Cuyabeno Reserve- Amazon tour
We had a really great time on this tour. We took the overnight bus ride and then it was like three and a half days ish at the actual reserve and then we traveled back to Quito for most of the last day. We got to do everything listed on the itinerary plus a night hike which was especially fun! Washington, our guide as well as the rest of the staff were amazing! He and Solomon our boat driver spotted all kinds of animals both in the water and in the forest. We saw caimans, otters, a sloth, tarantulas, toucans, monkeys, an anaconda, brief glimpses of dolphins, and lots more. The visit to the village was fun as well; we got to harvest and make yucca bread from scratch, and I experienced an interesting cleansing ritual from the shaman. All of our food was prepared with care and presented in fun ways. We also heard a lot of fascinating/crazy stories from Washington about his close calls and encounters with different animals. He really made this a great, really fun experience for us by teaching us so much, joking around, and sharing life experiences with us. Best tour we did in Ecuador, would definitely recommend to others!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for this incredible and detailed review! We’re absolutely delighted to hear that you had such a memorable experience in Cuyabeno and that it became the best tour of your time in Ecuador. It’s wonderful to know you enjoyed the full adventure — from the night hike and wildlife spotting to the cultural visit with the community and the traditional yucca bread experience. Seeing so many animals in the wild, including caimans, otters, monkeys, toucans, dolphins, and even an anaconda, truly makes each trip special. We’re especially happy to hear that Washington and Solomon helped make the experience so fun, educational, and unforgettable. Washington will be thrilled to know that his stories, humor, and passion for the Amazon made such a positive impact on your trip. We’re also glad you enjoyed the food and the care our team puts into every meal and activity. Thank you again for your recommendation and for choosing to explore the Amazon with us. We hope to welcome you back for another adventure in Ecuador someday!

A magical, unforgettable experience
Staying at Caiman lodge was truly magical! I give the environment, staff and facilities my highest recommendation. Amazing Guide Francisco Klever led us on nature walks and boat rides in the morning, afternoon and night. Under his expert guidance, we saw an incredible diversity of flora and fauna. We got to touch a boa constrictor and to look into the eyes of the caiman. We saw creatures I never heard of before like the madreluna bird who camouflages so well into a tree that you can barely see it, but it has big eyes and a stunning, ancient presence. We saw an anaconda, several storks, parakeets, toucans, other birds and three species of monkeys. We saw river dolphins, river otters, bats and tarantulas. We went swimming in the Laguna grande daily. The Laguna is very special and is filled with nutrients and minerals. When I swam in it, I always emerged energized and deeply nourished. We saw a two toed sloth and three toed sloth, stinky turkey, which is a prehistoric bird with unique adaptations, wolf spiders, Morpho butterflies, curare, quinine trees and Barbarra tree, which is the origin of the first anesthetic. We went on a night walk in the jungle and saw tarantulas, rats, bats, frogs, lizards, moths, spiders, beetles, caterpillars and dragonflies. We went to the indigenous village and we met a shaman, learned about indigenous medicine, harvested yucca and learned how to make yucca bread, and saw a capybara who the shaman had raised since she was a baby. The food was gourmet quality. All of the staff were very kind and helpful. I encourage you to give yourself the gift of this incredible experience and lifelong beautiful memories.
Response from the operator: Wow, Kani – thank you for such a beautifully detailed review! Your words truly capture the magic of Caiman Lodge and the wonders of the Amazon! We’re so happy you had such a powerful and nourishing experience. Francisco Klever is indeed a gem, and it sounds like you and nature connected on a profound level — from swimming in the Laguna Grande to spotting rare wildlife and learning from the shaman. Thank you for trusting us with your journey. We’re honored to have been part of such unforgettable memories. Come back anytime for more jungle magic!

Creative trip planning & overseeing
Michelle and Paul organised and orchestrated a “turn key” 14 day, Amazon/Galapagos, vacation for myself and my three boys during December 2023. Transportation, flights, guided tours, hotels, were scheduled and changed according to our needs. Paul followed up Daily to make sure we’re ok. Michelle was available from early morning to late at night to meet our need. The cost was more than worth it. It was never about money for them, our great experience always came first. Every single person they hired to guide us of the same feather. Big smile and eager to make our vacation, a great one. I would gladly trust him to plan our next trip! Hope I didn’t forget anything, but if I have, it will be a good surprise to you😊
Response from the operator: Dear E8311UFsams Thanks so much for your Review of your Experience with us here in Ecuador we are so glad that Michelle and Paul were able to surpass your expectations and make your holiday a memorable one. We hope that you will be back someday for more memorable experiences!

Adventure, Action and Accomodation - Quito to Amazon: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Quito.
How much does Adventure, Action and Accomodation - Quito to Amazon cost?
+
Prices start at $449 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Quito usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Adventure, Action and Accomodation - Quito to Amazon take?
+
Plan for about 120 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Quito is not rushed.
Is Adventure, Action and Accomodation - Quito to Amazon worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 69 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 7 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Quito, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Adventure, Action and Accomodation - Quito to Amazon?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Adventure, Action and Accomodation - Quito to Amazon suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 120-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Adventure, Action and Accomodation - Quito to Amazon?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Quito can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Quito and add a light layer if any part of the 120-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Adventure, Action and Accomodation - Quito to Amazon start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Quito within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Quito?
+
On Outty we rank every Quito experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Cotopaxi Volcano full day tour with all the entrances, every day, Cotopaxi Full-Day from Quito Including Entrances, Baños Full Day Tour from Quito Including Entrances and Activities. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Quito?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Quito?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
