Highly recommended tour! Chris is an amazing guide, he’s very knowledgeable and experienced which made our experience much better, specially that it was our first visit to Ecuador and S. America. We will definitely use Activexpedition again and request Chris as our tour guide.
I did a 4 day kayaking trip in the Amazon with this tour company. I had a pleasure of being on this trip with Daniel (tour guide) and Churi (cook, caiman hunter, multitalented extraordinaire). The basic accommodation is better than basic in my opinion with a clean bathroom (with shower!) and an actual bed. I felt cared for and got to experience the Amazon at its fullest. Daniel is knowledgeable and loves being a tour guide. You can feel the care and enthusiasm as a result. Couldn't have asked for more. One tiny improvement could be the company's clear information on bus options from Quito to El Coca in the future. It was a bit confusing as a person who doesn't know much Spanish even with extensive research online. Daniel was very helpful in this regard.
Thank you so much for your review!
We had a great 4 day trip. The kayaking on the first two days was peaceful and we really liked staying at indigenous village overnight. My favorite was the rafting on day 3 on the category 3 rapids. The local guides Christian partners with really know the river well and take safety very seriously. The rafting is a real rush and I would like to do more of it in future trips!
Benedict, thanks for the review, we are very glad you enjoyed this amazon adventure, we hope to see you soon!
We did the 5 day Kajak Waorani expedition. It was the best trip on our 6 month south america journey so far. We really enjoyed diving into a completely different world. The trip was very well organized, the guides nice and with a lot of knowledge. If you are looking for a luxury trip this is the wrong for you. Basic but very nice accommodation in the forest. A lot of animals and insects to see and feel in form of bites :) the best experience was the jungle walk where you would get lost without a local waorani guy. As well as spending a lot of time with the family drinking chicha, playing with the blowgun or with the many animals around the house.
Manuel, thank you for the review and also for booking our most unique expedition, we can tell, you have collected amazing memories of your visit to the true Amazon.
Christian was an amazing guide into the Amazon. He took us to amazing place and introduce us to local culture and people. He is truly passionate about sustainable eco tourism and cares deeply about supporting the communities he engages with. This was clear by amazing hospitality and generosity that was shown to us each step of our adventure. He was a great communicator and fun person to hangout with, also he told some really good stories. Each day we did a new amazing active adventure that I would have never discovered on my own. We stuck to the itinerary with some added bonuses when time allowed. My partner is vegan and he made sure she was happily fed the whole time. I highly recommend this trip for anyone looking to learn and adventure in the Ecuadorian Amazon.
Devyn, we are so glad you enjoyed our Active Amazon trip, we are always very proud of having customers that care about Eco tourisim like you, let us know when you are ready for a next adventure.
We had the trip of a lifetime with Christian! We could not be happier with our Amazon trip and all the active adventures we went on. Christian was a great and personable guide throughout the trip. He stuck closely to our itinerary and catered to our dietary needs. What made this trip so special was the local and native connections Christain has with the Jungle communities and the hospitality and kindness they showed us. I would most definitely recommend this trip to anyone who loves to be active and seeks to learn more about the Amazon culture and community.
Thanks for your kind review, for us is always a pleasure to help you plan this active adventure in the Amazon, we already miss you. please comeback soon
Last minute, trip! And wow, what an amazing time my sister & daughter had visiting the Amazonian regions of Ecuador. Our personal tour guide, Christian, was a delight to have from start to finish, catering to all of our touristy needs! You want to see monkeys ok we can divert over to Misahualli. And monkeys did we see! You need Wi-Fi in the middle of the Amazon? Ok we can stop at the Rio Arajuno bridge (mind you, we’re kayaking the river) where there’s a small shack/shop where guy can let us use his Wi-Fi. You guys love soccer? Ok let me get a game of soccer going with the local Kichwa kids that we’ll be visiting in just a while. One of the most memorable events would have to be the hike through the Amazonian rain forest. I have always wondered what’s behind all those huge trees and such one sees canoeing or kayaking down a river within the rain forests. Having a local Kichwa leading us through his lands of the rainforest, us with our rubber rainboots on (to protect against snakes that may strike out at anytime), teaching us how one survives off the land, learning about all of the medicinal uses of plants and trees was amazing. I can’t say enough about Christian and the people he brought with him or brought into the tour to make it that much more interesting and unforgettable. Thank you Christian! We have already talked about our plans to return and do some hardcore MTB riding. Apparently that is one of Christian’s pastimes and apparently he does a great adventure tour MTBing the volcanoes and even the Galapagos, another bucket list destination that would be amazing to do Christian style-biking and boating. Thank you again for a wonderful and unforgettable time. Until our next South American adventure Christian ..!!
Thanks for your review! we are glad you enjoyed your Amazon Kayaking adventure with us! please let us know when you are ready to come for another fanctastic holiday !
An incredible and unforgettable experience. All the people who attend to you are expectacular and give you a super personalized treatment (you are part of them) something that is important in these moments of pandemic is that they always follow the safety and health protocols (they always take care of you). Our guide Christian was a wonderful human being who helps you in anything you need and makes you live the experience 100%. Highly recommended!!!!
Andre, muchas gracias por tu review, para nosotros fue un placer poder guiarles en esta experiencia en la Amazonía, esperamos que muy pronto podamos vernos en una nueva experiencia de viaje.

An amazing experience!!!! Full of beautiful moments with friends and family!!! 10000% recommended! Very professional guides, with very interesting stories in each place, I felt safe all the time, we had fun in all the activities and ate delicious! Truthfully one of the best experiences of my life for the activities, the connection with nature and the camaraderie we live! Every place we went has its magic and I really liked the respect for nature! This is tourism 💚 🇪🇨
