Visão Geral do Tour

Tapir Lodge is located in the heart of the Cuyabeno Wildlife Reserve, one of the most biodiverse ecosystems in the Ecuadorian Amazon. Surrounded by blackwater rivers, lagoons, and primary rainforest, the lodge offers an authentic ecotourism experience rooted in conservation, scientific interpretation, and respect for ancestral knowledge. The Killas Experience revives the use of Killas, traditional dugout canoes carved from a single tree trunk and historically used by Amazonian Indigenous communities as their primary means of navigation. Exploring Cuyabeno aboard these vessels allows for a deep connection with the natural environment, river cycles, and Indigenous worldview. The program combines traditional navigation, wildlife observation, interpretive forest walks, and cultural encounters, offering a mindful, quiet, and meaningful way to discover the Amazon.
