    Fantastic experience, would recommend.

    Fantastic 3 day trip in the Amazon. Adventure Journey made it most enjoyable and interesting, they took care of everything. Alfonso and Octivio were great guides, very professional and knowledgeable. I would definitely recommend this trip to anyone.

    Amazon Eco-Lodge Explore: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Quito.

    How much does Amazon Eco-Lodge Explore cost?

    +

    Prices start at $922 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 Amazon Eco-Lodge Explore take?

    +

    Plan for about 96 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 Amazon Eco-Lodge Explore worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 61 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 1 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 Amazon Eco-Lodge Explore?

    +

    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 Amazon Eco-Lodge Explore suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 96-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Amazon Eco-Lodge Explore?

    +

    Around 0 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 96-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Amazon Eco-Lodge Explore 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 tour from Quito -horseback ride and hike-NO TOURISTY way, 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.

    What is included in Amazon Eco-Lodge Explore?

    +

    Included: Transportation: Private and comfortable land transportation, motorized canoe; Group size: Small groups' 2 to 12 people; Lunch; Activities: Papallacta hot springs, Guango Hummingbird Sanctuary, Canoe riding in Arajuno; and Dinner. Not included: My Own Room supplement; International/local flights; Airport transfers; and Travel insurance (mandatory). Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does Amazon Eco-Lodge Explore include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered, or you can meet at the start point instead from 107 listed pickup locations in and around Quito. Be ready about 30 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.

    What languages is Amazon Eco-Lodge Explore offered in?

    +

    It is offered in English and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Amazon Eco-Lodge Explore?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    What happens to Amazon Eco-Lodge Explore if the weather is bad?

    +

    It generally runs rain or shine, so dress for the forecast in Quito. Standard cancellation terms apply: free cancellation up to 24 hours before the start.
