Reiseverlauf
Abholung von Ihrem Hotel um 6:00 Uhr. Diese Reise führt Sie durch eine großartige Landschaft in den ecuadorianischen Anden. Besuchen Sie die Hacienda Antisanilla – Chakana-Reservat, ein 7.000 Hektar großes Naturschutzgebiet zum Schutz der wichtigsten Andenkondorpopulation Ecuadors. Der abgedeckte Höhenbereich liegt zwischen 10.000 und 12.000 Fuß über dem Meeresspiegel. Wir verbringen den ganzen Tag in der Gegend und halten Ausschau nach Andenkondoren (sollte einfach sein!) und anderen wunderschönen Vögeln wie dem ecuadorianischen Bergstern, der sich von den einzigartigen Blüten des Chuquiraga-Strauchs ernährt. Wir müssen sogar die Augen nach Brillenbären offen halten. Der Paramo ist reich an wichtigen Nahrungsquellen für die überwiegend pflanzenfressende Ernährung der Bären; Die Hauptnahrungsquelle des Andenbären in der Region ist eine Art gemahlene Paramo-Bromelie Puya sp. das in diesem Ökosystem ziemlich häufig vorkommt und ein süßes Saftherz hat. Das Gebiet verfügt über ein Straßennetz und Wanderwege mit unterschiedlichen Schwierigkeitsgraden, sodass Sie große Gebiete in kurzer Zeit zurücklegen können.
Nachdem Sie das Reservat erkundet haben, haben Sie eine wohlverdiente Pause und ein Mittagessen in Tambocondor, wo Sie auch verschiedene Arten von Kolibris wie den Riesenkolibri, den leuchtenden Sonnenstrahl, den Schwarzschwanz-Zugträger und andere Arten in der umliegenden einheimischen Flora und Futterstellen beobachten können. Am Nachmittag kehren Sie zu Ihrem Hotel in Quito zurück.

Incredible day of endemic wildlife & wow close views of the Condors with a superb guide Gabriel who had an incredible knowledge of the birds & other wildlife and plants of the Paramo. Super views of the slopes of Antisana. Will book with Neotropical again.
Excellent experience and very explained by the guide Santiago
¡Muchísimas gracias por su comentario! Nos alegra mucho saber que disfrutó de la experiencia, de los paisajes, la increíble biodiversidad de Ecuador y que la explicación durante el recorrido haya sido clara e interesante. Fue un gusto acompañarlos y compartir toda la experiencia de naturaleza y fauna durante el tour. Esperamos volver a recibirlos pronto en otra aventura por Ecuador o Sudamérica. ¡Gracias por confiar en nosotros!
Amazing!!! Not only for being able to see amazing animals like bears, hummingbirds and condors, but our tour leader, Santiago, is super informative, he really knows what he does.
¡Muchísimas gracias por su comentario y por compartir su experiencia con nosotros! Nos alegra enormemente saber que disfrutó de encuentros tan especiales con osos andinos, colibríes y cóndores, especies realmente emblemáticas de Ecuador. También agradecemos mucho sus palabras sobre Santiago. Para nosotros es muy importante no solo mostrar la fauna y los paisajes, sino también compartir conocimiento, pasión y hacer que cada experiencia sea memorable y enriquecedora. Fue un verdadero placer acompañarlos en esta aventura y esperamos volver a recibirlos muy pronto para seguir explorando juntos la increíble naturaleza de Ecuador y Sudamérica.
It was excellent final day of two weeks solo trip guided by Santiago. Started with good weather conditions and Ecuadorian Hillstar behaving as a true star on the runway. Suddenly, a fog rolled in and it seemed like we wouldn’t get to see the condors after all, but we did. Fortunately we were patient enough and stayed ready with cameras. Condor emerging from the fog was un unforgettable experience!
Dear Bart, Thank you for sharing this moment from your journey. We’re so glad patience paid off and you were able to witness the condors emerging through the fog, truly a special experience. We hope to welcome you again in the future. We send our best!
With our guide, Santiago, we explored the Eastern High Andes around Quito. We travelled into the reserve where we were treated to an extended observation period of an Andean Bear eating one of its favourite meals. Many different birds crossed our path: condors, hummingbirds, owls, caracaras, ibis and others. The scenery, though much of it is now pastoral, is very stunning. Neotropical Trips arranged and executed for us a memorable visit.
We had a wonderful experience with this company. We were treated exceptionally well and enjoyed a wonderful mountain day. Our driver Dario was outstanding, stoping to take pictures any time we wanted, and went out of his way to ensure a positive animal filled day. While we did not see bears, it was not for lack of effort. 10/10 and highly recommended
Was the best tour I have Been on Santago Is a professional. He knows so much information all the animals to history of the country. I would defiantly recommend trying to leave early in the morning to try and see the condors take off. The whole day was just perfect. Can't wait for the next tour I do with Santago.
I booked two day tours from Quito and visited the Chakana Reserve followed by Papallacta and Guango Lodge. Both guides, Dario and Sebastian, were excellent company and very knowledgeable. We managed to have excellent views of the species that we had targeted, so both trips were very successful. I would highly recommend these trips to anyone considering them.
Dear Graham, Thank you very much for taking the time to share your experience. We're thrilled to hear that you enjoyed both day trips to Chakana Reserve and Papallacta/Guango Lodge. Dario and Sebastian are passionate and skilled guides, and we're glad their knowledge and company made your tours both enjoyable and successful. It's wonderful that you had great views of your target species — always the goal for us! We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you again soon for more unforgettable birding adventures. Warm regards, Gabriela General Manager Neotropical Nature and Birding Trips
The owner was very helpful from the beginning and answered my questions. She helped me find a trio tailored to my interests. I went with Santiago to see the condors and the Andean Bear. Santiago was an expert on the subject and explained his previous research on Andean Bears. We were able to spot Condors, Andean Bears, owls, foxes, and the giant hummingbird on the trip. The cost was above average but worth the extra amount for the quality of the experience. We stopped to have a delicious lunch.
Dear Scott, Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience! It was a pleasure helping you plan a tour that matched your interests, and I’m thrilled to hear it delivered such memorable sightings — from condors and owls to the incredible Andean Bear. Santiago’s deep knowledge and field experience with these species truly enrich the journey, and we’re glad it made a difference in your day. We also appreciate your kind words about the quality of the experience — we strive to ensure every detail, from wildlife encounters to meals, meets the highest standard. We hope to welcome you back for another adventure soon! Warm regards, Gabriela General Manager Neotropical Nature and Birding Trips
I hired a private guide (English speaking) and we spent all day birding in Chakana and Antisana (6am to 5pm). Saw condors (only 135 left), black faced Ibis, carunculated Caracara ( all threatened), great Egret ( out of range), many species of hummingbirds and a score of other birds, along with a white face bear!!
