The Amazon Adventure Begins

There are three options for getting to this point: private transportation, public bus, or car. Our team can help you book private transportation from Quito to the Cuyabeno entrance.
Upon arrival, we will enjoy a delicious lunch before beginning our adventure into the Ecuadorian Amazon Rainforest aboard a motorized canoe. During the ride, you will listen to the sounds of the jungle, and observe a variety of tropical birds, monkeys, and other wildlife inhabiting this ecosystem. Our naturalist guide will explain how animals and plants interact in this unique environment. Upon reaching the Ecolodge, you’ll settle into your private cabins. After dinner, our native guide will give an introduction to the activities planned for the following days within the Cuyabeno Wildlife Production Reserve.
