Any
Kumuka overland or local transport tour that travels to Ecuador will feature
this 3 day trek into the Amazon Jungle. This is INCLUDED
in the cost of the tour.
From Otavalo we journey into the Ecuadorian Amazon Jungle,
travelling through the Andes and down into the Amazon Basin to the remote
jungle town of Coca. Here, you’re at the gateway of the Ecuadorian
Amazon where we travel up the River Napo to our lodges, which will be
our base for exploring the jungle vegetation and searching for the local
wildlife.
The terrain is rich and lush, and alive with hundreds
of species of plant and trees and our local guides will inform you of
their many medicinal uses, which are still practiced by the locals.
As well as hikes through the jungle you will also have
the opportunity to swim in the lagoons, fish for piranha, spot wildlife;
including early morning bird watching, caiman hunting in the evenings,
and looking for pink river dolphins in the lagoons.
