DAY 1 – Arrival & Immersion in the Forest
Dinner included
Your journey begins the moment you arrive at Kuyana Amazon Lodge, where our team welcomes you with a native beverage.
After a short introduction to Kuyana’s philosophy — a place created to reconnect people with nature and purpose — settle into your cabin and let the forest embrace you.
Afternoon:
Start your exploration with a guided walk along the Guitarracocha Trail, inspired by an old legend that tells of guitar sounds echoing near its lagoon at night.
The trail leads to Kuyana Island, surrounded by lush vegetation and home to a regenerating ecosystem full of life. From the Kuyana Viewpoint, you’ll admire the powerful flow of the Hollín River, one of the main tributaries of the Napo River, and take in the vast scenery of the rainforest.
(Moderate difficulty: 2.5/5, approx. 1.5 hours total.)
Evening:
As daylight fades, join our Amazon cooking class, where you’ll learn to prepare traditional dishes like maito and chontacuro, and make your own chocolate from native cacao.
End the day with a farm-to-table dinner under the stars, surrounded by the sounds of the forest — a sensory moment that stays with you.
