Take a 4, 5 or 8 day cruise where you’ll be able to unwind and relax as you listen to nature awaken in the jungle beside you. Enjoy modern ammenities like a sun deck, bar and hot tubs while you journey through highlights like the Yasuni National Park, Cuyabeno National Park and of course the Amazon Jungle.

Observation Towers

For a view like no other visit Cristalino Lodge where you’ll find two observation towers at a staggering 50 metres in height! Take in the different layers of the forest from the ground all the way into the canopy and see if you can spot a white-whiskered spider monkey or a macaw.

Volunteer
