Day 2 Fly to Amazon. La Selva Lodge 
(L,D) A short flight takes you over the high Andes and down to the Amazon frontier town of Puerto Francisco de Orellana (called Coca by the locals). From here you travel by motorized canoe downriver for two hours on the Napo River before arriving to La Selva -- your home for the next week and base for an incredible Amazon travel adventure! You will discuss the many options for excursions during your visit with the naturalist guides and set out an itinerary based on your interests.
Days 3-5 La Selva
(3B,3L,3D) La Selva Eco Lodge brings you as close to nature as possible. You will find a lake (fishing, canoeing, and swimming), wildlife (birds, monkeys, turtles, caiman, owls, etc.), virgin rainforest, an observation tower, a butterfly farm, rivers and much more! Guided excursions are customized to fit your interests and are led by native and naturalist guides to accompany you on your day and night adventures. Walk to a local community to see traditional village life. Go out with your guides for birding and wildlife viewing. Every night, after dinner, guides lead canoe or walking trips to view nocturnal animals such as caiman, monkeys, insects and owls.
