Countries Visited: Ecuador
Two contrasting eco-systems of Ecuador, a wildlife enthusiast's paradise

The beautiful Napo Wildlife Centre, deep in the Amazon Basin, is the perfect base from which to explore the rainforest both on foot and in canoe. The local tribe who own and run this premium lodge, the only one within the Yasuni National Park's boundaries, have banned hunting for over 20 years, resulting in very rich and varied fauna. After searching out giant otters, sloth, monkeys, caiman and many colourful species of bird, we can visit clay licks, climb a canopy tower or relax amidst the sights and sounds of the jungle. The volcanic islands of the Galapagos are as diverse in their geography as they are in their wildlife. Due to their isolation, the birds and animals have no fear of man; close encounters are assured. Our comfortable, first class yacht is ideal for low impact tourism and for getting where the cruise ships can't.
Few other boats travel to the more far flung islands of Isabela and Fernandina to visit their spectacular sites. If comparing this trip to those of competitors, please check if they visit these beautiful and pristine islands.
