This tour was Great fun. We walked in the jungle, and swam in a waterfall. The guide was nice and told us many things about plants and animals. We also visited a local Indian community and learned about their life. The canoe ride was nice. It was a long day packed with lots of interesting activites, highly recommended!

It is a great day ! Like most trips having small change is useful. Many activities for one day it was non stop. During the canoe ride most stayed very dry....not ours. I should have left my phone with my bag and wore the rubber boats provided.
We selected the full day Jungle tour by recommendation of our hotel. We wanted a small group, there were five of us. The service was great, the equipment was in good shape and met our needs. We had to pay in cash, so be prepared. The driver was careful and met our needs for bathroom breaks. The guide knew good English, and told us a lot about the jungle, we managed to see a lot considering it is only one day, we loved the lunch and most of all the Indian village experience, highly recommended!
Great option to see a little of the Ecuadorian Jungle, it was only one day, but there were lots of things to do and see, the guide spoke English and was very knowlodgable, we had a great time, thank you pablo for this great experience.
If you are looking for a 1 day excursion from Baños to the Amazonian that has it all: transportation, cool guides, great activities, so many stops packed in a full day adventure at an unbeatable price, then this is for you 👌🏻
The trip was well planned and organized. Our guide, Pedro, took good care of us! We enjoyed the peek into the Amazon. Thank you!
Booked an English tour. I was the only person who spoke English. It wasn't terrible got to practice my Spanish but feel like I missed out on a lot of info. Just about every place offers this same tour. I would recommend booking through your hostel rather than through here.
I booked the tour because it says in three separate places that the guide will be bilingual. It turns out my guide and everyone else on the tour only spoke Spanish. I had no idea what was going on and was unable to learn anything about the jungle or indigenous people because of the language barrier. I was also unprepared for all activities because I couldn’t understand the instructions. They take you to cool places, but If you don’t speak Spanish well and being able to communicate with the guide and fellow travelers is important to you I’d suggest you look elsewhere.
I really enjoyed the Full Day Jungle Tour! Our tour guide was amazing (one of the best I have ever had in my life), and the schedule of the day worked quite well. I had a lot of fun, I felt safe the whole time, and I highly recommend this tour for anybody in or near Baños!
This trip was excellent value for money. I really wanted to get to see the Amazon while I was in Ecuador but couldn't afford to do a multi-day trip so I was really happy to find this one-day jungle tour. From the 'rope of death' to the visit to the Yasuni village, canoeing on the river and making chocolate, there's something for everyone. Highly recommended!
Great Jungle experience for those of you who don't have as much time and money to spend. you can get a real taste of what the jungle is like, we had a great guide, who spoke good English, and gave us good explanation about the different unique plants you can find in the jungle. it was a great experience, thank you Clyde.
We selected the full day Jungle tour by recommendation of our hotel. We wanted a small group and our age group. We were all in our 50's, six of us. The service was great, the equipment was in good shape and met our needs. We had to pay with cash which caught us off guard but a local ATM took care of that. The driver was careful and met our needs for bathroom breaks. The lower mark comes from the guide, It was like he was running a race, stayed way ahead of us, we felt very rushed. This was pretty much the case on the trails we hiked. We loved what we seen, the lunch and most of all the village experience.
Supe de Puyo 2 días antes de mi viaje ... Quedará para siempre en mis memorias. El paseo en canoa, la caminata con botas pantaletas, el almuerzo con pez Tipo ... Paseo digno de repetir
Die Tour hat mir gefallen.Pünkliche Abholung. Der Guide hat für mich extra alles erklärt und in Englisch übersetzt, da alle anderen Spanisch gesprochen haben. Preis-Leistungsverhältnis gut.
The driver guide drove the car super fast recklessly, unaware that he had 4 people in his charge. The best waterfall and a viewpoint.
