Itinerary
Day 1
Departing Quito early, we begin our journey with a scenic 3.5-hour drive through the Andes to the Amazon basin. Afternoon kayaking on the calm, Class I Arajuno River.
Day 2
We begin with an early visit to a clay lick, where colorful Amazon parrots gather each morning to consume mineral-rich clay. Next stop is a visit to the nearby Kichwa community for an immersive cultural experience & visit to the local school supported by our program. Next, we hit the kayaks again for the return journey down the Arajuno River, and time to explore a private reserve and lagoon in search of monkeys, colorful birds, and other wildlife.
After lunch, we head back to Quito, arriving around 6:00 PM.
