The NWC Amazon Lodge is an ecotourism project that protects and preserves over 82 square miles of pristine Amazon Rainforest within the Yasuni National Park, declared by UNESCO a Biosphere Reserve. The Yasuní National Park, considered the largest region of tropical forest in Ecuador, is one of the most diverse areas in the World, so its conservation is vital not only for Ecuador but for the planet.

The Napo Wildlife Center is located on the banks of the Anangucocha Lake, within the unique and ancestral territory of the Kitchwa Anangu local Community, in the heart of the Yasuni National Park.
In the early 90’ members of the Kitchwa Anangu community envisioned building a lodge that could attract tourists from all parts of the World. This project would be an opportunity to provide jobs for the community and to protect their land and its wildlife. Back then, they built with great effort 4 cabins and a large main house for the dining room and the kitchen.

However, at that early stage they needed more money to finish the building which remained incomplete. They wanted to build a great infrastructure and be the greatest luxury hotel in the Amazon Rainforest in Ecuador. This would be a place with first class facilities and accommodations that provide visitors with great comfort and offer them an intimate wildlife experience in the middle of the Amazon Rainforest.

Then, in 2000, with the support of several national and international organizations, the Napo Wildlife Center project was finally able to move forward. And the community’s dream became true. In 2004, thanks to the community initiative and the financial and technical assistance of different organizations, the Napo Wildlife Center was born and started to welcome visitors from all parts of the World.

Today, the Napo Wildlife Center is considered the first luxury Amazon lodge in Ecuador and the Anangu Community has been nationally and internationally recognized by guests and companies for its great organization and operation, service and for great experiences provided to guests.

The Anagu community is the greatest and finest example of community-based ecotourism. This project not only protects more than 82 square miles of pristine rainforest, but also makes it possible for the community to be auto sustainable, as all profits are for the members of the community and to build other projects for tourism, conservation, health and education.

Birding Tour - 5 days / 4 nights

The Yasuní National Park is a uniquely diverse area that covers over 9,800 quare kilometers of pristine Amazon Rainforest. The park, considered by UNESCO a Biosphere Reserve, is home to more than 550 bird species which is about 40% of the bird species of the entire Amazon Basin…think about that. For this reason, the Yasuní National Park is in the must-to-visit places list of amateurs and professional ornithologists and birdwatchers.

Be prepared for the Napo Wildlife Center birding tours and be witness of the beauty and amazing flora and fauna the Amazon Rainforest hides into its forests and creeks.

Day 1:
A short flight over the eastern Andes mountains will take you from Ecuador’s capital city to the jungle town of Coca. At the Coca airport our staff will welcome you and take you to Orellana port, the gateway to the pristine lands of the Ecuadorian Amazonia.

Getting to the Napo Wildlife Center is an adventure itself! A motorized canoe will take us downstream the Napo River until reaching –after about 2 hours– the Napo Wildlife Center welcome station on the banks of Rio Napo. From here you will be transfered to smaller paddle-canoes up the Añangu Creek to finally come upon the Napo Wildlife Center ecolodge located on the banks of the black water Anangu Lake.

Along the way to the lodge you will discover the diversity of the region and see different bird species wuch as hoatzins, kingfishers, herons, etc.

Day 2 to 4 (The days could be extended as required by passenger)

(The days can be extended as required by passengers)

One or two mornings, we will visit the very sturdy canopy tower which offers privileged access to a world apart from the rest of the rainforest. Three full days or more will only scratch the surface of the full range of avifauna in western Amazonia. Get a feel for the complexity of precious habitats and microhabitats within easy reach of the lodge.

Flocks of oropendolas, aracaris, tanagers, and euphonias roam the canopy in search of fruit. Spangled and plum-throated cotingas sing from the treetops while raptors perch on vantage points to dry off in the morning sun. White-browed purpletufts and crowned slaty flycatchers compete for insects, numerous parrots and macaws fly by or drop in if there is a fruiting tree nearby, and many other species wander past (and through!) the towering tree.

Good forest trails offer access to another component of the avifauna with woodcreepers, antbirds, and tinamous are particularly well represented. We should be able to encounter the vocally striking screaming piha and the visually striking black-necked red cotinga. Keep your eyes peeled, cameras charged, and binoculars at the ready.

Several clay licks (or “saladeros”) exist on the NWC lands. Here we should see (and hear!) the spectacle of hundreds of parrots and parakeets coming in to eat clay. It’s a unique sight to see, and it never gets old! The river-edge forest, where we’ll visit the local community that built and expertly runs the lodge, is home to numerous other species such as turquoise and magpie tanagers, rufous-headed woodpeckers, and swallow-winged puffbirds.

We’ll also enjoy numerous canoe rides around the lake by the lodge and along adjacent creeks, where the songs of silvered and plumbeous antbirds reverberate through the flooded forest. Birds we will be seeking here include the poorly known zigzag heron, a habitat specialist called the point-tailed palmcreeper, the orange-crested manakin, and the striking long-billed woodcreeper. Plenty of different species of monkeys and the impressive giant river otter are also highlights.

And then there are islands in the Río Napo which, depending on their age, support a varied avifauna distinct from that found on the “mainland” only a few hundred yards away! Island specialties we hope to see include the black-and-white antbird, olive-spotted hummingbird, and at least three species of spinetails. Plus more “expected” river birds such as the capped heron, collared plover, and yellow-billed tern will surely make an appearance.

Day 5:
On this last day we’ll head back to the jungle town of Coca where you will return to Quito.

Экскурсия по Кито с Давидом нам очень понравилась: прекрасная архитектура старого города точно стоит потраченного дня. Наш гид был безупречен: тактичен, быстро подстраивался под наши запросы ( больше или меньше информации, темп исключительно наш), достаточные знания по истории, культуре и обычаям Эквадора, интересная подача - не занудно, прекрасный водитель. Очень рады, что нам так повезло с Давидом! Спасибо и рекомендация от чистого сердца для всех туристов.

 Verified Опасный Эквадор!
Что ж... Я хотела открыть для себя Южную Америку и мой выбор пал на Эквадор. Но почитав инфу в интернете и поспрашивав соотечественников, живущих там долгие годы, мне говорили, что там очень опасно, очень криминально и лучше туда вообще не соваться! Да и делать особо нечего - ничего интересного там нет. Но мне уж очень хотелось поехать и я решила найти гида. Путем долгих поисков мне дали контакты Давида. Я сразу же написала ему. Он очень подробно отвечал на все мои многочисленные вопросы. Более того, предложил сразу несколько вариантов чем можно дополнить мою программу путешествия. За два дня он показал нам столько красивых и интересных мест - мы видели редких туканов, вокруг меня кружило сотни видов колибри, побывали на плантациях кофе и какао (где мы пробовали местный кофе и шоколад), гуляли по ночному Кито, забирались на вулканы, попробовали более 30 экзотических фруктов, купались в горячих природных вулканических источниках, изучили местную кухню, повстречали многих редких животных, были в центре мира, гладили ламу, получили сертификат за яйцо - да чего тока не было! Давид всегда приезжал вовремя, он не торопил нас при осмотре достопримечательностей (а то я знаю как бывает - 5 минут и побежали дальше), давал кучу интересной информации о каждом месте и о стране в целом, подробно отвечал на все вопросы (ну мне это важно, у меня всегда куча вопросов 😄), если по дороге я замечала что-то интересное - без проблем останавливались. Даже помогал при шоппинге (и в магазине (магазины он не навязывал, я сама выбирала магазины), и на рынках)! Если вы хотите увидеть настоящий Эквадор, узнать его получше и увидеть своими глазами, понять, что он не более опасен, чем те же города Америки или Европы, что он очень красивый и безумно интересный - я очень советую вам Давида. Единственное о чем я пожалела - мало дней мы взяли на Эквадор. Думаем, вернемся сюда ещё раз и обязательно снова обратимся к Давиду дальше изучать эту страну 😊 P.S.: Возможно, получилось как целая ода, но я очень придирчивый клиент и редко кто мне может угодить😄 P.S.S.: жалко тут ограничения по количеству фото 😄😄😄

С такой организацией поездка прошла увлекательно и позитивно! Рекомендую!
