Breakfast: Begin your day with a hearty meal to energise for the adventures ahead. Get ready with your wellington boots as today we'll be venturing into the Territory of the Napurunas, exploring their culture and the forest with its cascading waterfalls. (Transfer to the Monkey´s beach: 35 min)

A renowned tourist destination, the quaint town of Misahualli, Ecuador, rests at the confluence of the Misahuallí and Napo rivers. This tranquil, off-the-beaten-path town boasts stunning jungle vistas and a sprawling sandy beach. Among Misahualli's most beloved residents are its monkeys, often spotted strolling along the beach or venturing into the central park of the town. From here, we'll continue our journey aboard a canoe to reach the indigenous community...

At this destination, we immerse ourselves in the rich traditions of the Kichwa culture. Engaging in casual conversation, we gain insight into their daily routines and customs. Guided by a local host, we have the opportunity to learn the process of making chicha, a traditional drink (tasting is optional!), and witness the spiritual cleansing rituals that continue to be practised within the surrounding community. Additionally, we partake in a blowgun target-shooting contest, though competing with the natives proves to be quite the challenge! This intimate and distinctive experience allows us to explore the nuances and shared aspects of diverse cultures, fostering a deeper understanding and appreciation for our differences. Afterwards, we proceed to the Huaoranies Lagoon

where we'll continue our journey aboard a paddle canoe on the lagoon. During our excursion, we'll have the opportunity to observe various bird species, including the famous hoatzins, caimans, and the gigantic Amazonian fish, the PAICHE. Following our canoe adventure, we'll embark on a brief walk on the island. Make sure to have your camera ready, as the animals are often camouflaged among the trees. Return to Misahualli Port by motorised canoe to continue to the Waterfall Trekking

As we near the riverbank, we pause to enjoy our Box Lunch amidst the tranquil surroundings. The trail winds alongside a meandering river, weaving through impressive rock formations. Over centuries, the river has sculpted natural chutes and formed small pools along its course. Our journey begins with the sighting of a modest 10-foot waterfall. While not our final destination, it serves as a preview of the grandeur awaiting us further ahead. En route, the landscape captivates us with its striking beauty as the jungle surrounds us. We tread carefully, navigating through the dense foliage, mindful of trees, low branches, and colossal rocks. Amidst this serene environment, the only sounds are the gentle rush of water and the distant calls of unseen animals. Though concealed from sight, their presence is palpable. Insects abound, some adorned with vibrant hues that momentarily give pause, prompting thoughts of potential danger. Yet, we cannot help but marvel at their exquisite beauty.

Continuing on with the last leg of our journey, we'll reach the city of Tena. Here, you'll have the chance to extend your adventure to Baños de Agua Santa in the province of Tungurahua or head back to Quito.
