Highlights

Jondachi River - Through towering mountains and endless seas of green we start our adventure by driving across the eastern Andean range at 13.000 feet. This scenic drive takes us through a panorama of rolling hills and volcanoes on a clear day, but even on a cloudy one we are gifted by views of hidden falls. Upon entering the Amazon basin, we will get ready to enter the canyon and have fun exploring through towering walls of smoothed rocked and green tree cover. Afterwards we will head to the lodge.

Great adventure - We had a great 4 day trip. The kayaking on the first two days was peaceful and we really liked staying at indigenous village overnight. My favorite was the rafting on day 3 on the category 3 rapids. The local guides Christian partners with really know the river well and take safety very seriously. The rafting is a real rush and I would like to do more of it in future trips!

Perfect and unique trip - We did the 5 day Kajak Waorani expedition. It was the best trip on our 6 month south america journey so far. We really enjoyed diving into a completely different world. The trip was very well organized, the guides nice and with a lot of knowledge. If you are looking for a luxury trip this is the wrong for you. Basic but very nice accommodation in the forest. A lot of animals and insects to see and feel in form of bites :) the best experience was the jungle walk where you would get lost without a local waorani guy. As well as spending a lot of time with the family drinking chicha, playing with the blowgun or with the many animals around the house.

Adventure of a lifetime - Christian was an amazing guide into the Amazon. He took us to amazing place and introduce us to local culture and people. He is truly passionate about sustainable eco tourism and cares deeply about supporting the communities he engages with. This was clear by amazing hospitality and generosity that was shown to us each step of our adventure. He was a great communicator and fun person to hangout with, also he told some really good stories. Each day we did a new amazing active adventure that I would have never discovered on my own. We stuck to the itinerary with some added bonuses when time allowed. My partner is vegan and he made sure she was happily fed the whole time. I highly recommend this trip for anyone looking to learn and adventure in the Ecuadorian Amazon.

Amazing Amazon Adventure - We had the trip of a lifetime with Christian! We could not be happier with our Amazon trip and all the active adventures we went on. Christian was a great and personable guide throughout the trip. He stuck closely to our itinerary and catered to our dietary needs. What made this trip so special was the local and native connections Christain has with the Jungle communities and the hospitality and kindness they showed us. I would most definitely recommend this trip to anyone who loves to be active and seeks to learn more about the Amazon culture and community.

Last Minute-Amazing Private Tour of Ecuadorian Amazon - Last minute, trip! And wow, what an amazing time my sister & daughter had visiting the Amazonian regions of Ecuador. Our personal tour guide, Christian, was a delight to have from start to finish, catering to all of our touristy needs! You want to see monkeys ok we can divert over to Misahualli. And monkeys did we see! You need Wi-Fi in the middle of the Amazon? Ok we can stop at the Rio Arajuno bridge (mind you, we’re kayaking the river) where there’s a small shack/shop where guy can let us use his Wi-Fi. You guys love soccer? Ok let me get a game of soccer going with the local Kichwa kids that we’ll be visiting in just a while. One of the most memorable events would have to be the hike through the Amazonian rain forest. I have always wondered what’s behind all those huge trees and such one sees canoeing or kayaking down a river within the rain forests. Having a local Kichwa leading us through his lands of the rainforest, us with our rubber rainboots on (to protect against snakes that may strike out at anytime), teaching us how one survives off the land, learning about all of the medicinal uses of plants and trees was amazing. I can’t say enough about Christian and the people he brought with him or brought into the tour to make it that much more interesting and unforgettable. Thank you Christian! We have already talked about our plans to return and do some hardcore MTB riding. Apparently that is one of Christian’s pastimes and apparently he does a great adventure tour MTBing the volcanoes and even the Galapagos, another bucket list destination that would be amazing to do Christian style-biking and boating. Thank you again for a wonderful and unforgettable time. Until our next South American adventure Christian ..!!
