About your trip

Join us on our carefully crafted 6-day tour into the Ecuadorian Amazon. Here, we will immerse ourselves in the magic of one of the most biologically diverse places on earth Yasuni National Park. The park is a unique convergence zone of the Andes Mountains, the Equator, and the Amazon Rainforest, hosting one-third of all native bird species in the Amazon. 


Situated along a picturesque lagoon on the Napo River, we will be staying at the Sani Lodge, an incredible indigenous-owned eco-tourism project operated by the Sani Isla Kichwa Community. 


In addition to the 596 species of birds found in the National Park, Yasuni is also home to 150 species of amphibians, 121 species of reptiles, 4,000 species of vascular plants, 500+ species of fish, and 100,000 species of insects.


Yasuni is also home to an incredible diversity of mammals like Common Wooly Monkey, Black-mantled Tamarin, Colombian Howler Monkey, Humboldt’s Spider Monkey, Spix’s Night Monkey, Western Pygmy Marmoset, White-tailed Titi Monkey, Puma, Jaguar, Ocelot, Margay, Jaguarundi, Giant Otter, Giant Armadillo, Giant Anteater, and the Tukuxi,


Our daily forays in the jungle include visits to canopy towers, clay licks, rainforest trails, and backwater lagoons by hand-paddled canoes, all providing opportunities for intimate experiences with breathtaking views and enchanting ecology.


So what are you waiting for? Let’s explore the Amazon together!
