Holidays to Ecuador & Quito will take you to a country that is tiny in relation to its South American neighbours - but it is eighth in the world for biodiversity. Nowhere is this more apparent than on Amazon wildlife tours & river cruises, as this incredible region is home to over 340 different mammals and more than 20,000 plant species.
The Napo River, which flows through Ecuador, is a major tributary of the Amazon River and approximately 15% of the country is covered by rainforest. Wildlife you are likely to see here includes caimans, iguanas, sloths and many species of monkeys - including the capuchin, tamarin, howler, spider and squirrel monkey. You will also see an abundance of colourful birdlife on holidays to Ecuador, Amazon wildlife tours & river cruises.
A number of Amazon eco lodges, operated by local indigenous tribes, offer a cultural and wildlife experience in relative comfort. Both the Huaorani and the colourful Secoya tribes welcome guests into their community and you can see how they have lived for centuries. You can practice the art of blow darts and see how natural medicines are made from plants. A good local guide will help you see so much more on Amazon wildlife tours, both on boat trips and rainforest walks, and listening to the cacophony of sounds on a jungle night walk is an experience you will never forget.
Alternatively you can take an Amazon river cruise to enjoy the sights and sounds of the jungle from the water.
