Rainforest
The Amazon ecosystem is considered to have one of the richest and most complex communities of plant and animal life in the world.
The principal Amazon artery for visitors in Ecuador is the Napo River. The Napo’s 130 islands are covered by young forests, which provide refuge and nesting sites for a multitude of bird species and large and diverse amounts of flora and fauna in extraordinary variations in habitats.Visit these phenomenal locations during our Amazon rainforest tours in Ecuador.
The indigenous communities living within the existing ecosystems of this vast forest preserve are: the Siona-Secoya, Cofan, Huaorani, Shuar and Ashuar communities. On some tours you will have the opportunity to visit and learn from one of these.
