BEST TOURS TO THE AMAZON OF ECUADOR [2023]

Best Tours to the Amazon of Ecuador

 

Why are these the best Amazon Ecuador tours?

Lake Cuyabeno is an incredible marsh area in the Cuyabeno Wildlife Reserve, while another part of the Cuyabeno National Park, at the border with Peru, where three great nature reserves come together from Ecuador, Peru and Colombia, together forming about 2.5 million hectares of Amazon protected areas. At the Peruvian side of the border river, lives a wonderful Sequoia Indian community that host our guests. Other than this community, nobody even lives near this region and is one of the most isolated regions of the entire Amazon of Ecuador and Peru. Wildlife watching is great, and in the river mouth of the border river into the Aguarico River, one almost always finds Pink Dolphins. The area consists of a network of lakes and creeks, that often are covered with floating vegetation and fallen trees. Navigating in this area always requires some searching and exploring, as the floating vegetation moves about and may block passages to the lakes and creeks. As a result, this is the most adventurous part of Amazon to visit from Ecuador.

On a rare occasion, with lots of luck you may catch the green eyes of a wandering Ocelot Cat in the beam of your flash light.

 

Ecuador Amazon Tour, Day 2

Early in the morning, we take on one of the few Ecuadorian black water rivers, where the clear water provides an ideal conditions for Giant Otters. Black water gets it color from decaying leaves fallen in the forested lowlands and swamps, while there are little or no sediments. There is also a vivid population of Scarlet Macaws as well as a great variety of tropical birds and monkeys.
