Guide Bio
My name is Valberto Joshua Lacruz , but everyone calls me by my Middle name that is “Joshua” . I am the son of a Native Wapishana Woman from the north of the Amazon, where I was born and raised in the Amazon Jungle.
I moved to Manaus in 2002 where I came to work as Freelance Amazon jungle guide, and I am the owner and Founder of the Company Joshua’s Amazon Expeditions, since 2016.
After communicating and working directly with local and international clients, I saw the necessity for offering different jungle tours from the traditional ones. Visitors have different interests and would like to see and experience different things while visiting the Amazon. So I started the company, with a group of dedicated and experienced guides. My main focus is to conserve and preserve the Amazon Jungle and to give visitors an unforgettable trip of a lifetime.
