Ecuador: Amazon Jungle Short Break
Overview
Highlights
- Enjoy lunch as you journey to the lodge along the mighty Napo River – and look out for different shore birds, like herons, kingfishers, spoonbills and ospreys.
- Explore the rainforest your way – whether it’s jungle treks, dugout canoe safaris or simply relaxing in a hammock.
- Learn from a local guide about why the rainforest is so important to local communities – and maybe even spend some time with an indigenous family of the Quichuas del Oriente community.
- Spot wildlife with expert guides, including caiman, otters, sloths, parrots, monkeys, hoatzin, monkeys, capybaras and anacondas.
- Get off the beaten track by staying in the depths of the Amazon Jungle – a truly one-in-a-lifetime experience.

The Intrepid Travel Experience
If you’re looking for adventure, you’ve come to the right place. For the past 25 years, we’ve been taking small groups of travelers on unforgettable trips around the world. What makes them unforgettable? Take a look for yourself and discover the Intrepid experience.
Our travelers have three styles of tour to choose from: Basix, Original and Comfort. Each has a different level of inclusions and accommodation, but all have unforgettable real life experiences as part of the package. Travellers can also choose themed trips, such as Family, Sailing or Food, to suit their interests.
Our group size has an average of just ten travellers, which allows us to get off the beaten track, use local accommodation and transport, and really get to know the culture. It also ensures we are contributing to the local economy; by choosing local suppliers we were able to keep AUD 60 million in local economies in 2012. We’re also working hard to reduce our carbon footprint and were the first in our sector to introduce carbon offset trips. This, along with our many corporate sustainability activities, has meant we’re one of the travel industry’s leaders in responsible travel.
Why Intrepid?
- Small groups - average of 10 people per trip
- Sustainability - pioneers for the industry
- Local leaders - authentic perspectives
- Local transport - get close and personal
- Local accommodation - experience real living
- Intrepid travelers - like-minded companions
