Must Do Experience - Our guide, Christopher, was great! It was a very long day full of so many fun and exciting activities. Definitely worth every penny. Christopher was fun to be around, knowledgeable about the area, and the made the experience very special. We did so much in one day- it was amazing! A must do if you are in Banos.

Adventure day in the Ecuadorian Amazon. - On this tour from Baños to Puyo, we discovered a part of the Ecuadorian Amazon that we had not imagined. It was a ride full of laughter and amazement with the many experiences that the tour provides. The guide, Alberto, was an excellent instructor of Amazonian culture with absolute passion for showing and sharing the natural wonders of the area. I definitely recommend it to tourists wanting to get to know eastern Ecuador.

Fantastic trip couldn’t recommend it enough. Great value for money also - This was literally one of the best experiences of my life. The guide, Alberto and his son Nixon were so knowledgeable and fun to spend the day with. They showed us so many things and were so generous with sharing a lot of information.
I was just with my 2 boys aged 11 and 13 and we really enjoyed the one on one experience with the guides.

a lot of highlights - We enjoyed this day trip a lot. Alberto made sure we have a great experience on our private tour. We visited nice viewpoints (Mirador Miramera and Finca Mirador Indichuris), did canoeing, tried some local food & drinks at the market (eg. chontacuro worms), had a nice lunch (with amazon fish, but also vegetarian was good, vegan would have been available without eggs), hiked in rubber boots to the nice waterfall cascada hola vida and took a short bath, and finally had a hot chocolate and a yuca empanada on our way home. All in all a long day with a lot of highlights!

The BEST one day tour of the Jungle! Our guide Chevito was excellent - experienced and knowledgeable. - We were so lucky to have just ourselves on this tour - Chevito was very engaging, experienced and knowledgeable. I recommend this trip to anyone who wants to see a lot in just a one day tour. We toured a monkey rescue that included a beautiful short walk through a jungle environment; a longer hike through the jungle around Hola Vida waterfall — it was spectacular - an easy hike in and out with a stunning waterfall; we stopped for a traditional lunch of fish steamed in a large leaf (delicious) and then we visited an indigenous community where we took part in a ceremony and a calm boat ride in a hand carved panga; our last stop was at Mirador Indichuris where we had a view from what seemed to be the top of the world - there was a swing that took us out over the valley below, giving an amazing view and thrilling experience.

Fun filled day! - We had a fabulous time on this activity filled day trip. Our guide Shamang was friendly & knowledgeable. We visited a monkey rescue reserve, fed giant prehistoric fish, visited an indigenous community ( more on that later), had a short dugout canoe trip, ate a delicious lunch, saw chocolate made from cacao plant to hot chocolate and hiked in the jungle to an amazing waterfall.
Be aware that there are fees not mentioned in the tour description. About $20 worth. The indigenous community was clearly just there for tourists & kind of cheesy & awkward.
This is a great way to spend a day in Baños.
