What people love about Fully Guided Tours in Amazon Rainforest
- Amazon Riverboat Adventure In Depth
Amazing one of a kind tour. Should be a bucket list item for anyone adventurous.
- Local Living Ecuador—Amazon Jungle
Great trip with a good mix of activities. Ecuador is just beautiful. Had one day to relax due to not doing alternative activities which was a nice break at the end. My guide was wonderful and very helpful.
- 4 Days Amazon Lodge Cuyabeno Reserve
Our stay at Nicky Amazon Lodge was fantastic! Communication with Tourradar about pickup location was not. No where on the reservation did it say the pickup changed from Lago Agrio to Rio de Cuyabena. I only found this out once Daniel contacted me and I asked about pick up times. The morning of when we had our transport arranged our driver contacted Daniel and asked for the direct contact for the person who would be waiting for us at the pick up location and was told there was no contact number. The confusion about which “el puente” location we needed to be at was stressful. Communication needs improvement.
