Umgawa Legendary Adventures

Our mission is to share breathtaking nature experiences, the best of ecotourism – sights, sounds, unforgettable moments, as you soar through pristine rainforest eco-systems, while connecting you to regions, communities and cultures that make for a truly legendary adventure. We will make your rainforest visit uniquely special and educational, fun-filled, exciting, and safe for all ages. The word Umgawa was created for the Legendary Tarzan to call jungle wildlife to action. This echoing call was used by Tarzan to put the jungle’s eco-system on high alert, so that the core nature of the jungle would remain safe for everything living within it. We are proud to borrow the word and make it our echoing call to be shared by each of our rainforest guests while experiencing our eco-zipline adventure tour.
