True Amazon Experience - Honestly the best tour I've ever done. Completely disconnected from the world for a couple of days, doing amazing activities and learning lots with great people. The tour guides are super fun and helpful. The food is outrageously good and the portions are big! If I could change one thing, I would of done a longer more days (+4 days). Book this trip, you will not regret it. Big love to Dario and Carlos, amazing tour guides and also the super helpful kitchen staff 😀

Amazing lodge in the Amazon! - Amazing lodge in the Ecuadorian Amazon that provides a good amount of activities and relaxing time to enjoy. Gilbert was an excellent guide, you can feel his love and passion for the forest. We managed to find plenty of wildlife thanks to him and he also made sure all our food and accommodation was well prepared. Activities include making our own chocolate and coffee from cocoa beans, kayaking, wildlife searching, amazing sunsets in the Amazon and visiting local communities. Tourism is a big part of the local community's economy, by simply coming to the lodge helps the community and preserving the wildlife. Would totally recommend Cuyabeno Tucan Lodge to anyone looking for an adventure in the Amazon!

The best experience ever!! - This was the most incredible experience ever. We saw so many animals, from huge caiman, to snakes, spiders, birds and frogs! Stalyn, Carlos and team are amazing, they are so attentive and really go the extra mile to make your experience incredible. Everyone is so hard working and it was amazing to learn more about the jungle way of life, their family, their culture and their country. I’d highly recommend a stay at Tucan Lodge for anyone who loves animals and wants adventure! :) it’s a once in a lifetime experience that you’ll never forget.

Stay at Tucan Lodge - I had a great time on the Amazon tour of Tucan Lodge. The guide and his spotters are great at finding animals. Where I was still searching, they were already busy with other animals. The service of the lodge was good; good food, unlimited drinks and a cozy atmosphere. Highly recommended this!

Best Adventure in Ecuador - One of the best adventures in Ecuador. We did many activities in just 3 days. Walk through the forest, kayak, visit the commune, cross the mud of the lagoon, learn to make coffee and chocolate and a night walk. We saw many species of animals. Our guide Carlos was one of Top-rated I have ever met in Ecuador. He knows a lot about each species and entertained us from the early hours of the morning to bedtime. Highly recommended

Unbelievable Experience - An incredible pocket of paradise in the Amazon rainforest. Your days are packed full of different activities and it’s a unique way to experience the Amazon/Ecuador. The accommodation is comfortable and clean. Hot showers are a welcomed relief after trecking through the jungle or swimming in the river/lagoon. Carlos provides a lot of information and shares a passion for his community and area. It appears that he’s in the process of training up other guides to support him and the great work of Toucan lodge as unfortunately our guide was not at the same level of care and passion at this point in time.
