Tagestour im Amazonas-Regenwald Puyopungo

OK so this is not a review of this specific tour but I had to leave this feedback. Unfortunately, we booked this private tour through Wonderful Equador (knowing we were paying more but worth it) but ended up on a full bus tour. We notified the tour company when we were put on a bus tour and they did refund our money but at that point we had no choice but to pay and go on the large group bus tour. Was very disappointed in missing out on a private tour although they were some special highlights of a very long tour day with a very large group.

My husband & I took a tour during our honeymoon. Delfin was a fantastic guide, I can’t say enough good things about our trip. We did an overnight in the rainforest, the hike was a good doable pace for anyone uphill during which he pointed out plants & insects while explaining their lifestyle or medicinal purposes. The waterfall was beautiful & just one stop on the amazing adventure! The food was delicious & ample, my partner & I had a hard time finishing every plate because there was so much delicious food. We also stopped by viewpoints & a chocolate farm & got to see the process, had an unexpectedly comfortable overnight, saw wild monkeys, an indigenous community with beautiful crafts for sale, & a canoe ride down a gorgeous river. Delfin made the trip fun & memorable, pointing out many insects during a night hike. He was fun & considerate & kind, we felt lucky we had him as our guide. Wonderful Ecuador tours worked with us & our schedule to make it happen, after shopping many similar excursion companies we felt lucky to land with this one! We definitely both recommend booking through them, ask for Delfin!

Defin and Angel were both SO AMAZING. Such a great and memorable trip - we got home last night and are still talking about all of the great things we experienced along the way. Our guide was funny and spoke English well, teaching us so much about the rainforest and catching things we would have missed with his trained eye. 11/10 - would book this trip again. We shopped a lot of tours but these guys worked with us on every step of the adventure and we're so kind and thoughtful along the way. Could tell you more about it but you should book with Wonderful ecuador and see for yourself!

This all day excursion with great homemade lunch was worth every penny. The guides were fantastic and so knowledgeable, we got to experience all the wonders of the Amazon from sight seeing, hiking, canoeing, culture learning, just a full day of fun and adventure. ❤️

A really fun day giving us the taste of the Amazon rainforest only 1.5 hours out of Quito. The hike through the rainforest and swim in the waterfall was made by our awesome guide Delfin who was so knowledgeable and introduced us to so many native plants and insects. We had a beautiful lunch at a local restaurant and got to toast and grind our own 100% cacao. Only tip is to wear long arms and legs and deet insect repellent as the mosquitos and no-see-ums were fierce!

So many experiences and impressions! Really worth the trip. Fantastic nature, views and different culture. Highly recommended!

This was amazing. Marcial and Angel were so kind and interesting. My mom injured herself prior to our trip and was afraid she wouldn’t be able to do it. These two wonderful men took care of her and made sure she was able to participate and have a fantastic experience. The trip itself was beautiful. The pacing was great, we did not feel rushed and we got to truly enjoy each part. I’m really glad we booked the private tour rather than the big bus even though it cost a little more. The tour felt more personal-like four friends having fun rather than 30 strangers piled on a bus. Loved it!

We had a wonderful full day tour in the Amazon rainforest organized by the Wonderful Ecuador. Our guide Christopher (Chivito) and our driver Carlos were super cool and fun to spend the day with. The day was packed with activities and we made so many stops, from the visit to the local market tasting many previously unknown fruits, trek in the rainforest to la Cascada de Hola Vida, to the visit with the indigenous family and the cacao farm where we had the opportunity to make 100% dark chocolate, we learned SO much about the Amazon rainforest and the communities residing there. The lunch that was included in the tour with steamed tilapia was probably one of the best meals we have had in Ecuador. Also we got free Spanish lessons all day from both Chivito and Carlos, two of the chillest peple we have met. All in all we highly recommend doing this tour with Wonderful Ecuador. You won't regret it! Chevere!
