Just over an hour outside of the city you can disappear into the wilds of the cloudforest. A visit to the Bellavist Cloudforest Reserve is a must if you have some extra time in the Quito area. I only did a day trip to the reserve, while worth it, I would recommend an overnight. Just sitting at the lodge you can see dozens of hummingbird species on the feeders spread around the lodge. That experience alone is well worth the trip! Please note: These photos are NOT zoomed in!

The group ventures out on guided hikes through the reserve to learn about the cloudforest ecosystem and the amazing diversity of species that coexist here. There is such a beautiful stillness in the clouds among the trees. I did spy one of my favorite birds, a Toucan!

Tony and Shannon were always quick to answer my questions and requests. They booked my Upper Mississippi cruise perfectly. They made sure that my dietary needs were met which is a big deal for me. I have the utmost confidence with their assistance.

Angela was fantastic! She was thoughtful, helpful, and prompt in her responses without being intrusive. She accommodated our large group and was genuinely excited for us when it all worked out. Can't say enough good things! This is our second trip booking through Adventure Life and we will definitely do it again.
