapagos though seeing as I just couldn't get excited at every new animal we saw). We sailed up the river every day in a dug-out canoe and stayed in wooden houses where locals cooked all our meals. Despite covering myself in repellent and sleeping under a mozzie net, I got bitten alive. The only thing worse than white legs are white legs with bites all over them.
