Additional Information

The Cuyabeno Wildlife Reserve is a protected zone of 603.380 square kilometers (2,329.7 sq mi) declared by Ecuador since July 26th, 1979. This commendable step towards conserving a segment of the Amazon River Basin, has enabled us to establish our lodge based on the concept of low-impact eco-tourism. We aspire that, as you experience the pristine natural splendor around the lodge, you will realize and propagate the idea that these resources should be appreciated and maintained for forthcoming generations. The Lodge boasts one of the most unique and prime locations in the reserve, offering stunning sunsets over the expansive freshwater lake. Much of the wildlife you will witness is reliant on the distinctive ecosystem nurtured by the lake, providing some unparalleled wildlife viewing experiences.

Amazing, organised, friendly and fun - We had an incredible time on this trip. Everything was really well organised. We had a variety of trips to see as much as you can whilst there. All the staff were really friendly and our lodge was outstanding and clean. Our guide, George, was absolutely brilliant and really knowledgable. The food was great and they were able to cater for vegetarians too. The tour company will also help you to organise your transport from Quito to Lago Agrio. We would highly recommend this wonderful experience for anyone visiting Ecuador.
