5-Nights/6-Days| Conservation and Wildlife on the Napo River
Discover the Rainforest
Pair the Galápagos Islands with another of the planet’s richest ecosystems: the Amazon Rainforest. Deep in the jungle wilderness, nestled among the giant trees, Napo Wildlife Center welcomes guests into the wonderous world of monkeys, macaws, and all the unique creatures of the Amazon basin.
This extension is easily added before or after your Galápagos adventure, with flights connecting through Quito.
Stay in the Heart of the Jungle
Napo Wildlife Center, nestled within Yasuni National Park, is a community-owned eco-lodge set on a remote oxbow lake. Spacious cabanas with private porches and screened windows offer comfort while keeping you immersed in the forest’s sights and sounds. Meals highlight fresh local ingredients, and expert naturalists and Kichwa community guides reveal the rainforest’s secrets. Canoes, canopy towers, and trails provide unparalleled access to wildlife.
Journey Deeper into the Forest
Travel by dugout canoe, climb canopy towers, and explore miles of pristine rainforest trails.
Stay with the Stewards
Support the Kichwa Añangu community, owners and stewards of the lodge and surrounding reserve.
Witness Extraordinary Biodiversity
Spot monkeys, pink river dolphins, macaws, caimans, and more than 500 bird species.
