   Enter to another world

   We will start our adventure in El Coca City, where we will drive through the Auca road for two hours to the Shiripuno River, the entrance to the Yasuni.

   From here, we start our kayaking adventure. We will traverse along the meandering Shiripuno

   River.

   While you enter the Yasuni, you can enjoy the lush green sea of rainforest and its unique

   inhabitants since you will likely get a good look at some of the different animal species that live

   in this magical place. You can find toucans, macaws, and monkeys along the way.

   After a four-hour expedition, you will finally arrive at our Safari Camp's cozy installations. Our carefully selected staff will greet you, and you will have a welcome dinner this evening around

   7:00 p.m.

   Intimate encounters with ancient cultures

   We start our adventure early to seize the best of the day. You can enjoy a healthy breakfast at 6:30 am before heading to the river for a 30-minute paddle. After a 300-meter walk carrying the boats, you can explore and navigate through the Anaconda Lagoon. This amazing oxbow lake is a special ecosystem and home to the Eunectes murinus, the largest and biggest anaconda species.

   Around 3:30 pm, we will go to Gaba's house. Gaba is the head of his family and a community leader. With him, you'll learn some local legends and be part of their culture. Learn how the Wao spears are crafted, and use a blow-dart to understand how they hunt and sustain themselves. You can also appreciate their local art and jewelry made from the surrounding materials.

   After this experience, we'll head back to the Camping area to wrap up the day—but not before having dinner at approximately 7:00 p.m.
