Introduction

Immerse yourself in the essence of Amazonia with this astounding trip to the heart of the World’s biggest and most wildlife-rich rainforest.  A taste of Ecuadorian culture awaits .  You fly east over the Andean peaks and down into the vast rainforest of the Amazon Basin.  Your Amazon adventure will start at the spectacular Sacha Lodge where you can scan the tree tops from the impressive canopy walkway,  explore waterways by dugout canoe and admire characteristic birds such as the unique Hoatzin. The second half of your holiday will be based from Napo Wildlife Centre by the edge of a lake in Yasuni National Park, where Giant Otters and Anacondas frequent.  A canopy tower gives you amazing views of the area’s impressive range of wildlife.  Look for the iconic Golden-mantled Tamarin and the legendary Harpy Eagle is possible.

There are many ways to extend this tour, including days in the Tandayapa Valley and visits to Milpe, Rio Silanche and the famous Paz de las Aves Reserve (for Cock-of-the-Rock and antipittas), so please contact us for details.
