All the while your local guide will introduce you to all the hidden secrets and wonders of the jungle.

Rio Pusuno - Floating down the Pusuno River, gazing at the sky and the tree-lined banks, your bottom firmly wedged into a rubber ring and grazing the surface of the water, you would be forgiven for thinking you had drifted into an Amazon dream land. In this activity, a guide will accompany you

NAPO RIVER | CANOE RIDE | WILDLIFE CENTER | COMMUNITY ENCOUNTERS | CAIMAN LAGOON

Napo Province - After the breakfast, walk to the Napo River is the Amazon’s largest tributary, and the rainforests it feeds are perhaps the most biodiverse on Earth. Suchipakari Lodge exists at the heart of it all.

Amazoonico Animal Rescue Centre - The first visit is the Animal Refuge Center.

You’ll never get closer to ocelot or tapir than you will at AmaZoonico, a rescue sanctuary for Amazon creatures. Led by volunteer guides, you’ll hear the incredible and sometimes tragic stories of the residents of the centre, from caiman to macaws and everything in between, who struggled to readapt to the wild after they were taken by poachers, sold on the black market, and forced to live domestic lives. By visiting AmaZoonico you are helping to guarantee the protection of these creatures.

Laguna del Caiman Negro - CAIMAN SPOTTING

The first thing you see is the ripple in the water, before a pair of be-spectacled eyes rises from the murky depths and stares into your own. Before long more and more pairs pop up: the family of caiman have arrived. While safely positioned on a wooden jetty, sometimes of around 15, ranging for full-sized father to weeks’ old baby.

Box Lunch

Ahuano - CERAMICS

It’s almost hypnotic, watching the indigenous woman moulding clay from the riverbed into a dainty little bowl. In this encounter, a local will demonstrate how their community creates crockery from natural materials found in the forest, and the techniques used to seal and decorate them. There’s also an opportunity to purchase these lovely items for yourself. Return by canoe to the Lodge, Dinner & Lodging

From there, locals will show you the processes that turn that little piece of nature into a rich, bitter-sweet indulgence.
