Experience one of the most exciting outdoor activities in Ecuador: whitewater rafting on the Hollín River. Guided by our certified rafting professionals, navigate Class II and III rapids while surrounded by lush rainforest landscapes and abundant wildlife.

Midway through the journey, stop at a river beach for a picnic-style lunch, with time to swim, rest, and enjoy the serenity of the jungle.
(Difficulty: 3.5/5 – approx. 6 hours total)

Back at the lodge, take part in a traditional Amazon cooking class. Learn to prepare local dishes such as maito and chontacuro, followed by a hands-on chocolate-making experience using native cacao.
