The Amazon Rainforest
The Amazon Region, known as "el Oriente", is an extremely diverse region located on the eastern portion of the country. Diverse, not only due to the enormous variety of plants, mammals, insects, fishes, birds and reptiles, but also the various indigenous inhabitants, landscapes, and its great cultural wealth. The Ecuadorian Upper Amazon Basin is home to several indigenous nations, each one with its own characteristic features such as language, customs and own Cosmo vision. Considered a natural treasure for the wealth it contains, the Amazon Rainforest is one of the last regions on the planet that, for its high levels of biological and cultural diversity, it is being considered as a strategic area to be preserved. SunWind Travel offers one of the most fantastic places: Napo Wildlife Center, where you can accomplish one of the wildest experiences of your life with the best accommodation that can be obtained in a jungle setting as wild as the Amazon and where you can, at the same time, enjoy the most incredible encounters with nature. To view the tropical rain forest in all its splendor and to have greater opportunities of encounters with animals, it is necessary to go deeply into the Amazon Rainforest. For this reason we have chosen the farthest and most protected place, where the only way to reach it is by air and river navigation. Likewise, for white-river rafting and kayak rides, we have chosen rivers in the low eastern Andes slopes where the mountains join the Amazon plain. Here, the surrounding jungle-covered mountains, the wild and wonderful landscapes, set the stage to provide you with the best experience in the practice of the river sports. A trip to the Amazon Rainforest booked with SunWind Travel is a true adventure into the deepest Ecuadorian "Oriente" where you will feel detached from civilization and in intimate contact with the wild. |
