Why Extend Your Galapagos Cruise with a Trip to the Amazon?

Unmatched Biodiversity

The Amazon rainforest is one of the most biodiverse spots on the planet, teeming with an astonishing variety of flora and fauna. It’s the perfect place to disconnect, recharge your energy, and immerse yourself in the purity of nature.

Personal Experience at La Selva EcoLodge and Retreat

My name is Maria Soledad Loaiza, and I would like to share my personal experience at La Selva EcoLodge and Retreat, where I celebrated my 40th birthday. The lodge exceeded all my expectations, offering a luxurious blend of 5-star gourmet cuisine, ancestral spa treatments, and complimentary yoga classes. La Selva is truly a pampering establishment surrounded by incredible wildlife.

Seamless Travel from Quito to La Selva EcoLodge

Easy Access

A short 40-minute flight from Quito lands you at El Coca airport. From there, La Selva’s friendly guides and staff greet you with refreshments while they handle your luggage (you’re allowed two bags: one carry-on up to 10 kilos and one checked suitcase up to 23 kilos).

Scenic Journey to the Lodge

After a two-hour motorized canoe ride, we arrived at La Selva’s first deck, where more staff welcomed us. A 30-minute paddle canoe through a small stream led us to one of the most breathtaking views I’ve ever seen. The lodge’s stunning design is something words can hardly capture—luckily, I had my camera to document the moment.

Luxurious Accommodations and Activities

Comfortable Accommodations

La Selva EcoLodge blends luxury with environmental respect, offering accommodations that do not include air conditioning. Nevertheless, the property’s lakeside location and efficient ceiling fans kept us perfectly comfortable throughout our stay.

Exciting Activities

The activities were outstanding. From caiman night canoe rides to close encounters with various wildlife species, every day was an adventure. My favorite moments were observing squirrel monkeys and the impressive views of howler monkeys from the observation tower.

Culinary Delights

The food at La Selva was superb. Be prepared to gain a few extra pounds because the cuisine is both plentiful and delicious. Each meal was a culinary delight that added to the overall exceptional experience.

An Educational and Enriching Experience

Guided Tours

With our naturalist guide and local guide, we discovered so much about the region’s natural biodiversity and ancestral ways of living. Their knowledge and passion for the environment made our stay both educational and enriching.

Warm Hospitality

Miguel, the staff coordinator, and his team were incredibly welcoming. Their pride in their service made us feel like we were visiting friends rather than staying at a hotel. The warm hospitality added a personal touch to our unforgettable journey.
