L6702THseanb L6702THseanbOne of a kind rainforest experience
Napo Wildlife Center sits upon a beautiful Amazon lagoon full of wildlife that you can watch from your porch hammock. The experience here was one of a kind! The guides are incredibly knowledgeable and we had the opportunity to see tons of wildlife in the lush dense forest. Food was delicious and they were extremely accommodating of us as vegetarians. All of the staff were friendly and helpful. They are going above and beyond to support the health of the Amazon and their local community, and by staying here you are helping them to further this goal. The view from the top floor of the lodge shows 360 degrees of untouched land and is the perfect place to wind down your day. Would highly recommend for anyone seeking an unmatched rainforest experience!
DonDe35801Splendid Spot in the Amazon Forest.
The scenery, wildlife , accommodations and staff were all first rate. It's a trip from Quito but well worth it. The Napo River segment from Coca is scenic, the Anangu River segment is a thrill and the Anangu lagoon and lodge are stunning. We had small children with us and it was a challenge but the staff was very helpful with our "special needs". Our best regards to Milton, Fredy, Jefferson, Edison, Clarita and all the fine folks at NWC.
lotteg67En plats i paradiset
Om ni vill uppleva Amazonas så finns det ett paradis i Equador som inte är likt något annat. Lodgen ägs och drivs av lokalbefolkningen och ligger mitt i Yasuni National Park. Här fick vi komma nära naturen - till fots, med kanot, lära oss om människorna som lever och förvaltar jordens lungar. Här finns uttrar, kajmaner, sömngängare och ett otal vackra fåglar. Personalen, maten, hyddorna, allt är välorganiserat på ett mycket personligt sätt. Iväg med er nu! Kommer inte att ångra det!
