The Anakonda Amazon Cruise Itinerary

Welcome aboard! Our journey kicks off in Quito, the pulsing heart of Ecuador. A swift 30-minute flight whisks us to Coca, a gateway to the verdant mysteries of the Amazon. Here, we embark on a 90-minute river cruise aboard a motorized canoe, slicing through the Napo River's waters, bound for the Anakonda Amazon Cruise. Aboard, you're greeted with warm smiles and a crash course in tropical wonders by our expert naturalist guides. After settling in, join us for an evening stroll under the canopy, where the rainforest pulses with life—nocturnal creatures awaken, and the adventure truly begins.

Dive deeper into the Amazon as we navigate to the mystical Pañacocha Lagoon, where the black waters reflect the dense, emerald wilderness. Here, piranhas swim beneath the surface, and the air vibrates with the calls of exotic birds. Explore this lush paradise with our guides, then savor an Amazon-style barbecue onshore. The afternoon offers a splash of excitement with kayaking or a tranquil swim. As dusk falls, gather for an enlightening session about the Amazon’s intricate ecosystems.

Rise with the sun for a spectacle rarely seen: colorful parrots flocking to the mineral-rich clay licks. This dazzling display is a photographer’s dream and a vivid start to the day. Later, we visit a Kichwa women’s community project. Engage with their traditions, support local crafts, and get hands-on with our Charapas Turtle Conservation efforts—an experience that connects you directly with the pulse of the Amazon community.

Your adventure continues in the tranquil waters of the Indillama River, an offshoot of the mighty Napo. Paddle in kayaks, perfect for up-close encounters with wildlife in their natural habitat. After a day of exploration, unwind on the observation deck, where the jungle unfurls below a blanket of stars. For the thrill-seekers, a night jungle trek might reveal some of the Amazon’s secretive nocturnal residents.

Morning brings a cruise to the lower Napo River’s vibrant bird habitats. In the afternoon, we journey into the heart of Yasuni National Park, a biodiversity hotspot and the sanctuary of the enchanting pink dolphin. Participate in our conservation efforts and learn about these mystical creatures’ habitat. Our day ends with the Secoya community, who share their ancestral wisdom and culinary secrets in the making of traditional cassava bread.

Today, immerse yourself in the daily rhythms of a Kichwa family living along the Napo. Discover their customs and connection to the river. Back on the Anakonda, our chef invites you to a cooking demonstration, revealing the flavors of Ecuador. Spend the afternoon crafting, relaxing in the hot tub, or kayaking. As night falls, why not stargaze from the deck, cocktail in hand?

Our morning starts with an ascent of a towering kapok tree. From the top, gaze out over the forest canopy and feel the vastness of the Amazon. Later, trek through the primary forest to spot endemic flora and fauna, including the peculiar hoatzin, known locally as the "stinkbird." It’s a day filled with natural wonders, offering a profound connection to the world’s most vibrant ecosystem.

As our Amazonian adventure draws to a close, we return to Puerto Providencia. Disembark with a treasure trove of memories and a new understanding of this incredible ecosystem. The motorized canoe carries us back to Coca, where our paths may diverge, but the story of our journey will resonate long after.
