Spiders and Rain: What to Pack for the Amazon | Ecuador

The Amazon has got to be one of the world’s most unusual environments. With unexpected rains, serious humidity, and mosquitos just about everywhere, it is one trip that is well worth planning ahead for. The Amazon tour you book may provide you with the basics (rubber boots and rain ponchos), but don’t get caught in the rain! Come prepared using this Amazon packing list.

Now, listen. I travel with a tiny little 50L backpack and would never recommend a bunch of junk you don’t need. Instead, here are the practical pieces I wish I had brought to the Amazon for an Amazon packing list!
