A 30-minute flight from Quito will take you to the city of Coca. Upon arrival, a 5-minute transfer will take you to the port of La Mision, where you will board a comfortable covered motor boat that will take you down the Napo River on a two-hour trip to the Napo Wildlife Center.
On the way, you will enjoy a delicious box lunch and coffee while admiring the scenery and birds escorting you to the lodge’s welcoming area. Once there, we will disembark for a brief rest and continue on our way.
We will take a dugout canoe that will take us through a narrow creek on a magical 2-hour trip. Enjoy the beauty of the jungle landscapes and the animals that will come out to greet us.
Upon arrival in the afternoon, you will enjoy the beauty of Lake Añangu, along with a delicious drink, followed by a welcome briefing.
We start early to visit the parrot clay lick, which is located one hour from the lodge. The best time to arrive is between 7:30 and 8:30 to observe the 11 species of parrots, parakeets, and macaws that visit it daily.
Then we will walk through the jungle to visit the Kichwa community of Añangu, spend a pleasant moment with a local family, and learn about their customs and daily activities.
On the way back, we will walk through a Terra Firme forest, where we will reach the second parrot clay lick, and if the weather conditions allow it, we will see some more species.
We will return to the lodge in the evening to enjoy a delicious dinner.
Early morning start again to make the most of the day and experience the incredible view of the rainforest from a 36-meter high canopy tower. Here you will see all the splendor of the rainforest, from its base to the top of a huge Ceiba tree.
Admire the different species of birds flying through the treetops. From colorful tanagers and toucans to blue and yellow macaws fly by. In the nearby trees, adorable spider monkeys search for fruit. This unique adventure will make you experience the Amazon in a very special way.
After lunch, we will hike through the primary forest, where a great variety of animals will join us along the way. After the hike, we will explore the lake and creeks in a canoe for a chance to see a giant otter family.
We begin our last day with a canoe trip back to the Napo River, where we will have the opportunity to observe more animals along the way. Upon arrival at the river, we will take a motorized canoe to Coca, where we will say goodbye to this wonderful place and take our flight to Quito.
