WHY NAPO WILDLIFE CENTER?
A Unique Experience in the Heart of Yasuní National Park
A DIFFERENT MODEL OF TOURISM
More than a lodge in the Amazona
Napo Wildlife Center was created from a vision in which tourism, conservation and community development move forward together. Managed directly by the Kichwa Añangu Community, the lodge is part of a model that protects the territory and creates opportunities for its people.
Every visit contributes to the conservation of Yasuní National Park’s biodiversity and helps strengthen initiatives related to education, healthcare and community well-being.
