Go wildlife watching in the Amazon rainforest, staying in a luxury ecolodge in the heart of the jungle.
  • Enjoy a 6-day Amazonian adventure, exploring the Ecuadorian rainforest

  • Spend 3 nights in a luxury ecolodge in the heart of the Amazonian jungle

  • Join included activities like canoe trips, birding tours, treetop canopy trails and night walks

  • Discover the nature, animals, birds and insects up close in the verdant rainforest


Day 1: Transfer to Quito

You'll travel from the Galápagos Islands to Quito, the historic capital of Ecuador, where your expedition cruise ends. We’ll meet you at the airport and take you to your hotel. You’ll have the rest of the day to spend as you please before your trip to Ecuador’s Amazon rainforest begins in the morning.

2: Quito to Coca

Your Amazon adventure begins. After a short, scenic flight over the Andes to Coca, you’ll enjoy 2-hour canoe ride down the Napo River, a tributary of the Amazon River. You'll watch for herons, kingfishers and more. Enjoy a short rainforest hike to Lake Pilchicocha, where you'll be taken across the lake to your lodge by canoe. Enjoy a swim, do some birdwatching or visit the butterfly house before dinner. After, join a night walk through the jungle to look for nocturnal species or take a quiet canoe ride on the lake.

Days 3–4: Your rainforest lodge

Your two-night luxury ecolodge stay includes a range of amazing activities. Try birdwatching on a treetop canopy walk, or visit clay licks, where colorful parrots congregate to lick clay cliff walls. Take a canoe ride through the peaceful swamps to spot anaconda, caiman and capybara—perhaps even fish for piranha! Or hike along the Napo River. Back at the lodge, relax with a refreshing dip in the lake or a gentle nap in your private hammock.

Day 5: Return to Quito

After breakfast, it’s time to return to the modern world. You'll take a canoe ride back to Coca, then a short flight back to Quito. We arrive in the early afternoon, which gives you the rest of the day to explore more of Ecuador’s beautiful and historic capital city, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Day 6: Departure

Enjoy breakfast in your hotel as your Post-Program adventure comes to an end.

Please note that we may visit sites in a different order.
