Itinerary

1 DAY TOUR
Rafting Class III - Jatun Yacu River -

 

Depart 9:00 am from Akangau Jungle Expeditions by private car to the Jatunyacu River at the Cando Village.  Before entering the rafts, our expert guides will give a thorough orientation on rafting safety, rowing techniques and any other information needed to ensure a fun and safe adventure.

Then, it’s time to strap on those helmets and ride the mighty rapids of the Jatunyaku River! The rivers snakes through the incredible Amazon jungle and when you aren’t splashing through rapids you will be amazed by the immense beauty of the jungle.

Halfway through the ride, the rafts make a stop at the river’s edge for lunch, which is provided by Akangau Jungle Expeditions.

Once refueled and nourished, hop back in the boats to continue on down the river until we reach our final destination in Puerto Napo.  A vehicle will be waiting to take the group back to Tena.  Estimated arrival time is 3 pm but may vary depending on the river’s water levels.

We had an incredible time on this Amazon tour with my partner and his family. From start to finish, everything was well organized, and the experience was unforgettable. The lodge itself is pretty simple, but it was always clean and comfortable. What really made our stay special was the warm and welcoming staff, who were more than happy to show us around and make us feel at home. Our guide Ben was absolutely fantastic. He was enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and always accommodating. He made sure everyone in our group, including someone with a sprained ankle and my partner’s dad, could enjoy the tour by adjusting activities as needed. His passion for the Amazon was contagious, and we learned so much from him. The itinerary was packed with amazing experiences, from making chocolate to visiting waterfalls and spotting wildlife like monkeys. Every day brought something new and exciting, and we truly felt immersed in the beauty of the rainforest. Overall, this was a wonderful adventure, and we would highly recommend it to anyone looking for an authentic and well-organized Amazon tour!

Beautiful location. But a poorly organized trip. Especially when it came to arrival/departures, many things were unclear. Did not get to experience the things promised on the itinerary. Little care for details. I would not do it again.

I enjoyed my two night excursion with my guide Efrain. He made sure i understood him and helped all along the way. The facilities could have been fresher and newly painted, but it was fine. The food was good, they provided what I had requested. We didn’t see wildlife or birds, but heard a lot of sounds in the jungle.
