Upper Napo River canoe trip

Río Napo

Ride a long-tail canoe down the Río Napo to visit Kichwa communities, an animal rescue centre and riverside rainforest.

From Misahuallí port, a motorised long canoe takes you down the broad Napo River, the standard route of the Upper Napo region. Along the way you can learn to make cacao and chicha at a Kichwa community, try gold panning and blowpipe shooting, stop at the AmaZOOnico rescue centre, or watch parrots and herons on riverside sandbars. Half-day or full-day tours can be booked in Misahuallí town for about USD 30-60. You can also stay at riverside jungle lodges and join night walks through the rainforest.
