“Highly recommend”

Amazing lodge! You really experience the the jungle fully here. They have a good variety of activities to choose from and our allocated guide, Alan, was the best. We saw many animals, birds, insects and spiders. The staff were very friendly. The food was fantastic. I highly recommend this lodge.

Stunning accommodation, friendly and helpful staff, an excellent guide, fascinating excursions, a scientific research centre which genuinely contributes to conserving the flora and fauna whilst helping the local community. Altogether the best experience we could have had in the Amazon. Not cheap but this was a once in a lifetime experience and worth every penny. Slept better here than ever before.

“The location was perfect, the guide was perfect. But i feel the lodge was not up to standard.”

The guide Louis, was fantastic during the tour.

“Wonderful experience”

We had an amazing guide Boris, who tried his best si that we can see as many animals as possible

The place is very charming, from the get go the guides were absolutely fabulous! The route to the hotel by bus, boat and 15 min walk through the jungle is part of the adventure. The rooms are charming, and the mosquito net turn down service is very appreciated. Our guide Harry was exceptional! Catered the activities to the likes of the group and was extremely knowledgeable! The meals were excellent!

Smooth transfers and sufficient activities to fill our time. Splendid trip to see the Macaws and other birds. Presentations on the conservation projects undertaken by them were very interesting.
