Your Amazon adventure begins at “El Puente,” where you’ll enjoy a fresh box lunch before boarding a motorized canoe for a scenic 2–3 hour ride along the narrow Cuyabeno River. Along the way, spot playful monkeys, colorful tropical birds, and lush rainforest scenery. Upon arrival at Amazon Lodge, settle into your comfortable room surrounded by nature. After a delicious dinner, your guide will give an introduction to the lodge, the reserve, and the activities ahead.

After breakfast, set out for a full day of exploration. Begin with a motorized canoe ride to the stunning Laguna Grande, where you’ll switch to a paddle canoe for a quiet glide through the flooded forest, spotting unique plants and wildlife. Continue to “Terra Firme” for a guided walk along the Palma Roja trail, where you might see toucans, monkeys, and exotic flora. Enjoy lunch at the lodge, then return to the lake for more exploration, a refreshing swim, or a breathtaking sunset. Back at the lodge, relax with a drink, and if the weather allows, join a short night walk to search for frogs, insects, and other nocturnal creatures.
