Depart from Quito in the morning and after a 30-minute flight arrive at Francisco de Orellana (Coca). Arrive in Coca and transfer to the docks to embark on a motorized canoe. Navigate down the river for about 90 minutes before meeting the M/V Anakonda. Throughout the journey, you have a chance to admire the rainforest landscape and sand banks of the great Napo River.

Immediately after boarding the M/V Anakonda, continue navigating downstream. Settle into your cabin and familiarize yourself with the ship as you sail. In the evening, disembark and take an evening walk to experience the forest's nocturnal activity.

Continue down the Panayacu River delta. We will embark on a canoe trip to Pañacocha Lake (“Piranha Lagoon” in the native Kichwa language), an ecosystem flooded by blackwater river water. The surrounding protected rainforest is home to primates and birds species which we will be able to spot during a walk with our guides. Enjoy a delicious Amazon-style BBQ meal and refreshing beverages at a nearby camping site. We will take part in aquatic activities such as kayaking and/or swimming.

In the morning, set out to visit one of the most amazing spectacles located on this side of the western Amazonia, known as Parrot Clay Licks, these unique pools of mud are rich in minerals and attract hundreds of parrots, parakeets and amazons every day. Weather permitting, have a chance to visit this astonishing natural phenomenon.

Later visit the Sani Warmi Kichwa Interpretation Center, where a group of Kichwa women speak and share their customs, cuisine and daily life with you. They have created the center in order to showcase their culture. The visit to the Sani Warmi community is a unique opportunity to learn about Amazonian lifestyles along the Napo River. You also have the opportunity to buy handmade crafts, local products and souvenirs as well as the opportunity to participate in the Charapas Turtle Conservation that we support together with the community.

Your trip into Ecuadorian Amazon, ends here, as you must begin our trip back to Puerto Providencia. During your last night in the Ecuadorian Amazon enjoy a farewell cocktail with the ship´s staff.

Before sunrise, navigate towards Puerto Providencia, it is from here that you must disembark the M/V Anakonda, in order to be transferred by a motorized canoe to El Coca (1-hour ride). From Coca, fly to Quito and prepare for your return home.
